In "Journey to the Centre of the Earth", an obsessive German professor and his nephew travel towards the earth's core in the steps of a medieval explorer beneath an Icelandic volcano where they discover a lost world.

Flat Earth Pan Macmillan

Książki / Literatura obcojęzyczna

Contrary to popular belief, fostered in countless school classrooms the world over, Christopher Columbus did not discover that the world was round. The idea of the world as a sphere had been widely accepted in scientific, philosophical and even religious circles from as early as the fourth century bc. Bizarrely, it was not until the supposedly more rational nineteenth century that the notion that the world might actually be flat really took hold. Even more bizarrely, it persists to this day. Based on a range of original sources, Garwood's history of flat-earth beliefs - from the Babylonians to the present day - raises issues central to the history and philosophy of science, its relationship with religion and the making of human knowledge about the natural world. Flat Earth is the first definitive study of one of history's most notorious and persistent ideas, and evokes all the intellectual, philosophical and spiritual turmoil of the modern age. 'Highly entertaining and often hilarious ...an enjoyable romp through the dottier history of scientific and religious eccentricity' Sunday Times 'This entertaining history of the Flat Earth movement is full of crazy characters and fascinating details' Daily Telegraph 'Wonderful ...an intriguing chronicle of 150 years of self- delusion' Financial Times

Science and the Akashic Field Inner Traditions Bear and Company

Książki / Literatura obcojęzyczna

Mystics and sages have long maintained that there exists an interconnecting cosmic field at the roots of reality that conserves and conveys information, a field known as the Akashic record. Recent discoveries in vacuum physics show that this Akashic Field is real and has its equivalent in science's zero-point field that underlies space itself. This field consists of a subtle sea of fluctuating energies from which all things arise: atoms and galaxies, stars and planets, living beings and even consciousness. This zero-point Akashic Field is the constant and enduring memory of the universe. It holds the record of all that has happened on Earth and in the cosmos and relates it to all that is yet to happen. The book explains how modern science has rediscovered the Akashic Field of perennial philosophy and this new edition updates ongoing scientific studies, presents new research inspired by the first edition, and includes new case studies and a section on animal telepathy. In "Science and the Akashic Field", philosopher and scientist, Ervin Laszlo, conveys the essential element of this information field in language that is accessible and clear.From the world of science he confirms our deepest intuitions of the oneness of creation in the Integral Theory of Everything. We discover that, as philosopher William James stated, "We are like islands in the sea, separate on the surface but connected in the deep."

Science Of Discworld Ebury Publishing

Książki / Literatura obcojęzyczna

The fantastic first book in the "Science of Discworld" series, fully revised and updated.§§When a wizardly experiment goes adrift, the wizards of Unseen University find themselves with a pocket universe on their hands: Roundworld, where neither magic nor common sense seems to stand a chance against logic. The Universe, of course, is our own. And Roundworld is Earth. As the wizards watch their accidental creation grow, we follow the story of our universe from the primal singularity of the Big Bang to the Internet and beyond. Through this original Terry Pratchett story (with intervening chapters from Cohen and Stewart) we discover how puny and insignificant individual lives are against a cosmic backdrop of creation and disaster. Yet, paradoxically, we see how the richness of a universe based on rules, has led to a complex world and at least one species that tried to get a grip of what was going on.

Why Geology Matters University of California Press

Książki / Literatura obcojęzyczna

Volcanic dust, climate change, tsunamis, earthquakes - geoscience explores phenomena that profoundly affect our lives. But more than that, as Doug Macdougall makes clear, the science also provides important clues to the future of the planet. In an entertaining and accessibly written narrative, Macdougall gives an overview of Earth's astonishing history based on information extracted from rocks, ice cores, and other natural archives. He explores such questions as: What is the risk of an asteroid striking Earth? Why does the temperature of the ocean millions of years ago matter today? How are efforts to predict earthquakes progressing? Macdougall also explains the legacy of greenhouse gases from Earth's past and shows how that legacy shapes our understanding of today's human-caused climate change. We find that geoscience in fact illuminates many of today's most pressing issues - the availability of energy, access to fresh water, sustainable agriculture, maintaining biodiversity - and we discover how, by applying new technologies and ideas, we can use it to prepare for the future.

Vrilology iUniverse

Książki / Literatura obcojęzyczna

We have within us the ability to achieve limitless possibilities. This ability is the Life Force that we share with the Gods who created us, it is known as Vril. Blumetti now explains how we can tap into this all-powerful force to help transform our lives. Through the use of Galdor and Seither science, which is known as Vrilology, we can now reestablish the broken bonds with the Gods who created us, causing Balder to rise and fill us with his vital Life Force. Once you have accomplished this, you will discover an entirely new realm of human achievement that resides within you, a realm where all things are possible. In this sequel to Blumetti's first book, The Book of Balder Rising, he explains how the Gods descended to earth and mixed their Life Force with our ancestors ten thousand years ago, and how they taught them to use the Vril to build an advance civilization that we refer to as Atlantis. But they misused the Vril and destroyed their civilization, and as refugees, spread something of the lost science of Vrilology across Eurasia. In Vrilology, you can discover the history and power of the Vril for yourself.

WILSON LITERARY SCIENCE WRITING AWARD Stories that both dazzle and edify This book is not just about life, but about discovery itself.   Siddhartha Mukherjee, New York Times Book ReviewWe all assume we know what life is, but the more scientists learn about the living world from protocells to brains, from zygotes to pandemic viruses the harder they find it is to locate life s edge.   Carl Zimmer investigates one of the biggest questions of all: What is life? The answer seems obvious until you try to seriously answer it. Is the apple sitting on your kitchen counter alive, or is only the apple tree it came from deserving of the word? If we can t answer that question here on earth, how will we know when and if we discover alien life on other worlds? The question hangs over some of society s most charged conflicts whether a fertilized egg is a living person, for example, and when we ought to declare a person legally dead.   Life's Edge is an utterly fascinating investigation that no one but one of the most celebrated science writers of our generation could craft. Zimmer journeys through the strange experiments that have attempted to re-create life. Literally hundreds of definitions of what that should look like now exist, but none has yet emerged as an obvious winner. Lists of what living things have in common do not add up to a theory of life. It's never clear why some items on the list are essential and others not. Coronaviruses have altered the course of history, and yet many scientists maintain they are not alive. Chemists are creating droplets that can swarm, sense their environment, and multiply. Have they made life in the lab?   Whether he is handling pythons in Alabama or searching for hibernating bats in the Adirondacks, Zimmer revels in astounding examples of life at its most bizarre. He tries his own hand at evolving life in a test tube with unnerving results. Charting the obsession with Dr. Frankenstein's monster and how the world briefly believed radium was the source of all life, Zimmer leads us all the way into the labs and minds of researchers engineering life from scratch.

We listen to stories of pivotal discoveries in the field, while looking ahead at the many mysteries which lie unsolved.Ed Yong coaxes us beyond the confines of our own senses, allowing us to perceive the threads of scent, waves of electromagnetism and pulses of pressure that surround us.
