Beschreibung

How Planets Move explores the fascinating principles governing planetary motion, revealing the elegant dance of planets through the cosmos. It begins with a historical overview, contrasting geocentric and heliocentric models, before diving into the groundbreaking contributions of astronomers like Kepler and Newton. The book highlights how seemingly complex orbits are governed by fundamental physical laws, emphasizing that Newton's laws offer a framework for predicting celestial movements.

 
The book then presents Kepler's laws, explaining the elliptical nature of orbits, the concept of equal areas in equal times, and the relationship between orbital period and semi-major axis. Transitioning to Newton's law of universal gravitation, it demonstrates how this law mathematically explains Kepler's empirical observations. It also discusses perturbations, revealing how gravitational interactions cause deviations from perfect orbits.

 
Finally, the book explores real-world applications, such as calculating orbital parameters for spacecraft and understanding exoplanetary systems. This book uniquely bridges physics with mathematics and engineering, revealing the interconnectedness of scientific disciplines. It adopts a systematic approach, guiding readers through concepts with clarity, making it valuable for students, amateur astronomers, and anyone curious about the science of planetary motion and celestial mechanics.

    The Lost Trees of Willow Avenue...

    In 2023, author and activist Mike Tidwell decided to keep a record for a full year of the growing impacts of climate change on his one urban block right on the border with Washington, DC. Tidwell's story depicts the neighborhood's battle to save the trees and combat climate change: The midwife who builds a geothermal energy system, the Congressman who battles cancer and climate change, and the Chinese-American climate scientist who wants to bury billions of the world's dying trees to store their carbon and help stabilize the atmosphere. 
     
     
     
    The story goes beyond ailing trees as Tidwell chronicles people on his block coping with Lyme disease, a church with solar panels and floodwater, and young people anguishing over whether to have kids—all in the same neighborhood and all against the backdrop of 2023's record global temperatures and raging wildfires and hurricanes. Then there's Tidwell himself who explores the ethical and scientific questions surrounding the idea of "geoengineering" as a way to save the world's trees by reflecting sunlight away from the planet. 
     
     
     
    No book has told the story of climate change this way: hyper-local, full of surprises, full of true stories of life and death in one neighborhood. The Lost Trees of Willow Avenue is a harrowing and hopeful proxy for every street in America and every place on Earth.

    Urban growth and development have been central to human progress for centuries, shaping the landscape, economies, and cultures of societies around the world. As the global population continues to urbanize, cities are experiencing rapid expansion and transformation. This urbanization process, which involves the migration of people from rural to urban areas, is driven by a combination of economic, social, and political factors. Understanding the forces behind urban growth is essential for urban planners, policymakers, and scholars who aim to navigate the challenges and opportunities that come with it. 
    The rise of cities is closely linked to the development of agriculture, trade, and industry. In early history, cities were established as centers of commerce and governance, offering opportunities for social, political, and economic advancement. With the Industrial Revolution, cities became hubs of production, attracting large numbers of people seeking employment and better living conditions. This period marked a significant shift from agrarian economies to industrial economies, fueling the growth of urban centers across Europe and North America. 
    In the modern era, urbanization has reached unprecedented levels, with more than half of the world’s population now residing in urban areas. The growth of cities is not limited to developed countries but is also occurring rapidly in the developing world, particularly in regions of Asia, Africa, and Latin America. This has led to the expansion of megacities—urban areas with populations exceeding 10 million people—while smaller cities also experience considerable growth. The factors driving this global urbanization include the pursuit of better economic opportunities, access to education and healthcare, and the promise of improved living standards.

    This inspiring meditation on the intersection of science, nature, and spirit shows readers how to deepen their connection to the natural world.In Rooted, cutting-edge science supports a truth that poets, artists, mystics, and earth-based cultures across the world have proclaimed over millennia: life on this planet is radically interconnected. Our bodies, thoughts, minds, and spirits are affected by the whole of nature, and they affect this whole in return. In this time of crisis, how can we best live upon our imperiled, beloved earth?Award-winning writer Lyanda Lynn Haupt’s highly personal new book is a brilliant invitation to live with the earth in both simple and profound ways—from walking barefoot in the woods and reimagining our relationship with animals and trees, to examining the very language we use to describe and think about nature. She invokes rootedness as a way of being in concert with the wilderness—and wildness—that sustains humans and all of life.In the tradition of Rachel Carson, Elizabeth Kolbert, and Mary Oliver, Haupt writes with urgency and grace, reminding us that at the crossroads of science, nature, and spirit we find true hope. Each chapter provides tools for bringing our unique gifts to the fore and transforming our sense of belonging within the magic and wonder of the natural world.

    Future Morality

    The world is changing so fast that it's hard to know how to think about what we ought to do. We barely have time to reflect on how scientific advances will affect our lives before they're upon us. New kinds of dilemma are springing up. Can robots be held responsible for their actions? Will artificial intelligence be able to predict criminal activity? Is the future gender-fluid? Should we strive to become post-human? Should we use drugs to improve our intimate relationships—or to reduce crime? Our intuitions about questions like these are often both weak and confused. 
     
     
     
    David Edmonds has put together a philosophical task force to get to grips with these challenges. Twenty-nine philosophers present provocative and engaging pieces about aspects of life today, and life tomorrow—birth and death, health and medicine, brain and body, personal relationships, wrongdoing and justice, the internet, animals, and the environment. The future won't look the same when you've finished this book.
