O istorie ingenioasa si antrenanta a universului, Pamintului, vietii si omului, o poveste care merge de la Big Bang, cind nu eram nimic, pina la aparitia civilizatiei si la noi, cei de astazi. Bill Bryson pleaca de la propria experienta de elev care, intrigat de o imagine a Pamintului in sectiune, citeste manualul de stiinte ca sa gaseasca aici un amestec de lucruri de neinteles – mai putin raspunsurile la ceea ce ii stirnise curiozitatea, inclusiv cum si de unde stim toate aceste lucruri.

In her career as a science reporter, Nell Greenfieldboyce has reported from inside a space shuttle, the bottom of a coal mine, and the control room of a particle collider; she's presented news on the color of dinosaur eggs, ice worms that live on mountaintop glaciers, and signs of life on Venus. In this, her debut book, she delivers a wholly original collection of powerful, emotionally raw, and unforgettable personal essays that probe the places where science touches our lives most intimately.

What has quantum physics taught us about consciousness and the nature of reality? Are we living in a simulation? In order for matter to exist, does it need to be observed? Join Dr. Trevor Lohman as he grapples with these questions and others, plunging listeners into a sea of quantum strangeness while simultaneously helping them navigate these incredibly choppy waters.

В своей книге автор рассказывает об инструментальной транскоммуникации (ИТК) — области исследований, которая предполагает контакт через технические приборы с уровнями существования, недоступными для восприятия пятью органами чувств. Проще говоря, с иным разумом, находящимся за гранью видимого. Из этой книги вы узнаете:. • что такое ИТК, каковы ее этапы развития и методы;. • какие правила техники безопасности необходимо соблюдать при ИТК;. • какие отечественные разработки в области ИТК существуют;. • что представляют собой результаты транскоммуникации на реальных примерах.

Since their advent, antibiotics have saved millions of lives, marking one of the greatest medical advances in our history. Dangerous Miracle weaves together the grand arc of the evolution of antibiotics over millions of years with a history of the past century: first as we mined the earth for naturally occurring antibiotic molecules, then as we learned to synthesise our own.

Voici une histoire radicalement nouvelle de l'énergie qui montre l’étrangeté fondamentale de la notion de transition. Elle explique comment matières et énergies sont reliées entre elles, croissent ensemble, s’accumulent et s’empilent les unes sur les autres. Pourquoi la notion de transition énergétique s’est-elle alors imposée ? Comment ce futur sans passé est-il devenu, à partir des années 1970, celui des gouvernements, des entreprises et des experts, bref, le futur des gens raisonnables ?

Tras el éxito de Y el cerebro creó al hombre, Destino incorpora dos clásicos de Antonio Damasio. Publicado originalmente en 1994, El error de Descartes es un libro de referencia en la literatura sobre ciencia y filosofía. ¿Y cuál es el error de Descartes?

Why are we cruel? Why are we kind? Charles Darwin, the father of modern biology, wrestled with these very questions in order to explain the human race, struggling to fit a loving God into a harsh and challenging universe. Animal behavior scientist and evolutionary biologist Jacob Johnson’s entertaining new take on Darwin’s work explores his crisis of faith, the origin of morality and the evolution of “good” and “evil.”

The world is not as we think it is. We are taught standard accepted beliefs from birth and many of them are not correct or a misunderstanding of the truth. Who am I to say so? At this writing I’m nearly seventy years old and I’ve spent my life observing reality as an engineer and explorer of the unknown. I’ve had many weird and paranormal experiences and done lots of research. Many patterns have made themselves known to me and this is why I make these types of statements. This book is an effort to shed light on these misunderstandings and change your perception of the world we live in.

In this captivating, insightful book, acclaimed physicists Alan Lightman and Martin Rees illuminate the life and work of numerous scientists in order to demystify the scientific process and show that scientists are concerned citizens, just like the rest of us.

What are the moments that make a life? In Francis Crick’s, the decisive moment came in 1951, when he first met James Watson. Their ensuing discovery of the structure of DNA made Crick world-famous. But neither that chance meeting nor that discovery made Crick who he was. As Matthew Cobb shows in Crick, it is another chance encounter, with a line from the writing of Beat poet Michael McClure, that reveals Crick’s character: “THIS IS THE POWERFUL KNOWLEDGE,” it shouted. Crick, having read it, would keep it with him for the rest of his life.

The relationship between science and religion has long been a heated debate and is becoming an ever more popular topic. Drawing on extensive research with over a hundred leading thinkers in the UK—including Martin Rees, Brian Cox, Susan Greenfield, A.C. Grayling, Ray Tallis, Linda Woodhead, Steve Bruce, Adam Rutherford, Robin Dunbar, Francesca Stavrakopoulou, and Iain McGilchrist—The Landscapes of Science and Religion takes the much-needed step of asking what science and religion actually are, before turning to the familiar question of how they relate to one another.

A hilarious guide to what's real (and what's not) in our vast, beautiful (and terrifying) universe.

There are ninety thousand registered dams in the United States, fifty thousand of them classified as “major.” Nearly all of this infrastructure was built during a forty-year period, from 1932 to 1972, in an era of public investment and political consensus that seems inconceivable today. These incredible structures—sometimes called the American Pyramids—helped the country rebound from the Great Depression, brought water and electricity to enormous reaches, helped win World War II for the Allies, and became the basis for decades of prosperous stability.

Phosphorus has played a critical role in some of the most lethal substances on earth: firebombs, rat poison, nerve gas. But it’s also the key component of one of the most vital: fertilizer, which has sustained life for billions of people.

Da sempre misuriamo il mondo. Per conoscerlo ed esplorarlo, per viverci, per interagire con i nostri simili. L'umanità misura per conoscere il passato, comprendere il presente, progettare il futuro. Ci sono voluti però millenni perché due rivoluzioni, quella scientifica iniziata con Galileo e quella francese, avviassero il percorso per rendere il sistema di misura condiviso e non più basato su deperibili artefatti umani, ma su elementi invariabili e universali della natura.
