Sinopse

Infinity Theories explores the concept of infinity across mathematics, physics, and cosmology, bridging abstract mathematical concepts with their potential physical implications. The book investigates whether infinity is merely a mathematical tool or a physical reality.

 
One intriguing aspect is the role of infinity in physical theories, such as the singularity at the center of black holes and the infinite energy densities predicted by some quantum field theories. The book delves into the debate surrounding the possibility of an infinite universe, examining its implications for concepts like the multiverse and the arrow of time.

 
The book is structured in three main sections: mathematical foundations, the role of infinity in physical theories like general relativity and quantum mechanics, and the possibility of an infinite universe. It emphasizes the distinction between mathematical abstraction and physical reality, cautioning against the uncritical application of mathematical infinities to physical phenomena. It uses data from astronomical surveys, cosmological models, and theoretical physics research.

The Spice Ports - Mapping the...

Nicholas Nugent

We may think of "globalism" as a recent development but its origins date back to the fifteenth century and beyond, when seafarers pioneered routes across the oceans with the objectives of exploration, trade, and profit. These voyages only became possible after certain technical innovations—improvements in ship design, compasses, and mapping—enabled navigation across unprecedented distances. The mariners' embarkation points were the vibrant ports of the West—Venice, Amsterdam, Lisbon—and their destinations the exotic ports of the East—Malacca, Goa, Bombay—where they tracked down the elusive spices, so much in demand by Western palates. 
 
 
 
This development of maritime communication brought benefits apart from culinary delights: the spread of ideas on art, literature, and science. But it was not necessarily beneficial for everyone concerned: colonial ambitions were often disastrous for local populations, who were frequently exploited as slave plantation labor. 
 
 
 
This wide-ranging account of a fascinating period of global history uses original maps and contemporary artists' views to tell the story of how each port developed individually while also encouraging us to consider contrasting points of view of the benefits and the damages of the maritime spice trade.
