You`ve just spent a day on the water under a sweltering sun. You sit back, enjoying the seclusion of a remote anchorage, lulled by the rattle of ice in your cold drink. A pretty picture, but a rare one aboard cruising boats. A house is never without its utility umbrella, but when you pull your boat`s shore-power plug you`re on your own. Even good refrigeration systems use a lot of energy. & bad ones? Erase those ice cubes from your tropical fantasy. ” Refrigeration for Pleasureboats” explains how the cruising sailor can acquire the amenities
- even the necessities
- of an efficient onboard refrigeration system. Whether you`re off for two days or two years, you must balance the highest possible cooling capacity with the lowest possible energy consumption. Calder explains clearly & logically how & why refrigeration components work, how to keep them working efficiently & economically, & what to look for when something goes wrong. Boat refrigeration systems are phenomenally expensive. A modest refrigerator/freezer system, professionally built & installed, can cost more than $4, 000. Yet these units can still have unpleasant side effects
- such as killing the boat`s batteries.” Refrigeration for Pleasureboats” provides all the step-by-step information an amateur needs to design & build a custom refrigeration unit that will cost far less than half the price of an off-the-shelf unit & will likely run better with far less drain on the batteries. With Calder`s maintenance & troubleshooting tips, you`ll be able to keep it running for years to come & keep those ice cubes tinkling in that frosted glass.

Refuge: Transforming A Broken Refugee System

An eye-opening account of the migrant crisis which shows why our global refugee regime is broken and how it can be fixed Europe is facing its greatest refugee crisis since the Second World War, yet the institutions responding to it remain virtually unchanged from those created in the post-war era. As neighbouring countries continue to bear the brunt of the Syrian catastrophe, European governments have enacted a series of ill-considered gestures, from shutting their borders to welcoming refugees without a plan for their safe passage or integration upon arrival. With a deepening crisis and a xenophobic backlash in Europe, it is time for a new vision for refuge.Going beyond the scenes of desperation which have become all-too-familiar in the past few years, Alexander Betts and Paul
Collier show that this crisis offers an opportunity for reform if international policy-makers focus on delivering humane, effective and sustainable outcomes - both for Europe and for countries that border conflict zones.Refugees need more than simply food, tents and blankets, and research demonstrates that they can offer tangible economic benefits to their adopted countries if given the right to work and education. An urgent and necessary work, Refuge sets out an alternative vision that can empower refugees to help themselves, contribute to their host societies, and even rebuild their countries of origin.
