The Cosmos Explained is an exciting and beautifully designed book that charts the life of our universe from the Big Bang to the present day and beyond. Starting with the moment of the Big Bang—at exactly one ten-millionth of a trillionth of a trillionth of a trillionth of a second—this book charts a history of space and time all the way through the evolution of our solar system, the birth of stars and the formation of life on Earth, to the future of our galaxy and beyond. With deeply insightful and fascinating text by Hayden Planetarium Associate Professor Charles Liu, who also hosts the immensely popular StarTalk podcast, this book is an accessible and enthralling gateway into the mysteries of space, time and the universe. Pinpoint exactly where you are in space and time using the timeline at the bottom of every page, and explore the history of the cosmos and the science behind it through beautiful telescope images and striking illustrations. Packaged in a unique retro design that reflects the 1960s cosmonaut era but still feels modern and relevant today, this title is as rich with information as it is with stunning visualisations of the concepts and bodies detailed within. An ideal gift for anyone interested in space or curious about the cosmos, The Cosmos Explained is a unique and entertaining timeline of life, the universe, and everything!

The universe literally encompasses everything we were, are and will be, everything we knew, know and can know. When we decide to understand the universe as a whole, new truths come to light, and unexpected perspectives illuminate our take on life. 30-Second Universe explains all the tantalising concepts, principles and theories that make up our knowledge - the Higgs particle, gluons, quarks, the multiverse, how certainty itself can be uncertain, and of course, where our world came from, and where we're going and what will happen in the end - and it explains these astrophysical answers succinctly, each entry taking only 30 seconds to read, with further exploration flagged, and key scientists noted. This one small book sheds light on the biggest ideas, concepts and discoveries in life, in the universe, in everything.

The Many Voices of Modern Physics follows a revolution that began in 1905 when Albert Einstein published papers on special relativity and quantum theory. Unlike Newtonian physics, this new physics often departs wildly from common sense, a radical divorce that presents a unique communicative challenge to physicists when writing for other physicists or for the general public, and to journalists and popular science writers as well. In their two long careers, Joseph Harmon and the late Alan Gross have explored how scientists communicate with each other and with the general public. Here, they focus not on the history of modern physics but on its communication. In their survey of physics communications and related persuasive practices, they move from peak to peak of scientific achievement, recalling how physicists use the communicative tools available—in particular, thought experiments, analogies, visuals, and equations—to convince others that what they say is not only true but significant, that it must be incorporated into the body of scientific and general knowledge. Each chapter includes a chorus of voices, from the many celebrated physicists who devoted considerable time and ingenuity to communicating their discoveries, to the science journalists who made those discoveries accessible to the public, and even to philosophers, sociologists, historians, an opera composer, and a patent lawyer. With their final collaboration, Harmon and Gross offer a tribute to the communicative practices of the physicists who convinced their peers and the general public that the universe is a far more bizarre and interesting place than their nineteenth-century predecessors imagined.

The Physics of Encounter suggests explanations for paranormal phenomena. It describes the hidden force that generates consciousness and enables our mind to influence physical events. The proposed conceptual model shows that mind and matter are two sides of the same coin and introduces new interpretations of pivotal concepts into the public debate about science and religion. Written for readers of all backgrounds, the book illuminates the controversial views regarding the nature of our universe. Could our minds be imbedded in a field of cosmic consciousness? Was our universe created "from nothing" or is it a pulsating reality, expanding and collapsing? The book examines the issue of consciousness in the light of recently developed theories of vacum fluctuations and oscillating strings. It describes how "entanglements" with a hidden force give rise to such baffling phenomena as Near-Death-Experiences, UFOs, and backward causation. Last not least the book examines fears that have recently resurfaced in the media: could our entire earth be pulled into a black hole? Could the simulation of a big bang in an immensely powerful particle accelerator, like the one at the atomic research lab CERN near Geneva, create such a fateful event? As you read this, the earth is still circling around the sun. The book provides a framework for a rational discussion of fascinating and by no means trivial phenomena.

