DRONES
Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), or drones, are among the most transformative technologies of the 21st century, reshaping defense, industry, research, and everyday life. This comprehensive volume offers a global, interdisciplinary examination of drone technology, charting its progression from early radio-controlled aircraft to today’s intelligent, autonomous systems.Across nine concise chapters, the book delivers a clear, step-by-step understanding of UAV evolution, core engineering principles, and real-world applications. It spans the full arc of the drone revolution—from manually controlled prototypes of the early 1900s to fifth-generation, AI-driven swarms that define modern aerospace innovation. Each chapter integrates historical context, technical foundations, and forward-looking insights.Key topics include:A chronological overview of UAV generations and their defining capabilitiesAerodynamics, propulsion, control systems, and sensor integrationApplications in defense, agriculture, logistics, environmental monitoring, and smart citiesAdvances in autonomy, artificial intelligence, swarm coordination, and quantum navigationGlobal perspectives on policy, ethics, sustainability, and emerging research.Drawing on contributions from leading international experts, this book serves as a valuable reference for engineering students, researchers, UAV designers, policymakers, and industry practitioners. Authoritative and forward-thinking, it captures not only how drones have transformed the skies, but how they continue to shape the future of mobility, security, and sustainable technology.

Alive
A timely examination of a wide range of projects exploring the boundaries of what it means to be alive, speculating on what 'life' is, and how humankind will (or will not) fit into a new order of hybrid species: a sort of sci-fi guidebook to lab-built humans. A silicone jellyfish with a rat’s heart, a drone that smells using the antenna of a moth, wearables made from cultured human skin, an AI-populated digital snack bar in the metaverse. These projects and many more offer a mind-bending, head-turning vision of the future that Madeline Schwartzman demonstrates is just around the corner. Curated from new developments in synthetic biology, artificial intelligence, robotics, engineering, biology and art, this broad-ranging survey demonstrates the myriad ways in which our perception of what it means to be alive has dramatically changed. Where do we draw the new lines? Are there any boundaries we should not cross? And what if… ? By examining these new ‘beings’, Alive maps out a vision of new partnerships, uncanny hybrids and collaborative intelligences, as science fiction rapidly becomes science fact.
