The surprising truth about how the things our ears hear affect what's between them. Every day, we are surrounded by millions of sounds - ambient ones like the rumble of the train and the hum of air conditioner, as well as more attention-grabbing sounds, such as human speech, music, and sirens. But how do we process what we hear every day? And how does it affect our brains and our minds?

In 1695, Isaac Newton already renowned as the greatest mind of his agemade a surprising career change. He left quiet Cambridge, where he had lived for 30 years and made his earth-shattering discoveries, and moved to London to take up the post of Warden of His Majestys Mint. Newton was preceded to the city by a genius of another kind, the budding criminal William Chaloner.

Les mutations de la matière depuis les débuts de l'Univers et une explication claire de ce qu'est la radioactivité artificielle. La radioactivité est le phénomène qui explique toutes les mutations de la matière depuis la genèse de l'Univers jusqu'à son état actuel. Étienne Klein, physicien au Commissariat à l'Énergie Atomique, expose ici clairement et simplement les mécanismes de ces mutations. La radioactivité artificielle. Il définit ensuite les différents types de radioactivité et donne, sans parti pris, les outils pour comprendre la radioactivité artificielle et les questions qu'elle pose pour les générations présentes et à venir.

The multiverse and the quantum realm are fictional plot devices made popular by some of our favorite superheroes. But what if science-fiction may actually be science-fact? The truth is that many of the fantastical elements we see on the screen are based in real science. And in The Physics of Superheroes: Hollywood Edition, acclaimed physics professor and superhero nerd James Kakalios explains it all.

Are you fascinated by the cosmos and eager to explore the quantum realm without complex equations? Curious about wave-particle duality or how quantum theories impact everyday life, from computing to futuristic tech? Quantum Physics Simplified breaks down mind-bending concepts into engaging, easy-to-follow explanations, making the quantum world accessible to anyone with a curious mind.

For a physicist, all the world is information. The universe and its workings are the ebb and flow of information. We are all transient patterns of information, passing on the recipe for our basic forms to future generations using a four-letter digital code called DNA. In this engaging and mind-stretching account, Vlatko Vedral considers some of the deepest questions about the universe and considers the implications of interpreting it in terms of information.

Un delicioso ensayo que nos adentra en las particularidades de nuestro bien más preciado: el tiempo. ¿Por qué algunas horas pasan volando mientras otras se alargan infinitamente? ¿Por qué la sensación del tiempo transcurrido se diluye inexorablemente ante el tedio y en cambio se desvanece en los momentos de gozo? Hace tiempo que la ciencia definió el tiempo como algo relativo y sin embargo sigue siendo nuestro bien más escaso. Lo prueba el hecho de que somos la generación que más tiempo tiene para sí misma y sin embargo vivimos subyugados por el ritmo incesante de las agujas del reloj.

David J. Helfand reconstructs the history of the universe—back to its first microsecond 13.8 billion years ago—with the help of atoms. He shows how, by using detectors and reactors, microscopes and telescopes, we can decode the tales these infinitesimal particles tell.

Are you seeking a deeper understanding of consciousness? Are you interested in meditation or currently practicing meditation? The Buddha and the Quantum is about the connection between meditation and physics. Many books show parallels between consciousness and physics; a few of these attempt to explain consciousness in terms of the physics of everyday experience. This is the only book that explains physics and the everyday world in terms of consciousness alone.

¿Qué es la física cuántica? ¿Conoces los misterios más grandes del Universo? La física cuántica es, de todas las teorías científicas, la que quizás más verificaciones y contrastaciones ha recibido al mismo tiempo, y a la vez la más determinante para la vida que llevamos en el siglo XXI. El término “cuántica” proviene de “quantum”, que es la unidad más pequeña que conforma la luz. La física cuántica nos enseña que más allá de todo lo que es material y palpable hay energía.

In "Relativity: The Special and the General Theory", Einstein describes the theories that made him famous, illuminating his case with numerous examples and a smattering of math (nothing more complex than high-school algebra). Einstein's book is not casual reading, but for those who appreciate his work without diving into the arcana of theoretical physics, Relativity will prove a stimulating read.

In PULL, Brennan Spiegel, M.D. presents a groundbreaking exploration of how gravity influences conditions of body and mind that have puzzled medical professionals for centuries. Starting with a simple observation at a family dinner and culminating in a new approach to gravity-based health and wellness, PULL is a captivating journey through the human body’s inner struggle to keep us upright and healthy.

In the summer of 1921, Philo T. Farnsworth was not all that different from any other farmer's son in rural Idaho, until he came up with an idea that would change the world–and thrust him into a titanic struggle with one of the most monolithic monopolies in the world. Farnsworth's story of divine inspiration facing off against corporate avarice is a compelling–though seldom told–saga from the 20th century that is still relevant in the 21st.

This bundle of six books includes works covering such varied topics as astrophysics and speculation on matters such as UFOs and time travel.

A short and entertaining introduction to thermodynamics that uses real-world examples to explain accessibly an important but subtle scientific theory.

Humans have long sought to comprehend the enormities of cosmic space and time. Here, best selling science writer Timothy Ferris tells the story of that quest. He interweaves the majestic themes of astronomy, physics, religion, and philosophy with fresh and lasting portraits of the men and women who created what has been called our society's most precious treasure - its conception of the universe at large.

The universe should be fun, and you’re about to discover an audiobook that understands that, weaving humor and wit into every minute so that you not only understand what you’re listening to, but enjoy the whole process.

The product of research around the globe and interviews with dozens of prominent scientists, God's Equation tells us it is almost as though Einstein were God's mouthpiece, revealing the most fundamental truths about our larger environment, truths scientists are just now confirming.

This lively and informative exploration of the heart offers a perfect mix of medical fact and amusing anecdote. A prospective cardiologist and former paramedic - as well as one of Germany's most successful science-slammers - von Borstel relates his own experiences to provide a personal insight into the human side of heart medicine while clearly explaining the science behind cardiac disease and healthcare for the heart.
