Sinopsis

Light, the cornerstone of vision and color, is explored in "Light Facts", which reveals the science governing its behavior and interactions. Light exhibits a fascinating wave-particle duality, acting as both a wave and a stream of particles called photons. This book sheds light (pun intended!) on how understanding light is fundamental, underpinning technologies like lasers and fiber optics, and informing our understanding of the universe.

 
The book journeys from historical theories to modern quantum electrodynamics, requiring no prior physics knowledge. It highlights intriguing aspects such as diffraction, interference, and the photoelectric effect, demonstrating light's wave-like and particle-like behaviors. Furthermore, it explores how light interacts with matter, giving rise to color and optical properties, and culminates in an analysis of lasers and vision, connecting physics with biology and chemistry. "Light Facts" stands out by balancing wave and particle perspectives, using experimental evidence and real-world applications.

 
Progressing through three sections, it first introduces wave-particle duality, then examines light's interaction with matter, and finally explores human perception of light and color. The approach makes complex concepts accessible to a broad audience, including students, amateur astronomers, and anyone curious about the physical world.

    A spellbinding exploration of the human capacity to imagine the future  
     
    Our ability to think about the future is one of the most powerful tools at our disposal. In The Invention of Tomorrow, cognitive scientists Thomas Suddendorf, Jonathan Redshaw, and Adam Bulley argue that its emergence transformed humans from unremarkable primates to creatures that hold the destiny of the planet in their hands.  
     
    Drawing on their own cutting-edge research, the authors break down the science of foresight, showing us where it comes from, how it works, and how it made our world. Journeying through biology, psychology, history, and culture, they show that thinking ahead is at the heart of human nature—even if we often get it terribly wrong. Incisive and expansive, The Invention of Tomorrow offers a fresh perspective on the human tale that shows how our species clawed its way to control the future.

    Features a new "where are they now" section, with updates about lives of expedition's original climbers and updated resources based on the "Anti-Racism in the Outdoors" (ARITO) guide. 
     
     
     
    Outdoor journalist James Edward Mills's book, The Adventure Gap, is a groundbreaking volume that is equal parts adventure story, history, and inspiration as it chronicles the first American all-Black summit attempt on Denali in 2013. Mills uses this momentous expedition as a jumping-off point to explore diversity in the outdoors, from Mathew Henson who stood at the North Pole in 1909 to contemporary adventurers such as polar explorer Barbara Hillary and rock climber Kai Lightner. 
     
     
     
    This tenth anniversary edition once again shares the compelling events that unfolded during Expedition Denali's summit bid. But it also provides fresh context: A new thought-provoking afterword by Mills examines what has evolved in and around the outdoor community since that effort. He highlights progress and inspiring stories, such as Full Circle Everest, an expedition led by Phillip Henderson that put an all-Black team on top of the world's highest peak. And he points to places where we can and should all strive for higher achievement. The Adventure Gap has become an essential text in outdoor education and inspiration—a story of our times, now more relevant than ever.
