Is The Universe Trying to Kill Me?
In Is the Universe Trying to Kill Me?, physicist and award-winning science writer Brian Clegg reveals how the mind-bending principles of quantum physics - like superposition, entanglement, and the multiverse - shed light on life's everyday mysteries. Discover if black holes are leaking, why the sun works (and why it shouldn't), whether the universe is actively out to get you and a whole world of other quantum conundrums you never thought to ask. Quantum physics isn't just abstract theory, it's present everywhere in the chaos of our daily lives, influencing how we love, decide, and think. Why do we keep chasing the people who don't want us? Could your future self actually be sending you a message? Is free will an illusion or a cosmic paradox? With clear explanations and real-world anecdotes along with diagrams and illustrations on every page, this book unpicks the strange, often counterintuitive laws of quantum physics and exposes the unexpected ways the universe shapes human experience. Is the Universe Trying to Kill Me? will challenge everything you thought you knew about yourself and the world around you. Prepare to discover a universe far stranger and far more entangled with your life than you ever imagined...

The Electron
As a fundamental particle, the electron is central to understanding the nature of matter.All of chemistry is dependent on the interaction of electrons on the outside of atoms. But the electron has also become increasingly central to our lives, first through the deployment of electricity and then as the essential driving force of electronics, with all its quantum subtlety. We spend our entire lives now bathed in the electron's output, whether we are simply turning on a light, looking at a phone or working on a computer. And with the move away from fossil fuels, the electron becomes ever more our most important servant.In this fascinating book, Brian Clegg reveals a remarkable story of scientific wonder and innovation, and paints a compelling picture of one of the most essential components of life itself.

Merlin's Tour of the Universe
*Fully revised and updated for the 21st century*The #1 New York Times bestselling author of Astrophysics for People in a Hurry takes readers on an entertaining and edifying tour of the universe. In Neil deGrasse Tyson's delightful journey through the cosmos, his fictional character Merlin responds to popular questions asked by adults and children alike. Merlin, a timeless visitor from Planet Omniscia in the Andromeda Galaxy, has observed first-hand many of the major scientific events of Earth's history. Merlin's friends include the most important scientific figures and explorers of all time - da Vinci, Magellan, Newton, Einstein and Hubble. While Merlin occasionally recounts playful conversations with these luminaries, all questions are answered with authentic science, infused with wit, wisdom, and an occasional rhyme. With the help of intermittent humorous cartoons, Merlin clarifies the details of familiar phenomena like gravity, light, space, and time and travels to distant stars and galaxies to describe what makes them tick, rotate, explode, and collapse. Merlin's Tour of the Universe is perfect for anyone who harbours burning questions on how the cosmos works.

The Biggest Ideas in the Universe 2
THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER 'Neat, and extremely simple: only a deep thinker such as Sean Carroll could introduce the complexity of Einstein's general relativity in such a luminous and straightforward manner.' Carlo Rovelli, author of Seven Brief Lessons on Physics Immense, strange and infinite, the world of modern physics often feels impenetrable to the undiscerning eye - a jumble of muons, gluons and quarks, impossible to explain without several degrees and a research position at CERN. But it doesn't have to be this way! Allow world-renowned theoretical physicist and bestselling author Sean Carroll to guide you through the biggest ideas in the universe. Elegant and simple, Carroll unravels a web of theory to get to the heart of the truths they represent about the world around us. - In Quanta and Fields, the second in this landmark trilogy, Carroll delves into the baffling and beautiful world of quantum mechanics. From Schrödinger to Feynman, Carroll travels through the quantum revolution with the greatest minds of the twentieth century. Exploring how several decades of research overturned centuries of convention, Carroll provides a dazzling tour of the most exciting ideas in modern science.

Brainjacking
Brainjacking explores the psychology of storytelling - the ability that makes us human. To discover how science intersects with our desires and decisions, the book pulls together three ways that we use story to modify others' brains: informing, influencing and manipulating. Running through education and politics, advertising and marketing we discover how techniques can range from subtle nudges and subliminal influences to powerful emotional manipulation. With Brian Clegg as your guide, this is a book that will help you unpick the insidious world of brainjacking. Expertly pulling together different strands on disparate topics including AI, Big Data, social media and more, this essential investigation shows how new and old technology and science can be combined to influence human behaviour and beliefs.

Infinito : una guía ilustrada
El infinito es un concepto profundamente anti-intuitivo y desconcertante que ha inspirado a muchos grandes pensadores (y provocado e impresionado a otros).Los antiguos griegos estaban tan horrorizados por las implicaciones de un número sin fin que ahogaron al hombre que difundió el secreto. Y un matemático alemán se volvió loco por las repercusiones de su descubrimiento de loa números transfinitos.El brillante viaje de Brian Clegg y Oliver Pugh alrededor del infinito presenta una variedad de personajes que van desde Arquímedes y Pitágoras a al-Khwarizmi, Fibonacci, Galileo, Newton, Leibniz, Cantor, Venn, Gödel y Mandelbrot, y muestra cómo el infinito ha desafío a las mentes más agudas de la ciencia y las matemáticas. Prepárate para entrar en un mundo de paradojas.
