Albert Einstein wordt algemeen beschouwd als één van de grootste geesten die ooit geleefd heeft. Hij ontwikkelde de relativiteitstheorie, één van de twee pijlers van de moderne fysica, naast de kwantummechanica, en schreef 's werelds meest beroemde formule E = mc². Hij was een immense wetenschapper en denker, en zijn werk is ook bekend om zijn invloed op de filosofie van de wetenschap. Als een authentieke genie, hij was ook vol humor; deze 100 citaten zijn zorgvuldig geselecteerd om u kennismaken met zijn karakter en kwinkslag in een handige en efficiënte indeling.

DNA Demystified satisfies the public appetite for and curiosity about DNA and genetics. The book begins with the basic groundwork and a brief history of DNA and genetics.

For listeners intrigued by the proliferation of at-home DNA tests, the text includes fascinating explorations of genetic genealogy and family tree construction.

Much of the world's landmass is already known. Deep sea and outer space are beyond most people's reach. It feels like there are fewer places left to discover. Psychedelics, on the other hand, reveal worlds that remain largely obscure. Altered states offer modern, 21st-century audiences boundless opportunities to explore what a human being can experience. In this book, I show you how to become a capable discovery-maker, sample-collecting naturalist, and rational thinker of visionary phenomena.

Com base em pesquisas de ponta e estudos de caso dos próprios pacientes em sua rotina numa emergência psiquiátrica, Karl Deisseroth tenta preencher a lacuna de conhecimento que existe entre os antigos circuitos do nosso cérebro e os momentos de sofrimento em nosso dia a dia. As histórias dos pacientes do autor são ricas em humanidade e lançam uma luz sem precedentes sobre o eu — e as maneiras pelas quais ele pode desmoronar. Uma jovem com distúrbio alimentar revela como a mente pode se rebelar contra os impulsos mais primitivos do cérebro.

The Russell Cosmogony: A New Concept of Light, Matter, and Energy by Walter Russell offers a revolutionary perspective on the workings of the universe, challenging conventional scientific paradigms. This groundbreaking work explores the principles of light, matter, energy, electricity, and magnetism through a unique lens, emphasizing the unity and rhythmic balance of all creation.

In a world where chaos often reigns, inner peace seems more elusive than ever.

Light of the Mind, Light of the World tells a daring new story about how we got here, and how we can chart a better path forward. Surveying the history of science and faith from the astronomers of Babylon to the quantum physicists of postwar Europe and America, classicist and scholar Spencer A. Klavan argues that science itself is leading us not away from God but back to him, and to the ancient faith that places the human soul at the center of the universe.

The Well-Planned Universe provides evidence-based insights into the nature of our world, ourselves, and the universe beyond. The book explains how recent developments in computer science along with evidence from physics, astronomy, chemistry, and biology reveal that there is more to the universe and ourselves than most people realize.

How much light is too much light? Satellite pictures show our planet as a brightly glowing orb, and in our era of constant illumination, light pollution has become a major issue. The world’s flora and fauna have evolved to operate in the natural cycle of day and night. But in the last 150 years, we have extended our day—and in doing so have forced out the inhabitants of the night and disrupted the circadian rhythms necessary to sustain all living things, including ourselves.

For fans of Wild and Lab Girl, Heartbreak is a uniquely immersive audiobook, merging science and self-discovery to change the way we think about loneliness, health, and what it means to fall in and out of love.

One of our greatest philosophers and scientists of the mind asks where the self comes from - and how our selves can exist in the minds of others. I Am a Strange Loop argues that the key to understanding selves and consciousness is the "strange loop" - a special kind of abstract feedback loop inhabiting our brains. The most central and complex symbol in your brain is the one called "I". The "I" is the nexus in our brain, one of many symbols seeming to have free will and to have gained the paradoxical ability to push particles around, rather than the reverse.

The latest and most bitterly contested battle in the culture war is the controversy over Darwin and intelligent design. But much of what you've heard about it is wrong. Jonathan Wells, a battle-hardened veteran with doctorates in biology and theology, sets the record straight.

Blood carries life, yet the sight of it makes people faint. It is a waste product and a commodity pricier than oil. It can save lives and transmit deadly infections. Each one of us has roughly nine pints of it, yet many don’t even know their own blood type. And for all its ubiquitousness, the few tablespoons of blood discharged by 800 million women are still regarded as taboo: menstruation is perhaps the single most demonized biological event.

Twentieth century science completely revolutionized human understanding of the world, rewriting the story of the universe with exciting discoveries and theories—the big bang, the relativity of space and time, the accelerating expansion of the universe, along with increasingly refined ideas of evolution and the origin of life.

Los prestigiosos economistas Daron Acemoglu y Simon Johnson demuestran que el desarrollo técnico es indispensable para el avance de la democracia. El progreso no es un destino predeterminado, sino que depende de las elecciones que hagamos sobre la tecnología. Esta reflexión resulta muy pertinente en un mundo donde los avances digitales y la robótica amenazan a nuestros empleos y a nuestras democracias a través de la automatización excesiva, la recopilación masiva de datos y la vigilancia intrusiva.

Margot Rot nos invita a reflexionar sobre la relación que hay entre las experiencias emocionales a través de las pantallas y la creación de nuestras identidades. ¿Qué son nuestras emociones sino la expresión múltiple de aquello que deseamos, o de aquello que no deseamos? ¿Qué es el deseo sino el ímpetu a través del cual se erige una identidad? La virtualidad ha modificado nuestro modo de percibir el tiempo y el espacio y, por ende, nuestro modo de percibir la realidad.

La gran historia que transcurre entre la llegada del ordenador personal y la irrupción de la inteligencia artificial. A las puertas de un mundo dominado por la inteligencia artificial y las gafas de "realidad extendida", cabe preguntarse dónde empezó todo, cómo pasamos del pequeño garaje de Palo Alto en el que Hewlett y Packard revolucionaron la informática a un presente dirigido por los chips.

Conseguir una IA ética también es responsabilidad tuya La inteligencia artificial ha dejado de ser un argumento inquietante de las películas de ciencia ficción para convertirse en una cuestión tan real como urgente. Su evolución y los inevitables debates éticos que acarrea nos incumben a todos, pero suele delegarse esta responsabilidad en los propios directivos de las empresas tecnológicas, a menudo coaligados con quienes tienen intereses económicos. Abrumados por un mundo que no terminamos de entender y que intuimos atractivo y peligroso, miramos hacia otro lado.

Un viejo sueño cruza los cerebros de Albert Einstein, Edward Witten y Stephen Hawking; también los de Walt Whitman, Jorge Luis Borges y Octavio Paz. Es el sueño de que, más allá de las apariencias, todas las expresiones y fuerzas de la naturaleza podrían estar unificadas.
