Before The Big Bang - The Origin...

Laura Mersini-Houghton

A revolutionary new account of our universe’s creation—and a breathtaking exploration of the landscape from which we sprang—from one of the world’s most celebrated cosmologists
What came before the Big Bang, and what exists outside of the universe it created? Until recently, scientists could only guess at what lay past the edge of space-time. However, as pioneering theoretical physicist Laura Mersini-Houghton explains, new scientific tools are now giving us the ability to peer beyond the limits of our universe and to test our theories about what is there. And what we are finding is upending everything we thought we knew about the cosmos and our place in it.
Mersini-Houghton is no stranger to boundaries—or to pushing through them. As a child growing up in Communist Albania, she discovered a universe beyond her walled-off world through the study of math and science, and through music. As a female cosmologist in a male-dominated field, she transcended the limits that society and her profession tried to place on her. And as a trailblazing researcher, she helped to revolutionize the study of our universe by revealing that, far from living in a cosmic Albania, with a world that ends at its borders, we are part of a larger family of universes—a multiverse—that holds wonders we are only beginning to unlock. Mersini-Houghton’s groundbreaking research suggests that we sit in a quantum landscape whose peaks and valleys hide a multitude of other universes, and even hold the secret to the origins of existence itself. Recent evidence has revealed the signatures of such sibling universes in our own night sky, confirming Mersini-Houghton’s theoretical work and offering humbling evidence that our universe is just one member of an unending cosmic family.
The incredible scientific saga of one woman’s mind-expanding journey through the multiverse, Before the Big Bang will reshape our understanding of humanity’s place in the unfathomable vastness of the cosmos.

Digital Nomad - Travel the World...

Daniel Shore

The digital nomad lifestyle has gained popularity in recent years due to advancements in technology and a shift in work culture towards remote employment. Digital nomads typically rely on laptops, smartphones, and internet connectivity to perform their work from anywhere with a reliable internet connection. This lifestyle enables individuals to break free from the traditional office setting, allowing them to choose their own hours, travel to new destinations, and immerse themselves in different cultures.
One of the key aspects of the digital nomad lifestyle is flexibility. Since most digital nomads work as freelancers, consultants, or remote employees, they have the freedom to design their own work schedule. This flexibility allows them to prioritize experiences over material possessions, spending their time and resources on travel, exploration, and personal growth.
However, the digital nomad lifestyle also comes with its challenges. Adapting to different time zones, managing work-life balance, and maintaining a stable income stream while on the road can be daunting tasks. Digital nomads must also navigate visa requirements, cultural differences, and logistical issues related to accommodation, transportation, and healthcare.
Despite these challenges, many individuals find the digital nomad lifestyle to be incredibly rewarding. It offers the opportunity to live and work on their own terms, fostering creativity, independence, and a sense of adventure. Whether it's working from a beachside cafe in Bali, a co-working space in Lisbon, or a mountain retreat in Colorado, the digital nomad lifestyle opens up a world of possibilities for those willing to embrace it.

Cosmic Alchemy - The Science...

Dirk Fallon

The cosmos, a vast and mysterious expanse, has captivated the human imagination for centuries. From ancient civilizations gazing at the stars to modern scientists peering through telescopes, the desire to understand the universe and our place within it has been a constant driving force in our pursuit of knowledge. In this chapter, we begin our journey into the cosmos, exploring its origin, structure, and the fundamental forces that shape it.
The origin of the universe is a topic that has intrigued scientists and philosophers alike. According to the widely accepted Big Bang theory, the universe began as an incredibly dense and hot point around 13.8 billion years ago. This singularity rapidly expanded, and over time, matter cooled, forming the stars, galaxies, and other cosmic structures we observe today. The formation of the universe marks the beginning of everything we know—space, time, and energy. As the universe continues to expand, we are left with the challenge of understanding its past and predicting its future.
Gravity is one of the most important forces in the cosmos. It governs the motion of celestial bodies, from the smallest particles to the largest galaxies. Gravity pulls objects together, and it is responsible for the formation of stars, planets, and galaxies. The force of gravity also plays a crucial role in shaping the universe on a cosmic scale, influencing the way matter is distributed and the way galaxies cluster together. Without gravity, the universe as we know it would not exist. It is the force that holds everything together, from the Earth we live on to the farthest reaches of space.

Algorithms

Panos Louridas

Digital technology runs on algorithms, sets of instructions that describe how to do something efficiently. Application areas range from search engines to tournament scheduling, DNA sequencing, and machine learning. Arguing that every educated person today needs to have some understanding of algorithms and what they do, in this volume in the MIT Press Essential Knowledge series, Panos Louridas offers an introduction to algorithms that is accessible to nonspecialists. Louridas explains not just what algorithms are but also how they work, offering a wide range of examples and keeping mathematics to a minimum. 
 
 
 
After discussing what an algorithm does and how its effectiveness can be measured, Louridas covers three of the most fundamental applications areas: graphs, which describe networks, from eighteenth-century problems to today's social networks; searching, and how to find the fastest way to search; and sorting, and the importance of choosing the best algorithm for particular tasks. He then presents larger-scale applications: PageRank, Google's founding algorithm; and neural networks and deep learning. Finally, Louridas describes how all algorithms are nothing more than simple moves with pen and paper, and how from such a humble foundation rise all their spectacular achievements.
