  Invisibility - The History and...

  A lively exploration of how invisibility has gone from science fiction to fact 
   
   
   
  Is it possible for something or someone to be made invisible? This question, which has intrigued authors of science fiction for over a century, has become a headline-grabbing topic of scientific research. 
   
   
   
  In this book, science writer and optical physicist Gregory J. Gbur traces the science of invisibility from its sci-fi origins in the nineteenth-century writings of authors such as H. G. Wells and Fitz James O'Brien to modern stealth technology, invisibility cloaks, and metamaterials. He explores the history of invisibility and its science and technology connections, including the discovery of the electromagnetic spectrum, the development of the atomic model, and quantum theory. He shows how invisibility has moved from fiction to reality, and he questions the hidden paths that lie ahead for researchers. 
   
   
   
  This is not only the story of invisibility but also the story of humankind's understanding of the nature of light itself, and of the many fascinating figures whose discoveries advanced this knowledge.

  Carbon Technocracy - Energy...

  A forceful reckoning with the relationship between energy and power through the history of what was once East Asia’s largest coal mine. 
   
  The coal-mining town of Fushun in China’s Northeast is home to a monstrous open pit. First excavated in the early twentieth century, this pit grew like a widening maw over the ensuing decades, as various Chinese and Japanese states endeavored to unearth Fushun’s purportedly “inexhaustible” carbon resources. Today, the depleted mine that remains is a wondrous and terrifying monument to fantasies of a fossil-fueled future and the technologies mobilized in attempts to turn those developmentalist dreams into reality. 
   
  In Carbon Technocracy, Victor Seow uses the remarkable story of the Fushun colliery to chart how the fossil fuel economy emerged in tandem with the rise of the modern technocratic state. Taking coal as an essential feedstock of national wealth and power, Chinese and Japanese bureaucrats, engineers, and industrialists deployed new technologies like open-pit mining and hydraulic stowage in pursuit of intensive energy extraction. But as much as these mine operators idealized the might of fossil fuel–driven machines, their extractive efforts nevertheless relied heavily on the human labor that those devices were expected to displace. Under the carbon energy regime, countless workers here and elsewhere would be subjected to invasive techniques of labor control, ever-escalating output targets, and the dangers of an increasingly exploited earth. 
   
  Although Fushun is no longer the coal capital it once was, the pattern of aggressive fossil-fueled development that led to its ascent endures. As we confront a planetary crisis precipitated by our extravagant consumption of carbon, it holds urgent lessons. This is a groundbreaking exploration of how the mutual production of energy and power came to define industrial modernity and the wider world that carbon made.

  Why choose between healthy, organic vegetables and saving money, when you can have both? And you can do it in just a few weeks! 
  People are constantly on the lookout for ways to feed themselves and their families with the right amounts of vitamins and minerals needed to stay healthy. Sadly, this is becoming more and more expensive. 
  It costs around two dollars for one pound of tomatoes and more than double that if you want to go organic. 
  In comparison, for just five dollars, you can plant a whole pack of tomato seeds with each plant producing an average of 10 pounds. 
  Add to that the fewer trips to the grocery store and no plastic wrapping—you are onto a winner. 
  According to the National Gardening Association, the average gardener will spend only $70 a year on their garden but grow $600 worth of food. 
  On top of the savings, you get to enjoy freshly harvested vegetables from your garden, knowing that not a single chemical has been used. That’s health and savings in one fun activity! 
  Many will look at vegetable gardens and marvel at the time and skill it must have taken. In fact, all it has taken is knowledge and patience. 
  The patience is up to you, but the knowledge you need is right here at your future green fingertips. 
  In Avoid the Mistakes as a First Time Gardener Growing Vegetables, here is just a fraction of what you will discover: 
  A step-by-step guide to growing and harvesting over 50 easy-to-grow vegetables regardless of the size of your garden 
  Tests you can do at home to understand your soil quality and the methods to correct it...before making a mistake 
  Two simple composting techniques so you can feed your soil, reduce household waste by up to 30 percent, and help the environment 
  The benefits of adding herbs and flowers to your vegetable garden to encourage pollination, and reduce pest invasions—all while adding nutrients and flavor to your meals

  This audiobook has been recorded using Text to speech (TTS). 
   
  Do you believe in God? If so, which one? Is it the Christian all-knowing, all-seeing father of Jesus? Is it Allah of Islam? The many deities of Hinduism? Or are you one of those that believes in God but not religion? 
   
  Whichever box you tick on the form, you have some kind of belief. Even if you're an atheist, you believe there is no God. That we all came from nothing. But there are massive questions that mankind has asked from the very beginning. Where did everything come from? Is there a meaning to our lives? Are we alone in the universe? 
   
  These questions and many more have fascinated mankind from the moment he could reason. And eventually we created a thing called science to discover the answers. To many, science eradicated the need for God to answer all the questions we could not answer. Delete faith and replace with scientific facts. The problem is that science has not yet answered all of the questions and many believe it never will. Or has it? 
   
  Today we are beginning to understand the complexities and even strangeness of the sub-atomic world. This new quantum realm is opening up new avenues of research and new inventions. All things are made of particles. The entire universe is formed from them. And now we are creating quantum computers that think at the quantum level. What answers will the union of artificial intelligence and this amazing quantum world bring? Will we now have the answers to the ultimate questions? 
   
  This is the story of the new scientific world of particle physics and the amazing unseen world it reveals.
