Darwinism stated by Darwin himself - Characteristic passages from the writings of Charles Darwin

Charles Darwin

Maison d'édition: Good Press

Synopsis

In "Darwinism stated by Darwin himself," Charles Darwin articulates the foundational concepts of his groundbreaking theory of evolution, emphasizing natural selection as the primary mechanism of gradual species change. The book is marked by a meticulous literary style that blends scientific rigor with accessible language, allowing both scholars and lay readers to engage with profound ideas. Contextually, this work emerges during the late 19th century, a period rife with scientific exploration and intellectual upheaval, marking a shift in understanding life sciences and challenging established beliefs about creation and species origin. Charles Darwin, an esteemed naturalist and biologist, meticulously observed diverse biological phenomena during his extensive voyages, most notably on the HMS Beagle. His exposure to various ecosystems and species diversity provided the impetus for formulating his theories on evolution. The synthesis of his empirical observations and introspective analysis culminated in this work, aiming to convey complex ideologies with clarity and precision. I wholeheartedly recommend "Darwinism stated by Darwin himself" to readers interested in the intersections of science, philosophy, and history. This essential text not only elucidates the principles of evolution but also sparks a deeper understanding of humanity's place within the natural world, making it a pivotal addition to any thoughtful reader's library.

Mirror horse

Tamara Williamson

English/Canadian indie musician Tamara Williamson offers an unbridled account of a life in the world of horses. 
From her first clever little bay pony, Stroller, to brilliant ribbon-winning Fletcher, Tamara Williamson recalls the many significant horses in her life, grappling with what it means to be horse-obsessed and what drives this desire to connect with horses. As Williamson discovers, during the tumultuous years of relationships with people and horses, these complicated equine creatures reflect back to us our best and worst selves. 
Woven throughout the stories of individual horses in Williamson’s life is her own story of a creative, chaotic, challenging and adventurous life. Raised by an eccentric family, with a distant mother who disappeared into alcoholism and a charismatic father who left one sunny morning with a younger woman, Williamson struggles with dyslexia and a sense of increasing detachment. Horses, and the exacting sport of dressage, provide her with opportunities to connect, sometimes imperfectly. Her drive for accomplishment in equestrian sports, whether as a trainer or a rider, is regularly at odds with the fear that lingers from a traumatic childhood riding accident. 
While reckoning with the financial and psychological expense of training and competition, and with the multitude of industries that benefit from horses, Williamson never loses sight of the enormous burden of responsibility she feels toward horses and the respect she has for their individual characters, memories and instincts. On the surface, The Mirror Horse is a book about horses—but beyond the bridles and braided manes, Williamson crafts a complex story about courage, family, and the unexpected places where we find a reflection of our souls: As a rider you can confuse yourself with being the teacher, but horses are constantly showing us something important. They are holding up a mirror.

The Wireless World - Global...

Friederike Kind-Kovacs, Andrea...

The Wireless World sets out a new research agenda for the history of international broadcasting, and for radio history more generally. It examines global and transnational histories of long-distance wireless broadcasting, combining perspectives from international history, media and cultural history, the history of technology, and sound studies. It is a cowritten book, the result of more than five years of collaboration. Bringing together their knowledge of a wide range of different countries, languages, and archives, the coauthors show how broadcasters and states deployed international broadcasting as a tool of international communication and persuasion. 
 
 
 
Exploring the idea of a "wireless world," a globe connected, both in imagination and reality, by radio, The Wireless World sheds new light on the transnational connections created by international broadcasting. Bringing together all periods of international broadcasting within a single analytical frame, the study reveals key continuities and transformations. It looks at how wireless was shaped by internationalist ideas about the use of broadcasting to promote world peace and understanding, at how empires used broadcasting to perpetuate colonialism, and at how anti-colonial movements harnessed radio as a weapon of decolonization.

Fermi Remembered

James W. Cronin

Nobel laureate and scientific luminary Enrico Fermi (1901-54) was a pioneering nuclear physicist whose contributions to the field were numerous, profound, and lasting. Best known for his involvement with the Manhattan Project and his work at Los Alamos that led to the first self-sustained nuclear reaction and ultimately to the production of electric power and plutonium for atomic weapons, Fermi's legacy continues to color the character of the sciences at the University of Chicago. During his tenure as professor of physics at the Institute for Nuclear Studies, Fermi attracted an extraordinary scientific faculty and many talented students—ten Nobel Prizes were awarded to faculty or students under his tutelage. Born out of a symposium held to commemorate the hundredth anniversary of Fermi's birth, Fermi Remembered combines essays and newly commissioned reminiscences with private material from Fermi's research notebooks, correspondence, speech outlines, and teaching to document the profound and enduring significance of Fermi's life and labors. The volume also features extensives archival material—including correspondence between Fermi and biophysicist Leo Szilard and a letter from Harry Truman—with new introductions that provide context for both the history of physics and the academic tradition at the University of Chicago. Edited by James W. Cronin, a University of Chicago physicist and Nobel laureate himself, Fermi Remembered is a tender tribute to one of the greatest scientists of the twentieth century.
