White Holes: The Beginning and End of SpaceWhite Holes: The Beginning and End of Space

The theory of white holes is controversial within the science community. White hole theory is closely linked to the theory of black holes and wormholes but has no clear evidence of existing in the physical world. It has its roots in mathematical theories. To understand white holes, the theories of black holes and wormholes also must be explained.

A Life Full of Holes: A Novel Recorded and Translated by Paul Bowles (P.S.)

 A Life Full of Holes: A Novel Recorded and Translated by Paul Bowles (P.S.)One of the most unusual literary innovations ever produced, A Life Full of Holes is the result of a singular collaboration between two remarkable individuals: Driss ben Hamed Charhadi, an illiterate North African servant and street vendor, and legendary American novelist and essayist Paul Bowles. The powerful story of a shepherd and petty trafficker struggling to maintain hope as he wrestles with the grim realities of daily life, it is the first novel ever written in the Arabic dialect Moghrebi, faithfully recorded and translated into English by Bowles. Straightforward yet rich in complex emotions, it is a fascinating inside look at an unfamiliar culture—harsh and startling, yet interwoven with a poignant, poetic beauty.

Black Holes and Time Warps: Einstein’s Outrageous LegacyEver since Albert Einstein’s general theory of relativity burst upon the world in 1915 some of the most brilliant minds of our century have sought to decipher the mysteries bequeathed by that theory, a legacy so unthinkable in some respects that even Einstein himself rejected them. Which of these bizarre phenomena, if any, can really exist in our universe? Black holes, down which anything can fall but from which nothing can return; wormholes, short spacewarps connecting regions of the cosmos; singularities, where space and time are so violently warped that time ceases to exist and space becomes a kind of foam; gravitational waves, which carry symphonic accounts of collisions of black holes billions of years ago.............
