هذا ليس كتابا في الخيال العلمي، ولكنه كتاب في العلم تتجاوز آفاقه الخيال. العلم سوف يمكننا من إعادة تشكيل الكون على النحو الذي يناسبنا، ولم لا؟ فإذا قُدِّر...

ଏ ଯୁଗ ବିଜ୍ଞାନର ଯୁଗ! ଚାରିଶହ ବର୍ଷ ମଧ୍ୟରେ ବିଜ୍ଞାନ ଗୋଟିଏ ନୂଆ ପୃଥିବୀ ଗଢି ଦେଇଛି! ଟେକ୍ନୋଲୋଜି ବିଜ୍ଞାନ ନୁହେଁ! ବିଜ୍ଞାନର...

En el siglo XVIII, dos hombres de la misma edad (y caracteres opuestos) dedicaron sus vidas a la misma ardua tarea: identificar y describir toda la vida en la Tierra. Carl Linneo, un médico sueco muy devoto y con dotes de comerciante, consideró que la clasificación debía responder a categorías ordenadas y estáticas. Por el contrario, Georges-Louis de Buffon, aristócrata, polímata y director del Jardin du Roi de Francia, veía la vida como un remolino dinámico y complejo. Cada uno emprendió su trabajo consciente de las dificultades pero creyéndolo posible.

Science is the basis of our assumptions about ourselves and our world, from ideas about our evolutionary past to our conceptions of the vast expanses of space and the smallest particles of matter. In this panoramic book, acclaimed historian of science Peter Dear uncovers the roots of such beliefs, revealing how they constitute a natural philosophy that has been developed and refined over the course of centuries—and how the world as we have come to know it was by no means inevitable.

In Why Are We Like This? science journalist Zoe Kean takes us behind the scenes of the evolutionary paradoxes that make up life on this planet. Exploring with scientists, whether freezing in Tasmanian sleet or in a laboratory of sleeping sharks in North Queensland, we see how these evolutionary mysteries might just uncover the secrets of a better life for humans and the creatures we share the planet with.

In The Hundred Years' Trial, Alexander and Harold Gouzoules explore the century-long impacts of the historic 1925 Scopes "Monkey Trial," starting with the development of evolutionary theory and charting the resulting cultural and legal conflicts over evolution in the United States. Through a blend of legal history, scientific exploration, and cultural analysis, the authors reexamine how this landmark trial remains a pivotal moment in shaping modern debates on science, religion, and education.

This journey through time and space will inform a new generation of readers as well as those who read this book on first publication with a new perspective based on what we know now. A Short History of Nearly Everything 2.0 is the result of Bill Bryson's quest to understand everything that has happened from the Big Bang to the rise of civilization – how we got from being nothing at all to what we are today.

In three sweeping essays written for our current moment of scientific mistrust, Thomas Levenson searches for the origins of the most common arguments against vaccines: that they are unnatural; that they are more dangerous than the illnesses they claim to prevent; and that they are an affront to freedom.

Deeply researched, strikingly original, and beautifully written, The Power of Life shines a much-needed light on an underappreciated biologist whose radical ideas foretold a more inclusive, collaborative, and enlightened approach to science.

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.

A mother kisses her child's scraped knee. A father embraces his long-lost son. A dog greets its owner with desperate joy. Every culture, every species, every corner of the living world engages in these intimate acts of connection. We've been told these are merely displays of affection. But what if there’s something more? WHAT IF A KISS IS MORE THAN JUST A KISS? For the first time in human history, we are starting to see the hidden force that builds life through connection—not because we discovered something new, but because we have broken something ancient.

What if the secrets of existence were hiding in plain sight—in shapes, spirals, and symmetry? 'Sacred Geometry: The Blueprint of Everything' is a journey through the invisible code behind the visible world. This book isn’t just about lines and patterns—it’s about unlocking the structures that build reality itself. From the infinite loop of the circle to the silent elegance of the Platonic Solids, JJ walks you through the visual grammar of creation.

