GRAVITY Apparentemente è solo un esperimento andato male. Innocui microrganismi marini, prelevati dalle dorsali oceaniche, sono stati portati sulla Stazione Spaziale Internazionale per esperimenti altrettanto innocui. Invece, in assenza di gravità, si è generato "qualcosa" che prima saccheggia il DNA dell'ospite, umano o animale che sia, e poi lo uccide, diventando, di vittima in vittima, sempre più forte. Il pericolo è enorme, bisogna annientarlo prima che il contagio si diffonda. Emma Watson, medico di bordo, è l'unica che può farlo, ma nessuno sembra disposto ad aiutarla e lei si trova a lottare contro il tempo, nelle condizioni più estreme...

In the last few years modified gravity theories have been proposed as extensions of Einstein's theory of gravity. Their main motivation is to explain the latest cosmological and astrophysical data on dark energy and dark matter. The study of general relativity at small scales has already produced important results (cf e.g. LNP 863 Quantum Gravity and Quantum Cosmology) while its study at large scales is challenging because recent and upcoming observational results will provide important information on the validity of these modified theories. In this volume, various aspects of modified gravity at large scales will be discussed: high-curvature gravity theories; general scalar-tensor theories; Galileon theories and their cosmological applications; F(R) gravity theories; massive, new massive and topologically massive gravity; Chern-Simons modifications of general relativity (including holographic variants) and higher-spin gravity theories, to name but a few of the most important recent developments. Edited and authored by leading researchers in the field and cast into the form of a multi-author textbook at postgraduate level, this volume will be of benefit to all postgraduate students and newcomers from neighboring disciplines wishing to find a comprehensive guide for their future research.

THE CALCULATING STARS Una fredda mattina di primavera del 1952, un gigantesco meteorite precipita sulla Terra cancellando buona parte della costa orientale degli Stati Uniti, compresa la città di Washington. Lo sconvolgimento climatico che ne segue renderà presto il pianeta inabitabile per l'uomo, e l'unica soluzione è lasciare il vecchio mondo, prima che sia troppo tardi. Così il programma spaziale mondiale subisce una rapida accelerazione, e in molti vengono coinvolti. Tra questi, Elma York, pilota militare e matematica, reclutata nell'International Aerospace Coalition. Come lei molte altre donne, scienziate e pilote di grande abilità, alle quali però si chiede di occuparsi dei calcoli. Perché solo gli uomini possono salire su una navicella spaziale? Elma è determinata a diventare la prima Donna Astronauta, a dispetto delle assurde convenzioni sociali del tempo.

IL DESTINO DEL CIELO "Fino a quel momento, l'International Aerospace Coalition non aveva ancora assunto piloti donne sui grandi razzi orbitali. Che non ci fosse permesso di pilotarli, non era la politica ufficiale, ma quando chiedevo informazioni, mi veniva sempre risposto qualcosa sulla loro volontà di impiegare la mia esperienza 'in posizioni di maggior rilevanza'. Dal momento che le donne erano entrate nel corpo astronauti grazie alle nostre abilità informatiche, era difficile convincerli a farci sedere in un posto diverso da quello." Quando però la destinazione è Marte e serve un "computer umano" per i calcoli di rientro durante il viaggio, la scelta sembra obbligata. Tutti i computer sono donne e Elma York, pilota astronauta, vuole quel posto.

L'ALTERNATIVA OPPENHEIMER Dopo la distruzione di Hiroshima e Nagasaki, lo scienziato responsabile del progetto Manhattan, J. Robert Oppenheimer, si mette a capo di un nuovo team di scienziati per scongiurare, questa volta, una catastrofe. Intorno al 2030, infatti, è prevista un'esplosione del sole che diffonderà con furia devastante il suo strato più esterno, distruggendo l'intero sistema solare. A oltre settantacinque anni dallo sgancio delle bombe atomiche sul Giappone, l'autore vincitore dei premi Nebula e Hugo ci riporta indietro nel tempo per ripercorrere la Storia... con una svolta imprevista.

First in a quintessential hard-science fiction adventure, Hugo Award-winning author Vernor Vinge's The Peace War follows a scientist determined to put an end to the militarization of his greatest invention--and of the government behind it. The Peace Authority conquered the world with a weapon that never should have been a weapon--the "bobble," a spherical force-field impenetrable by any force known to mankind. Encasing governmental installations and military bases in bobbles, the Authority becomes virtually omnipotent. But they've never caught Paul Hoehler, the maverick who invented the technology, and who has been working quietly for decades to develop a way to defeat the Authority. With the help of an underground network of determined, independent scientists and a teenager who may be the apprentice genius he's needed for so long, he will shake the world. At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.

One of the world’s leading creative artists, choreographers, and creator of the smash-hit Broadway show, Movin’ Out, shares her secrets for developing and honing your creative talents—at once prescriptive and inspirational, a book to stand alongside The Artist’s Way and Bird by Bird. All it takes to make creativity a part of your life is the willingness to make it a habit. It is the product of preparation and effort, and is within reach of everyone. Whether you are a painter, musician, businessperson, or simply an individual yearning to put your creativity to use, The Creative Habit provides you with thirty-two practical exercises based on the lessons Twyla Tharp has learned in her remarkable thirty-five-year career. In "Where's Your Pencil?" Tharp reminds you to observe the world -- and get it down on paper. In "Coins and Chaos," she gives you an easy way to restore order and peace. In "Do a Verb," she turns your mind and body into coworkers. In "Build a Bridge to the Next Day," she shows you how to clean the clutter from your mind overnight. Tharp leads you through the painful first steps of scratching for ideas, finding the spine of your work, and getting out of ruts and into productive grooves. The wide-open realm of possibilities can be energizing, and Twyla Tharp explains how to take a deep breath and begin...

Load-Bearing Fibre Composites provides a unified view of the entire field of fiber and platelet composites. This book explores the complex interactions between fibers and matrix. Organized into 12 chapters, this book begins with an overview of the fundamental ideas in the field of fiber reinforced composites. This text then provides data on their load-bearing capabilities. Other chapters consider a rough estimate of how strong a material could be and describe the two main sources of weakness in real materials. This book discusses as well the slender forms of material and describes the simple slip theory of reinforcement that gives the modulus and strength for aligned short-fiber composites. The final chapter deals with the versatile use of fiber reinforced materials, which can be designed for a specific application by suitable choice of components and volume fraction. This book is a valuable resource for materials scientists, metallurgists, designers, engineers, and research workers.
