Can there be freedom and free will in a deterministic world? Renowned philosopher Daniel Dennett emphatically answers "yes!" Using an array of provocative formulations, Dennett sets out to show how we alone among the animals have evolved minds that give us free will and morality. Weaving a richly detailed narrative, Dennett explains in a series of strikingly original arguments - drawing upon evolutionary biology, cognitive neuroscience, economics, and philosophy - that far from being an enemy of traditional explorations of freedom, morality, and meaning, the evolutionary perspective can be an indispensable ally.

This playful, entertaining, and mind-bending introduction to modern physics briskly explains Einstein's general relativity, quantum mechanics, elementary particles, gravity, black holes, the complex architecture of the Universe, and the role humans play in this weird and wonderful world. Carlo Rovelli, a renowned theoretical physicist, is a delightfully poetic and philosophical scientific guide. He takes us to the frontiers of our knowledge: To the most minute reaches of the fabric of space, back to the origins of the cosmos, and into the workings of our minds.

A Short History of Nearly Everything is Bill Bryson's fascinating and humorous quest to understand everything that has happened from the Big Bang to the rise of civilization. He takes subjects that normally bore the pants off most of us, like geology, chemistry, and particle physics, and aims to render them comprehensible to people who have never thought they could be interested in science. In the company of some extraordinary scientists, Bill Bryson reveals the world in a way most of us have never seen it before.

Why is red meat red? How do they decaffeinate coffee? Do you wish you understood the science of food but don't want to plow through dry, technical books? In What Einstein Told His Cook, University of Pittsburgh chemistry professor emeritus and award-winning Washington Post food columnist Robert L. Wolke provides reliable and witty explanations for your most burning food questions, while debunking misconceptions and helping you interpret confusing advertising and labeling.

Developed by experienced professors and professionally narrated for easy listening, this course is a great way to explore the subject of college-level physics. The audio is focused and high-yield, covering the most important topics you might expect to learn in a typical undergraduate physics course. The material is accurate, up-to-date, and broken down into bite-size sections. There are quizzes and key takeaways following each section to review questions commonly tested and drive home key points.  

Why do some ideas take off - and others fail to spread? Why are some diseases predictable and others swamped in uncertainty? And what about the outbreaks that never happen at all? We live in a world that's more connected than ever before. But even as we see our lives being shaped by the spread of ideas, trends - and even diseases - we sometimes struggle to grasp how it actually works. Outbreaks seem to be driven by randomness and hidden laws, and in order to understand them, we need to start thinking like mathematicians.

In 1927, Niels Bohr and Albert Einstein began a debate about the interpretation and meaning of the new quantum theory. This would become one of the most famous debates in the history of science. What (if any) limits should we place on our expectations for what science can tell us about physical reality? As Quantum Drama reveals, science owes a large debt to those who kept the discussions going before definitive experimental inquiries became possible. Although experiment moved the Bohr-Einstein debate to a new level, it has by no means removed or resolved the fundamental question.

The most trusted explainer of the most mind-boggling concepts pulls back the veil of mystery that has too long cloaked the most valuable building blocks of modern science. Sean Carroll, with his genius for making complex notions entertaining, presents in his uniquely lucid voice the fundamental ideas informing the modern physics of reality. In the tradition of the legendary Richard Feynman lectures presented sixty years ago, this book is an inspiring, dazzling introduction to a way of seeing that will resonate across cultural and generational boundaries for many years to come.

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.

Illuminating the very human conversation around nuclear for the first time, from the roots of the American environmental movement to the present, Atomic Dreams offers a look at why we fear certain things, how people’s minds can change, and what a grand-scale political reversal looks like up close, even when it feels, so often, like change is impossible.

Китайская физика – может ли наука иметь национальную принадлежность? Много ли вы знаете китайских физиков? В этой книге автор ответит на вопросы: Почему мы знаем так много великих европейских физиков, но не знаем китайских? Почему Китай до начала Нового времени, не открывая физических законов, лидировал по всем техническим направлениям? "Великий вопрос" Джозефа Нидхэма: "Почему Ньютон родился в Англии, а не в Китае?". Какую роль сыграл китайский менталитет в анализе квантовой механики?

The first problem of man was to find his way about on the earth. Hence the art of measuring the earth (geodesy) became the source of the science of space, which derived its name geometry from the Greek word for earth. From the very outset, however, the measure of time arose from the regular changes of night and day, the phases of the moon, and the seasons. These phenomena forced themselves on mans attention and caused him to direct his gaze toward the stars, which were the source of the science of the universe, cosmology.

En un mundo lleno de retos y oportunidades, nuestra mente es el motor que impulsa nuestro viaje. Sin embargo, a menudo subestimamos el poder de nuestras palabras internas y cómo moldean nuestra realidad. La falta de afirmaciones positivas puede ser como intentar navegar un barco sin brújula: nos perdemos en un mar de dudas y negatividad. Las desventajas de no utilizar afirmaciones positivas son claras. Primero, nos volvemos presa fácil de la autocrítica destructiva. Cada pensamiento negativo es como un golpe a nuestra autoestima y confianza. Además, sin afirmaciones positivas, nuestra ...

Scientists tell us that ninety-six percent of the universe is unexplained dark matter and dark energy. Also, they admit that no unifying “theory of everything” exists in physics. This shaky foundation is the basis of modern thinking about the cosmos and Earth’s place in it. Something big seems to be missing. Thus, we’re left with no choice but to question the “consensus” cosmological model. Are we really flying through space on a spinning ball within an expanding universe, while free-falling around the Sun—all as a consequence of a “Big Bang” that supposedly occurred 13.8 billion years ago?

Neue Quanten-Erkenntnisse für ein langes und gesundes Leben. Gemeinsam mit dem Quantenphysiker Dr. Jack Tuszynski und dem Endokrinologen Dr. Brian Fertig zeigt der Bestsellerautor und ganzheitliche Mediziner Deepak Chopra, wie sich die Erkenntnisse der Quantenwissenschaft darauf auswirken, wie wir leben und altern.
