Sustainability is a critical issue for the construction industry. In the short term, sustainability is often seen as a 'must do' item. In the longer term, all contractors will be seeing it as a source of competitive advantage. Public sector construction, infrastructure and other large projects such as the Thames Gateway and the Olympics in 2012 are all being driven down this route by pressure from Government. Uly Ma's No Waste is an extremely practical guide to managing sustainability in construction that draws on input from all the related stakeholders: the construction industry itself, the clients, designers and architects and the trades. The book explores how the industry can transform itself from business as before to business as it should be, from the micro level of good site practices to setting the right policies that drives a company onwards. The text covers the management of sustainability and the accompanying CD ROM includes a wealth of material such as tool kits, templates and activities that can be shared throughout the organisation and used for team meetings, communication and training.

Talking Safety summarises in a short user-friendly read the key element of safety leadership - the management and supervisor 'walk and talk'. Safety standards are set by a combination of three things: first, the basic systems: risk assessments, procedures, training, inductions and maintenance; second, the amount of objective learning about the inevitable weaknesses in these systems achieved from a ’Just Culture’ perspective; and third, the quality of ’transformational’ safety leadership which means coaching not telling, praising not criticising, leading by example and maximising front-line ownership and involvement. A good ’walk and talk’ is the only methodology that covers all of these issues and really should be embedded as ’part of the way we do things around here’. It is the centrepiece of any world class safety culture. Although covering all the key safety research findings by academics including Sidney Dekker, Andrew Hopkins and James Reason as well as latest influencing skills techniques from recent advances such as ’nudge’ theory it is written in an accessible style using everyday examples and case studies. You can use any of the five simple steps it outlines to make a difference day to day. Employ its advice fully and it will help you embed safety thinking, transform your safety culture and make safety part of ’the way we do things around here’.

It is innate in human being to discover and explore what they do not know and the ocean is one of those. The sea covers 71% of the earth's surface. We know the five great oceans are: Pacific, Atlantic, Indian, Arctic and Antarctic but we know only the 10% of the deep sea, and we know less than 10% of the creatures that live there. Definitely one of the factors that has played as an antagonist in the knowledge of the sea, was the absence of technologies to explore the depths. Fortunately in 60 years, man has made great strides, managing to get to touch even the deepest point of the abyss, the Mariana Trench and this is thanks to modern technology as ROV. The ROVs are used in scientific research, in the Oil & Gas, defense, research for humanitarian purposes, in the construction and maintenance of marine culture, such as support to renewable energy, nuclear, in archeology, in the hunt for treasures and openings of sea mines. Many people are wondering what ROVs are and what they are used for, others are wondering how to become a ‘ROV Operator’. The purpose of this manual is not only to give an answer to these questions but also to teach future ROV pilots how to become professionals marine robotics.
