Entanglement: The Greatest Mystery in Physics
The lines between 'science' and 'science fiction' have become increasingly blurred. Now, quantum mechanics promises that some of humanity's wildest dreams may be realized. Serious scientists, working from Einstein's theories, have been investigating the phenomenon known as 'entanglement' one of the strangest aspects of our strange universe.
Beyond Reason: Eight Great Problems That Reveal the Limits of Science
A mind-bending excursion to the limits of science and mathematics
Are some scientific problems insoluble? In Beyond Reason,
internationally acclaimed math and science author A. K. Dewdney answers
this question by examining eight insurmountable mathematical and
scientific roadblocks that have stumped thinkers across the centuries,
from ancient mathematical conundrums such as "squaring the circle,"
first attempted by the Pythagoreans, to Godel's vexing theorem, from
perpetual motion to the upredictable behavior of chaotic systems such
as the weather.
The Forsyte Saga is John Galsworthy's monumental chronicle of the lives of the moneyed Forsytes, a family whose values are constantly at war with its passions. The story of Soames Forsyte's marriage to the beautiful and rebellious Irene, and its effects upon the whole Forsyte clan, The Forsyte Saga is a brilliant social satire of the acquisitive sensibilities of a comfort-bound class in its final glory. Galsworthy spares none of his characters, revealing their weaknesses and shortcomings as clearly as he does the tenacity and perseverance that define the strongest members of the Forsyte family.
