Synopsis

Sun Stands Still tackles the fascinating question of whether science can explain the biblical account of Joshua's long day. It bridges Physics and Biblical Studies, exploring if atmospheric refraction could account for the perceived extended daylight.

 
The book uniquely aims to reconcile faith and science by investigating the scientific plausibility of this event, rather than dismissing it outright. One intriguing aspect explored is how light bends through atmospheric layers, potentially distorting our perception of time.

 
The book begins by establishing the historical and biblical context of the event in Joshua. It then transitions into a detailed examination of atmospheric refraction, explaining how it works and how it might have affected the perception of time during Joshua's battle. Theoretical models and meteorological principles are applied to the biblical narrative.

 
This approach allows for a balanced perspective, appealing to those interested in Science and Religion, and those engaged in Biblical Prophecy.

 
The analysis culminates in a discussion of the implications of either validating or refuting a scientific basis for the event. This exploration touches upon the ongoing debates surrounding miracles and offers a nuanced approach to navigating the intersection of scientific and religious explanations.

 
The book encourages informed skepticism and a deeper understanding of both scientific principles and religious beliefs.

    The life of trailblazing physicist Mildred Dresselhaus, who expanded our understanding of the physical world. 
     
     
     
    As a girl in New York City in the 1940s, Mildred "Millie" Dresselhaus was taught that there were only three career options open to women: secretary, nurse, or teacher. In Carbon Queen, science writer Maia Weinstock describes how, with curiosity and drive, Dresselhaus defied expectations and forged a career as a pioneering scientist and engineer. Dresselhaus made highly influential discoveries about the properties of carbon and other materials and helped reshape our world in countless ways—from electronics to aviation to medicine to energy. She was also a trailblazer for women in STEM and a beloved educator, mentor, and colleague. 
     
     
      
    Her path wasn't easy. Her graduate adviser felt educating women was a waste of time. But Dresselhaus persisted, finding mentors in Nobel Prize–winning physicists Rosalyn Yalow and Enrico Fermi. Eventually, Dresselhaus became one of the first female professors at MIT, where she would spend nearly six decades. Weinstock explores the basics of Dresselhaus's work in carbon nanoscience accessibly and engagingly, describing how she identified key properties of carbon forms, leading to applications that range from lighter, stronger aircraft to more energy-efficient and flexible electronics.

    A smart and sometimes counterintuitive (who cares when you go to bed?) guide that will solve readers’ sleep anxiety once and for all!  If there’s anything worse that not getting sleep, it’s lying awake with a scare-face staring at the ceiling worrying about it. Here’s Romiszewski’s—a sleep physiologist and founder of the UK’s Sleepyhead Clinics  —  promise: “This book is your guide to liberating yourself from the endless cycle of sleep anxiety and obsession. By the end, you’ll have regained control – not through perfection, but by letting go of the need to constantly manage your sleep. Sleep will start working for you, not as something to fear or fix, but as your natural ally. And best of all, it will no longer dominate your thoughts.”THINK LESS, SLEEP MORE is a sensible take on sleep with some counterintuitive twists to current accepted dogma, such as that we all need more sleep and that segmented sleep  —  aka waking up in the middle of the night  —  is a killer. It’s a health and wellness sigh-of-relief book: there are some readjustments to make, both mental and physical, but a key takeaway is that whatever you’re doing now is probably better than you think.Among other counterintuitive insights, Romiszewski reveals:--The importance of a consistent wake-time rather than a rigid bedtime--How to trust your body’s natural sleep drive and rhythms--That ‘bad’ nights neither ruin the next day, nor, necessarily, your health, and that variability is normal--That sleep isn’t fragile—it’s adaptable, resilient, and smarter than any hack you could throw at it--The myth of 8 hours--The power of lightFor an audience who found Matthew Walker’s “Why We Sleep” a bit daunting, Romiszewski’s is the sensible, seasoned, calming voice you want to think of a 3AM.
