En réponse au romantisme, poètes et écrivains du second XIXe siècle portent sur le monde réel un regard sensible mais désenchanté. Dès lors, tous les sujets sont possibles, aussi bien le beau que le laid. Baudelaire, Flaubert, Zola et bien d'autres, s'affi rment ainsi comme des écrivains modernes et opèrent un profond renouvellement de la création littéraire.

In this grand poetic vision of the universe, Lawrence Krauss tells the dramatic story of the discovery of the hidden world that underlies reality - and our place within it. Reality is not what you think or sense - it’s weird, wild, and counterintuitive, and its inner workings seem at least as implausible as the idea that something can come from nothing. With his trademark wit and accessible style, Krauss leads us to realms so small that they are invisible to microscopes, to the birth and rebirth of light, and into the natural forces that govern our existence.

In this technology-driven age, it's tempting to believe that science can solve every mystery. After all, science has cured countless diseases and even sent humans into space. But as Jonah Lehrer argues in this sparkling debut, science is not the only path to knowledge. In fact, when it comes to understanding the brain, art got there first.

When Edward M. Hallowell was 11, a voice out of nowhere told him he should become a psychiatrist. A mental health professional of the time would have called this psychosis. But young Edward (Ned) took it in stride, despite not quite knowing what "psychiatrist" meant. With a psychotic father, an alcoholic mother, an abusive stepfather, and two so-called learning disabilities of his own, Ned was accustomed to unpredictable behaviour from those around him and to a mind he felt he couldn't always control.

Richard Dawkins and Deepak Chopra are two of the most famous Big Thinkers of our time. And yet their deeply acrimonious, decade-long battle over God, human consciousness and "quantum healing" has gone unchronicled until now. Dawkins, a best-selling author and evolutionary biologist who coined the term "meme", has staked his name on the cause of militant atheism.

Despite advances in health care, infectious microbes continue to be a formidable adversary to scientists and doctors. Vaccines and antibiotics, the mainstays of modern medicine, have not been able to conquer infectious microbes because of their amazing ability to adapt, evolve, and spread to new places. Terrorism aside, one of the greatest dangers from infectious disease we face today is from a massive outbreak of drug-resistant microbes.

Mérő László A csodák logikája című könyve - és az ez alapján készült hangoskönyvünk is - a világi csodákról szól, amelyek mára alapvetően megváltoztatták a gazdaságot. Egyre inkább hozzájuk kell igazítanunk a gondolkodásunkat és az oktatást is, amelyben a tudás konvertálásának a képessége lesz a lényeg.

"So wenig als möglich sitzen; keinem Gedanken Glauben schenken, der nicht im Freien geboren ist und bei freier Bewegung, in dem nicht auch die Muskeln ein Fest feiern!" Der Philosoph Friedrich Nietzsche (1844-1900) war kein Mann des Schreibtischs. Er hielt es nur dort aus, wo es Wanderwege gab: am Meer oder in den Bergen, "wo selbst die Wege nachdenklich werden". Seine Gedankengänge dagegen führten ihn in wegloses Gelände. Vorbei an schwindelerregenden Abgründen, in völlige Einsamkeit und schließlich in die Region der Gipfel und des ewigen Eises.

Le testimonianze raccolte in questo libro, curato da Franco Basaglia e sua moglie Franca Ongaro e pubblicato per la prima volta nel 1975, costituiscono una sorta di ricerca a più voci sul ruolo dell'intellettuale e del tecnico come custodi di istituzioni violente. Attraverso l'approfondimento della funzione che regge le diverse ideologie scientifiche (la psichiatria, la storiografia, la psicologia, la sociologia, la criminologia, la medicina), questi contributi vogliono risalire alla funzione dell'ideologia quale strumento di conservazione del nostro sistema sociale.

Fakten, wissenschaftlich fundiert und eindeutig belegt, sind Gold wert. Besonders dann, wenn Fake News oder Halbwahrheiten die öffentliche Debatte bestimmen und ein sachlicher Diskurs nicht mehr möglich ist. Ob Klimawandel, Homöopathie, Feinstaub oder Erblichkeit von Intelligenz - die Wissenschaftsjournalistin Mai Thi Nguyen-Kim räumt bei diesen und anderen großen Streitthemen mit diesem Missstand auf. Klarsichtig und kurzweilig legt sie dar, was faktisch niemand mehr bestreiten kann und worauf wir uns alle einigen können.

Wiskundige en filosoof Blaise Pascal is een van de grootste geesten die ooit heeft bestaan. Hij publiceerde een verhandeling over projectieve meetkunde op de leeftijd van 16, voor het uitvinden van de calculator om zijn vader te helpen in zijn werk. belangrijke vooruitgang die we te danken hebben aan Pascal op het gebied van de wetenschap, de wetenschappelijke methode van waarschijnlijkheid, en filosofie.

Amin Maalouf, élu au 29e fauteuil de l'Académie française et successeur de Claude Lévi-Strauss, compose les portraits des dix-huit grands hommes qui l'ont précédé, à travers l'évocation de leur histoire publique et privée, et nous fait revivre ainsi quatre siècles d'histoire de la nation française.

A daring new vision of quantum theory from one of the leading minds of contemporary physics Quantum physics is the golden child of modern science. It is the basis of our understanding of atoms, radiation, and so much else, from elementary particles and basic forces to the behavior of materials...

As smartphones, supercomputers, supercolliders, and AI propel us into an ever more unfamiliar future, How to Speak Science takes us on a rollicking historical tour of the greatest discoveries and ideas that make today's cutting-edge technologies possible. Wanting everyone to be able to "speak" science, YouTube science guru Bruce Benamran explains - as accessibly and wittily as in his acclaimed videos - the fundamental ideas of the physical world: matter, life, the solar system, light, electromagnetism, thermodynamics, special and general relativity, and much more.

In these brilliant essays, Lightman explores the emotional life of science, the power of imagination, the creative moment, and the alternate ways in which scientists and humanists think about the world.
