A Russian dissident, a Jesuit priest, and an American mule skinner are but a few of the bold visionaries who crafted the scientific story of cosmic origins. The collective insights of these and numerous creative thinkers advanced human understanding from mythology to mathematics, yielding falsifiable alternatives to ancient folklore and campfire tales. Listening to the Big Bang tells the dramatic human story—filled with colorful characters, unsung catalysts, and glorified heroes—which made the Big Bang the leading cosmological theory.

In Secrets of Antigravity Propulsion, physicist Paul LaViolette reveals the secret history of antigravity experimentation—from Nikola Tesla and T. Townsend Brown to the B-2 Advanced Technology Bomber. He discloses the existence of advanced gravity-control technologies, under secret military development for decades, that could revolutionize air travel and energy production.

In Love and Math, renowned mathematician Edward Frenkel reveals a side of math we've never seen, suffused with all the beauty and elegance of a work of art. In this heartfelt and passionate book, Frenkel shows that mathematics, far from occupying a specialist niche, goes to the heart of all matter, uniting us across cultures, time, and space.

En collaboration avec deux scientifiques de pointe, Deepak Chopra vous propose d'explorer le monde innovant de la science quantique dont les secrets peuvent révolutionner notre mode de vie, ainsi que notre santé physique et mentale. La clé est le corps quantique. Contrairement à notre corps physique, sujet à la maladie et au vieillissement, le corps quantique existe au niveau subatomique et constitue la source invisible et infinie de la réalité quotidienne qui influence nos pensées, nos émotions, nos sensations et nos réactions biologiques.

The world is currently closer to superpower conflict than at any time since the 1962 Cuban Missile Crisis. World War III is a real possibility, and with 12,000 warheads in the arsenals of more than half a dozen countries, we are standing on a nuclear knife edge. Despite receiving very little attention, nuclear war is a far greater threat to humanity's immediate survival than climate change. While climate heating threatens humanity over many decades, nuclear war could destroy civilisation in just a few hours.

Explore the revolutionary world of quantum computing in Entangled Realities: The Power and Promise of Quantum Computing, a groundbreaking book that unravels the science, history, and transformative potential of one of the most advanced technologies of our time. Quantum computing isn’t just another step in technological evolution—it’s a leap into a new paradigm that challenges our understanding of computation, security, and even the nature of reality itself.

Quantum theory is at the heart of modern physics, but how does it actually work? NASA scientist and communicator Sten Odenwald demystifies the subject and makes this crucial topic accessible to everyone. Featuring topics such as Schrodinger's cat, the wave-particle duality and the newly emerging theories of quantum gravity, as well as the personalities behind the science, such as Max Planck, Neils Bohr, Werner Heisenberg, Richard Feynman and many more, Knowledge in a Nutshell: Quantum Physics provides an essential introduction to cutting edge science.

What has quantum physics taught us about consciousness and the nature of reality? Are we living in a simulation? In order for matter to exist, does it need to be observed? Join Dr. Trevor Lohman as he grapples with these questions and others, plunging listeners into a sea of quantum strangeness while simultaneously helping them navigate these incredibly choppy waters.

Are you ready to explore the unseen forces that shape reality? Quantum Forces: How Quantum Mechanics Meets Ancient Wisdom and Modern Life takes you on a transformative journey through the fascinating world of quantum mechanics. From the strange behaviors of subatomic particles to their profound parallels with ancient philosophies, this comprehensive exploration reveals how quantum science reshapes our understanding of the universe and our place in it.

Earth stands at a tipping point. As we fail to curtail emissions fast enough, our planet stares down a cascade of imminent, catastrophic, and irreversible disaster triggered by climate change. Yet a potent technology already exists to buy us more time: solar geoengineering. Through methods such as atmospheric aerosols, human-generated cirrus clouds, and solar sails, we humans can—at least in the short term—slow the Earth's warming. Should we?