C'è chi si indispettisce, c'è chi si esalta e c'è invece chi si rende conto, come il giovane Heisenberg durante la sua tormentata convalescenza a Helgoland, che probabilmente il traguardo è proprio questo: smettere di ascoltare il mondo come lo si è ascoltato fino a quel momento e avventurarsi verso una forma di comprensione assolutamente nuova. Per quanto terrore possa, a tratti, ispirare. È la via che ha preferito Benjamín Labatut, ricostruendo alcune scene che hanno deciso la nascita della scienza moderna.

In 1869, the Atlantic Monthly magazine published a new novella in serial form. This bizarre tale, The Brick Moon, was written by a historian (and Unitarian minister) named Edward Everett Hale, who had already written several well-received novels and articles. However, this was something completely different today, as it was in the genre of what is today considered science fiction. Many people compared the new work to the previous novels of French writer Jules Verne, including From the Earth to the Moon, but Hale’s work was presented as a genuine account of a previous experiment.

Alcune storie sono troppo assurde per non essere raccontate, come l'epico scontro Alessandro Volta VS Luigi Galvani, tra rane morte ed energia elettrica che ha ispirato la nascita del mostro di Frankenstein. O ancora Stephen Hawking e quella sua fissa per i buchi neri, Margherita Hack che pedalava verso l'osservatorio tra le bombe della seconda guerra mondiale, Richard Feynman che scassinava casseforti durante il progetto Manhattan, Lord Kelvin il barone della morte termica dell'Universo, Enrico Fermi che ha scisso l'atomo e dato il via all'era nucleare.

From the author of The Moth in the Iron Lung comes a riveting exploration of how science, technology, and fear transformed our relationship with one of humanity's most ancient foods. Once revered as nature's perfect nourishment, milk became public enemy number one as germ theory unleashed collective panic about the invisible world within our food. Forrest Maready uncovers the fascinating, forgotten story of how this fear—epitomized by the notorious "swill milk" scandal—reshaped our food landscape forever.

But what prompts their involvement in international affairs, and what are some of the impacts of their efforts? Can Scientists Succeed Where Politicians Fail? recounts Nobel laureate Dr. Peter Agre's career as a physician-scientist who went from studying malaria and other diseases to meeting with Fidel Castro in Cuba, discoursing with North Korean officials, and traveling into the Islamic Republic of Iran.

Lorsqu'il publie De l'origine des espèces en 1859, Charles Darwin bouscule les croyances et provoque des débats passionnés dans la société toute entière. Aujourd'hui, tout en faisant partie des piliers de la connaissance, la théorie de l'évolution continue de déranger car elle brise l'idée d'une Nature généreuse et prévoyante et remet en cause la place de l'homme. Installez-vous confortablement dans un transat, et laissez-vous conter par Jean-Baptiste de Panafieu comment Charles Darwin, jeune naturaliste curieux embarquant pour un périple autour du monde, a révolutionné notre façon de penser.

Every physicist agrees quantum mechanics is among humanity's finest scientific achievements. But ask what it means, and the result will be a brawl. For a century, most physicists have followed Niels Bohr's solipsistic and poorly reasoned Copenhagen interpretation. Indeed, questioning it has long meant professional ruin, yet some daring physicists, such as John Bell, David Bohm, and Hugh Everett, persisted in seeking the true meaning of quantum mechanics. What Is Real? is the gripping story of this battle of ideas and the courageous scientists who dared to stand up for truth.

The coal-mining town of Fushun in China’s Northeast is home to a monstrous open pit. First excavated in the early twentieth century, this pit grew like a widening maw over the ensuing decades, as various Chinese and Japanese states endeavored to unearth Fushun’s purportedly “inexhaustible” carbon resources. Today, the depleted mine that remains is a wondrous and terrifying monument to fantasies of a fossil-fueled future and the technologies mobilized in attempts to turn those developmentalist dreams into reality.
