This 10-part history of mathematics reveals the personalities behind the calculations: the passions and rivalries of mathematicians struggling to get their ideas heard. Professor Marcus du Sautoy shows how these masters of abstraction find a role in the real world and proves that mathematics is the driving force behind modern science.

The Physics Book sets out more than 80 key concepts and discoveries that have defined the subject and influenced our technology since the beginning of time. With the focus firmly on unpicking the thought behind each theory - as well as exploring when and how each idea and breakthrough came about - seven themed chapters examine the history and developments in areas such as energy and matter, and electricity and magnetism, as well as quantum, nuclear, and particle physics.

In The Labyrinth of Logic, science communicator Serena Quillan invites you on a journey through ten of the most bewildering and thought-provoking paradoxes in philosophy and science. These are not merely intellectual riddles, but profound challenges to the very foundations of knowledge, identity, time, consciousness, and reality itself.

In this fascinating journey across science, philosophy, and perception, Top 10 Mind-Bending Concepts of Time pulls back the curtain on the most perplexing force in the universe. From Einstein’s relativity to quantum strangeness, from the cosmic clock of the universe to the ticking of our own minds, this book explores the ten most astonishing ideas that challenge everything we think we know about time.

When leading Princeton physicist Paul Steinhardt began working in the 1980s, scientists thought they knew all the conceivable forms of matter. The Second Kind of Impossible is the story of Steinhardt’s 35-year-long quest to challenge conventional wisdom. It begins with a curious geometric pattern that inspires two theoretical physicists to propose a radically new type of matter - one that raises the possibility of new materials with never-before-seen properties but that violates laws set in stone for centuries.

In this exhilarating and sometimes mind-bending book, renowned scientist and author Paul Davies tells the gripping story of how, beginning with an iconic mathematical equation in the 1920s, a radical new theory of nature – quantum mechanics – burst upon the modern world, and how today we are on the cusp of the second great quantum technology revolution. Quantum 2.0 reveals how exotic states of matter that have no counterpart in the everyday world are being harnessed to enable forms of teleportation and ‘spooky’ telepathic links between remote places.

In Waves and Stones, Graham Harman shows that this paradoxical interaction – the question of whether reality is made up of sudden jumps, or is laid out along a gentle gradient with no clear divisions between the various things in the world – permeates every area of human life. What’s more, this paradox is as old as human thought itself.

What if everything we know about time is wrong? What if time doesn’t move in one direction? What if it’s not even the same everywhere in the universe? Quantum Time invites you to explore one of the biggest mysteries of all—what time really is. In our daily lives, time feels simple. It moves forward. Clocks tick. We grow older. But in the strange world of quantum physics, time doesn’t always follow these rules. It can stretch, bend, stop, or even reverse. Some scientists believe time isn’t a fixed thing at all. It may just be something that appears when tiny particles interact in special ways.

Dive into the enigmatic realms of subatomic particles with The Quantum Exodus, a groundbreaking exploration of the universe's most perplexing phenomena. This captivating book unravels the mysteries of quantum mechanics, offering listeners an exhilarating journey through the invisible world that governs all matter. From the eerie paradoxes of entanglement to the mind-bending possibilities of parallel universes, The Quantum Exodus bridges the gap between complex scientific theories and the curious mind.

Free Creations of the Human Mind: The Worlds of Albert Einstein presents a concise and nuanced account of Einstein's life and work embedded in his intellectual and social contexts. His life is interconnected with so many of the important political and intellectual movements of his era—Zionism, pacifism, Nazism, nuclear weapons, philosophy, civil rights, McCarthyism, the League of Nations, and substantial discoveries in epochal theories of special relativity and quantum theory.

Was könnte da der Sinn des Lebens sein? Der Wissenschaftsinfluencer Tim Vollert hat darauf eine faszinierende Antwort, und die liegt in der Physik. Auf seiner spannenden Reise vom Urknall bis zum Kältetod des Universums erklärt er nicht nur die Physik des Kosmos, sondern auch die Biologie hinter der Entstehung des Lebens.

Hello everybody, welcome to Explaining Engineering I am your host Charlie Sridhara and on this show we will be talking about all things engineering ranging from the inner workings of a car to a toothbrush, spaceship, power tools, basically really anything engineering. With all these topics and so much more I will be delving deep into them telling you about the cool facts to the important design principles used for these engineering marvels. I love explaining these things to others so I will try my best to explain all these topics in simple terms for all my listeners to be able to understand ...

La fisica quantistica raccontata con il rock (e viceversa)

This podcast discusses the history of scientific thought and tells stories about the greatest scientific discoveries and the scientists who made them. There may also be an inordinate amount of Xennial-related references thrown in along the way. Episodes will be released every two weeks on Fridays! Thanks for listening.

Sixty-six million years ago an asteroid as large as Mt. Everest hit what is now the Yucatan Peninsula at a speed ten times faster than the fastest rifle bullet. Debris from the impact blew into space, re-entered the atmosphere as a swarm of shooting stars that burned the global forests and grasslands, leaving behind a thin global layer containing rock from the asteroid and from Mexico, and smoke from the fires. This layer marks one of the greatest extinctions in Earth history including not just dinosaurs, but also fish, plankton, ammonites, and plants making up about 75% of the known species.

The universe is vast—unfathomably so. It stretches beyond our imagination, a seemingly infinite tapestry of galaxies, stars, and planets, each potentially harboring its own secrets. Among these cosmic mysteries, one question looms large over our species: Are we alone? For decades, scientists have combed the skies for signs of intelligent life—searching for radio signals, scanning the electromagnetic spectrum, and pointing laser arrays into the void. Yet, despite the most advanced technologies and tireless efforts, the silence has been deafening.

Ever heard of string theory, general relativity, or the Riemann Hypothesis and thought, “What in the world are they even talking about?” You’re not alone—and this book is your shortcut through the fog. "The Hardest Stuff Simplified" breaks down some of the most complicated ideas in the universe—from quantum field theory to philosophy of consciousness—and makes them not just understandable but actually fun. With metaphors, humor, and a sharp instinct for clarity, JJ walks you through the kind of topics that usually live in dusty college textbooks and brings them to life. You don’t need a PhD.

"Noi siamo corrente elettrica – Storie ad alto potenziale" è un viaggio attraverso la storia e il futuro dell’energia elettrica, intrecciando le vite delle persone e delle tecnologie che hanno reso possibile il sistema elettrico su cui contiamo ogni giorno.

Have you ever questioned reality? Not in the abstract, philosophical way, but in the eerie, spine-tingling moments when the world just doesn’t seem quite right? Like when a stranger says exactly what you were thinking. When the same numbers keep following you. When time seems to skip. Or when you look in the mirror and wonder: am I real—or just playing a role I didn’t choose?
