Synopsis

Albert Einstein's "The Theory of Relativity" stands as a monumental work that revolutionized our understanding of space, time, and gravity. Written in a clear yet profound literary style, this book introduces the cornerstone concepts of the Special and General Theory of Relativity, challenging conventional Newtonian perspectives. Einstein seamlessly weaves complex mathematical concepts with accessible language, placing his theories within the larger framework of early 20th-century physics, where the burgeoning fields of quantum mechanics and cosmology were beginning to take shape. Einstein, revered not only as a physicist but also as a philosopher, was profoundly influenced by the scientific and intellectual currents of his time, including the works of Maxwell and Poincaré. His extensive background in theoretical physics, coupled with his personal experiences—such as grappling with the implications of electromagnetic theory—shaped the development of his revolutionary ideas. This book reflects his innovative spirit and deep curiosity about the universe, revealing insights that extend beyond the realm of physics alone. Recommended for both seasoned physicists and curious readers alike, "The Theory of Relativity" invites you to contemplate the mysteries of the cosmos and the very fabric of reality. Delve into Einstein's extraordinary vision, and discover how his groundbreaking theories continue to influence modern science and our understanding of the universe today.

    “Humanity is the core of our business.” — Richard Walker 
     
    As the CEO of a prominent IT consulting firm, York Solutions, Richard Walker has applied the principle of Relationship Equity to achieve tremendous business success as he builds the tech talent pool and helps professionals develop their careers. Walker describes Relationship Equity as the good faith you can build by investing in relationships faithfully and steadily, with no expectation of reaping a return. 
     
    In his new book, Relationship Equity: Your Cornerstone Investment to Great Gains in Business and Life, Walker takes his readers on a journey of discovery, examining a principle with the power to revolutionize both business and personal lives. 
     
    He explains that the relationships we forge with others are of supreme importance—and when you get those right, the rest will follow. 
     
    “If you are a friend who is genuine,” he writes, “you will have genuine friends—and lo and behold— they will want to help you just as you have helped them.” 
     
    Sounds simple? It’s not. 
     
    Relationship Equity has many nuances, and Walker explores them all in Relationship Equity. To share the story of how he developed the philosophy, he escorts his readers back to the small-town world of his youth in northern England, then onward to his corporate life at the helm of a thriving American tech company. 
     
    “In our families, our businesses, our communities, our world—we need one another,” Walker writes. “We are not islands unto ourselves.” 
     
    In his new book, Walker teaches us what he and his company are doing today to pay forward the many acts of kindness that have come his way through the years. Richard Walker has made it his business to change lives for the better, and his business reflects that.

    For many, the past few years have been defined by climate disaster. Stories about once-in-a-lifetime hurricanes, floods, fires, droughts, and even snowstorms are now commonplace. But dramatic weather events are not new and Northeaster, Cathie Pelletier's breathtaking account of the 1952 snowstorm that blanketed New England, offers a valuable reminder about nature's capacity for destruction as well as insight into the human instinct for preservation. 
     
     
     
    Northeaster weaves together a rich cast of characters whose lives were uprooted and endangered by the storm. Housewives and lobstermen, loggers and soldiers were all trapped as snow piled in drifts twenty feet high. The storm smothered hundreds of travelers in their cars, covered entire towns, and broke ships in half. In the midst of the blizzard's chaos, there were remarkable acts of heroism and courageous generosities. Doctors braved the storm to help deliver babies. Ordinary people kept their wits while buried in their cars, and others made their way out of forests to find kindhearted strangers willing to take them in. 
     
     
     
    It's likely that none of us know how we would handle a confrontation with a blizzard or other natural disaster. But Northeaster shows that we have it inside to fight for survival in some of the harshest conditions that nature has to offer.

    Welcome to a journey through speculative fictions, where the possibilities of tomorrow are explored like never before. In a new collaborative approach, renowned experts, armed with their deep knowledge of justice, energy, digital money, longevity and learning, join forces with talented authors to weave narratives that transcend the future that you may currently believe is inevitable.  
    Situated in 'real-life' between accelerationism and scepticism, this volume of disruptions serves as a thought-provoking look into the potential consequences of scientific progress, technological development and societal evolution.  
    "What a wonderful and inspiring alternative to the so-called 'world-building' of today's science fiction industry. Here are some real lessons on how to speculate in ways that may actually open new potentials for human flourishing." Douglas Rushkoff, Team Human. 
    "This book offers an essential collaboration between domain experts, writers, and editors, fusing foresight and technological exploration to offer narratives both visionary and eerily plausible." Dr Helen Marshall, Director, WhatIF Lab, Queensland University. 
      
    "The stories and commentaries make us take a long hard look at the world we have ahead of us, knowing that the problems aren't with AI, climate, money, health, or knowledge. Rather, they come from our relationships with them. The lessons are aplenty, but more importantly, there is hope." Yen Ooi, 2023 Hugo Awards finalist and Director, London Science Fiction Research Community. 
    "This clever collection of speculative stories explores the possible futures that await us. Through a series of narratives that weave together technological, ethical and societal futures, we are also gifted great analysis and commentary from experts in their fields." Tracey Fellows, Futurist, Author of 'The Future Of You'.

    Time is one of life’s biggest mysteries. In The Order of Time (2017), physicist Carlo Rovelli dives into both simple and complex aspects of time. It is a concept that has been long studied by philosophers, artists, and scientists alike, and our understanding of it has gone through many phases. He explains the basic laws of physics, Einstein’s relativity, quantum theory, and his own work in thermal time and loop quantum gravity. Rovelli offers a range of different rationalizations of time, and his sense of wonder gives time an extraordinarily human aspect.

    Archaeopteryx The: The History...

    The massively popular 1990 novel Jurassic Park by Michael Crichton and its subsequent movie adaptations led to a huge resurgence in interest in dinosaurs and the prehistoric world. That interest continues to the present day, even though most of the dinosaurs in Jurassic Park weren’t actually from the Jurassic period. Triceratops, Velociraptor, Tyrannosaurus Rex and the huge sauropods such as Brachiosaurus that feature in the book and movies all actually belong to the Late Cretaceous period, more than 40 million years after the end of the Jurassic. Regardless, certain kinds of dinosaurs remain instantly recognizable. 
    	The movie also popularized pterodactyls, and the concept of flying dinosaurs fascinates people. There is no doubt that Archaeopteryx, which lived over 150 million years ago, was one of the earliest birds or avialans (bird-like creatures), and when the first fossil of it was discovered, it was hailed as a potential missing link between dinosaurs and birds. The name Archaeopteryx comes from Greek, the word for “ancient” and the term for “wing” or “feather.” The creature is occasionally referenced by the German, “Urvogel,” which literally means “primeval bird.” From the known species of Archaeopteryx, the creature grew no longer than half a meter (20 inches), including its long, bony tail. Despite its bird-like appearance, scientists point out that the genus has far more in common with the dinosaurs of its day than with the thousands of bird species of our modern age. 
    	Over time, however, others would argue it was actually the missing link between birds and other reptiles. Meanwhile, the debate over whether it was the first avialan came and went, as it was discovered to not be the first.
