Beschreibung

"The Speed Limit" delves into the fundamental role of speed, particularly the speed of light, in shaping our understanding of the universe, human transportation, and technological innovation. It examines how this universal constant impacts wave propagation and explores the barriers and theoretical possibilities related to exceeding current speed limitations. The book highlights how the pursuit of surpassing perceived speed limits drives scientific and technological advancement. The book uniquely combines historical context, cutting-edge scientific research, and engineering challenges to present a holistic view of speed. Starting with fundamental concepts like velocity and wave behavior, the book progresses to explore the challenges of high-speed travel, including propulsion systems and the effects of relativistic speeds. It then delves into theoretical physics, examining concepts like wormholes and warp drives. By reframing limitations as opportunities for innovation, "The Speed Limit" emphasizes the value of theoretical exploration in practical applications such as communication networks and faster transportation. It's designed to be accessible to a broad audience interested in science, space exploration, and the potential for future technological breakthroughs.

    In May 2018 NASA called a press conference to announce the successful test-run of their tiny nuclear reactor KRUSTY (Kilopower Reactor Using Stirling Technology). This revolutionary technology, which runs on heat alone, may have profound consequences for the future of mankind, enabling us to maintain permanent bases on the Moon, on Mars, and other planets, and eventually power a starship. On earth too it could have enormous benefits as a new way to generate power at a time when climate change is threatening our very existence. 
     
     
     
    This book is the amazing story behind this invention, which began with Robert Stirling's original designs for a heat exchange engine in 1816. An invention truly ahead of its time, the practical application of the Stirling Engine has taxed the minds of scientists and inventors for almost 200 years. Only now is it possible for its full potential to be realized. Phillip Hills weaves science and history together to tell the story of one of the most exciting scientific developments the world has ever seen.

    Habit Forming - Drug Addiction...

    Habitual drug use in the United States is at least as old as the nation itself. Habit Forming traces the history of unregulated drug use and dependency before 1914, when the Harrison Narcotic Tax Act limited sales of opiates and cocaine under US law. Many Americans used opiates and other drugs medically and became addicted. Some tried Hasheesh Candy, injected morphine, or visited opium dens, but neither use nor addiction was linked to crime, due to the dearth of restrictive laws. After the Civil War, American presses published extensively about domestic addiction. Later in the nineteenth century, many used cocaine and heroin as medicine. As addiction became a major public health issue, commentators typically sympathized with white, middle-class drug users, while criticizing such use by poor or working-class people and people of color. When habituation was associated with middle-class morphine users, few advocated for restricted drug access. By the 1910s, as use was increasingly associated with poor young men, support for regulations increased. In outlawing users' access to habit-forming drugs at the national level, a public health problem became a larger legal and social problem, one with an enduring influence on American drug laws and their enforcement.

    Medieval Medicine - Practices...

    Medieval medicine was deeply rooted in the knowledge and traditions inherited from antiquity. The healing practices of this era were shaped by ancient medical texts, religious doctrine, and the widespread belief in the humoral theory. These influences created a medical system that blended scientific understanding with spiritual and superstitious elements, guiding both diagnosis and treatment. 
    Ancient medical texts played a crucial role in shaping medieval medical thought. The works of Greek and Roman physicians, particularly Hippocrates and Galen, were preserved and studied throughout the Middle Ages. Their teachings on anatomy, physiology, and disease informed medical practice for centuries. Galen’s theories, in particular, dominated medieval medicine, as they were seen as authoritative explanations of bodily functions and imbalances. Additionally, medical knowledge from the Islamic world, especially from scholars such as Avicenna and Al-Razi, was translated into Latin and integrated into European medical education. These texts provided new insights and expanded the understanding of disease and treatment methods. 
    Religion was a dominant force in medieval medical practices. The Christian Church played a central role in both medical care and the dissemination of medical knowledge. Many hospitals were founded and operated by religious institutions, and healing was often associated with divine intervention. Monks and priests studied medical texts, offering treatments based on both practical remedies and spiritual practices. Prayers, relics, and pilgrimages to sacred sites were commonly sought as cures for illnesses. Saints were believed to have healing powers, and their relics were used in healing rituals. Despite the reliance on faith-based healing, religious institutions also preserved and transmitted valuable medical knowledge, ensuring that ancient texts survived and continued to influence medieval medical practices.

    Time is a fascinating subject and one which affects our lives in many ways.  
    This book covers a lot of aspects of the subject. 
    First, how did measurements of time like seconds, minutes, hours, and years develop? 
    Next, what is the history of timekeeping mechanisms from ancient water clocks, to mechanical mechanisms, atomic clocks, and much more. 
    Lastly, what are some of the stranger aspects or anomalies of time such as premonitions, how time and space work, and possible time travel stories. 
    And philosophical questions like: Does the future already exist? 
    I wanted this book to be a comprehensive volume on time and so included lots of different stories and understandings about time which indicate we may not fully understand it yet.
