Es la intención de este audiolibro mostrar que en la relatividad general esas dos caras de la cultura muestran el mismo aire de familia que cualquiera puede apreciar entre el rostro delirante que la tradición nos ha legado de don Quijote y ese icono de la modernidad que es el rostro de un Einstein desmelenado.

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. Zijn gedachten zijn een belangrijke werk gevonden op verspreide slips, en treft vele paradoxen: oneindigheid en niets, ziel en materie, geloof en rede.

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. Chapters then cover newsworthy topics, including DNA fingerprinting, using DNA in forensic analyses, and identifying cold-case criminals. For listeners intrigued by the proliferation of at-home DNA tests, the text includes fascinating explorations of genetic genealogy and family tree construction.

A democratic republic depends upon two unassailable truths: Freedom can only exist (1) where the laws of God are considered absolute and (2) where the majority believe that God, not man and not government, created men and women equal. This book is founded on the principle that only truth can make us free and that the Holy Bible is the foundation of our freedom. This book explores law - the laws of God and the laws of man, and defines freewill, agency, freedom, and liberty - and presents what is necessary to maintain our liberty.

Written for those with no physics background, Paul Levy's latest book, The Quantum Revelation: A Radical Synthesis of Science and Spirituality, is for those who have heard that quantum physics is a fascinating subject but don't quite understand how or why.

The answers to these questions are right behind our eyes. The greatest technology we have ever discovered on our planet is the three-pound organ carried in the vault of the skull. This book is not simply about what the brain is; it is about what it does. The magic of the brain is not found in the parts it’s made of but in the way those parts unceasingly reweave themselves in an electric, living fabric.

In 1999, Texas passed a landmark clean energy law, beginning a groundswell of new policies that promised to make the US a world leader in renewable energy. As Leah Stokes shows in Short Circuiting Policy, however, that policy did not lead to momentum in Texas, which failed to implement its solar laws or clean up its electricity system. Examining clean energy laws in Texas, Kansas, Arizona, and Ohio over 30 years Stokes argues that organized combat between advocate and opponent interest groups is central to explaining why states are not on track to address the climate crisis.

Combining science and spirituality to reveal the true nature of the universe - this book will change perceptions, inspire mind shifts and alter the way we see the world, forever.

Science is how we understand the world. Yet failures in peer review and mistakes in statistics have rendered a shocking number of scientific studies useless—or, worse, badly misleading. Such errors have distorted our knowledge in fields as wide-ranging as medicine, physics, nutrition, education, genetics, economics, and the search for extraterrestrial life. As Science Fictions makes clear, the current system of research funding and publication not only fails to safeguard us from blunders but actively encourages bad science—with sometimes deadly consequences.

Medicine, education, psychology, health, parenting - wherever it really matters, we look to science for advice. Science Fictions reveals the disturbing flaws that undermine our understanding of all of these fields and more.

This is a remarkable selection of writings of Edward Carpenter who championed a new kind of science for the future. Edited by David Christopher Lane.

The human dilemma is that we have an innate tendency to conflate our current brain state with how reality apart from ourselves really is, forgetting, in the process, that our subjective experiences may be inaccurate or misleading representations of our objective surroundings. There are, of course, good evolutionary reasons for why this is the case, since in our struggle for survival, we have to rely on our mental maps (and take them seriously) in order to find food, ward or fight off enemies, secure housing, find mates, protect offspring, and so on.

En un momento en el que palabras como natural, ecológico o sin conservantes inundan el etiquetado de los productos que compramos, Comer sin miedo ofrece un análisis científico y documentado de la realidad de los alimentos y de sus supuestas virtudes. J. M. Mulet, experto en bioquímica y biología molecular, revela en este audiolibro narrado por él mismo qué hay de cierto y qué hay de mito en la información que circula sobre lo que nos llevamos a la boca, desmontando con ironía y humor un sinfín de falacias y mitos.

In Regenesis, George Church and science writer Ed Regis explore the possibilities of the emerging field of synthetic biology. Synthetic biology, in which living organisms are selectively altered by modifying substantial portions of their genomes, allows for the creation of entirely new species of organisms. These technologies - far from the out-of-control nightmare depicted in science fiction - have the power to improve human and animal health, increase our intelligence, enhance our memory, and even extend our life span.

Michael Schneider leads us on a spectacular journey along the numbers one through 10 to explore the mathematical principles made visible in flowers, shells, crystals, plants, and the human body, expressed in the symbolic language of folk sayings and fairy tales, myth and religion, art and architecture. This is a new view of mathematics, not the one we learned at school but a comprehensive guide to the patterns that recur through the universe and underlie human affairs.

This book is the first to examine the history of imaginative thinking about intelligent machines. As real Artificial Intelligence (AI) begins to touch on all aspects of our lives, this long narrative history shapes how the technology is developed, deployed, and regulated. It is therefore a crucial social and ethical issue. Part I of this book provides a historical overview from ancient Greece to the start of modernity. Part II focuses on the 20th and 21st centuries in which a greater density of narratives emerge alongside rapid developments in AI technology.

Why are we here? Human beings have asked themselves this question for centuries. Modern science largely argues that human beings are chance products of a purposeless universe, but other traditions believe humanity has an essential role and responsibility in creation. Lachman brings together many strands of esoteric, spiritual and philosophical thought to form a counter-argument to the nihilism that permeates the twenty-first century.

Building a Resilient Tomorrow does not dwell on overhyped descriptions of apocalyptic climate scenarios, nor does it travel down well-trodden paths surrounding the politics of reducing carbon emissions. Instead, it starts with two central facts: Climate impacts will continue to occur, and we can make changes now to mitigate their effects.