Selected as one of the year's most compelling debut novels for Kobo's Emerging Writer Prize, Shadow Stitcher is guaranteed to deliight. This fast paced Noir mystery has a great cast of easily identifiable characters, a plot both easy to follow and intriguing, and an ending that will leave you satisfied. ----- "...a rollicking mystery with a fascinating setting, a magical world with a hardboiled edge. For a novel with noir leanings, it’s a surprisingly bright read; light, airy, and joyous, as if it’s been sprinkled with fairy dust." - Ilana Lucas ----- About the book: Basil Stark isn’t the man he once was. A reformed pirate and private detective, he walks the line between criminal and hero, living in the corners of what was once the island of Neverland, its magic slowly fading into the new world of the 1950s. But when a routine missing-persons case turns into a murder investigation, Basil finds himself pulled into a tale of organized crime, murder, unstitched shadows and dangerous espionage. With only a handful of fellow outcasts and a stubborn determination to bring a killer to justice, will he survive the many people who want him dead? ----- "...a mystery that was complex and satisfying without being convoluted just for the sake of it, a twist that felt earned and didn't come entirely out of left-field, characters who were interesting and whose motivations slowly unspooled in a really satisfying way, and just the right balance of magic and grime." - Wren Handman ----- About the Author: Misha Handman has been involved in writing for most of his life. He started by writing comics for his friends in elementary school and was promptly drawn into the artistic world by their approval, moving on to produce short stories and collaborative works. He has lived in cities across Canada, including Victoria, Ottawa, and Toronto, and refuses to pick a favourite no matter how much his friends bother him about it. For now, Victoria is his home. Praise: "I would wholeheartedly recommend this book to anyone looking for an easy-to-read story that blends mystery, fantasy, action, and a little splash of romance, and I eagerly await the next Everland Mystery." - Jonathan Miller Shadow Stitcher is a must read Noir-Fantasy Novel!

Everyone will hate this book. It is based on the course, Ethics for Police Recruits, that Robert D’Ambola has instructed for over 20 years. He has presented this class to almost 5,000 Police Officers. Soon-to-be Police Officers will hate this book because it should scare the hell out of them and make them question why they want to do this job. Veteran cops will hate it because it will remind them of the shit they had to put up with every day, and the challenges they face, while getting no appreciation or recognition. The bosses will hate it because they are the bosses and responsible for a lot of the shit. The politicians will hate it because they make the rules about things they have no clue about and the police ultimately get blamed for. The media will hate it because of their skewed portrayal of the real American heroes of society, to make them out to be the bad guys when they are not. And then there are times the police turn out to be exactly that – the bad guys. The Police Training Commission will hate this book because it exposes the fact that they are running a dog and pony show to make the politicians and insurance companies happy instead of building a truly professional, intelligent, capable, police officer who can deal with the current rigors of the job, while protecting themselve at the same time. The public will absolutely hate this book because they get what they pay for, they have no idea what they are paying for, and they don’t know what they truly want from the police. Do they want a warrior or a guardian? The book was not designed to slam any specific group but should be used to improve the entire Law Enforcement instructional model. It is to learn from history so we do not repeat the same mistakes, and continue to pass on The Stupid Gene to the next generation of Law Enforcement Officers. In these turbulent times, Law Enforcement needs to drastically improve in all areas before the entire system as we know it is abolished. This is a raw subject so I have injected my own twisted humor to make it a bit more palatable. Maybe you can handle the truth. Read on. Feel free to hate this book as long as you learn something from it.

Creativity is a natural force that drives innovation and change. This book explores how nature itself is creative – constantly shaping and reshaping life, matter, and the environment through a dynamic process of evolution. At its heart, this book looks at the deep connections between mind and body, action and thought, chaos and order, and humans and other living beings. It is a thought-provoking read for anyone curious about how life, human thought, and culture were invented by nature and about the many analogies and formal similarities that can be found between natural and human creativity. Human creativity has helped us adapt, survive, and even transform our surroundings to suit our needs. But evolution also shows us that our understanding of ‘reality’ is always changing. What we think is real is often shaped – or distorted – by our perception. Existence, like time and space, is flexible and open to change. Nature gave rise to the human mind, and with it, the powerful tools of emotion, science, and art – tools that shape the cultures we live in. The author invites us to see Earth as a living artwork, now facing a crucial turning point shaped by human influence.

The biggest science story of our time, Massive spans four decades, weaving together the personal narratives and international rivalries behind the search for the "God" particle, or Higgs boson. A story of grand ambition, intense competition, clashing egos, and occasionally spectacular failures, Massive is the first book that reveals the science, culture, and politics behind the biggest unanswered question in modern physics -- what gives things mass? Drawing upon his unprecedented access to Peter Higgs, after whom the particle is named, award-winning science writer Ian Sample chronicles the multinational and multibillion-dollar quest to solve the mystery of mass. For scientists, to find the God particle is to finally understand the origin of mass, and until now, the story of their search has never been told.
