  Matter - The Magnificent Illusion

  Guido Tonelli

  What are we made up of? What holds material bodies together? Is there a difference between terrestrial matter and celestial matter? When Democritus stated that we are made up of atoms, few people believed him. Not until Galileo and Newton in the seventeenth century did people take the idea seriously, and it was another four hundred years before we could reconstruct the elementary components of matter. 
   
   
   
  Everything around us has very particular properties. These properties, which seem quite normal to us, are in fact very special, because the universe, whose evolution began almost fourteen billion years ago, is today a very cold environment. In this book, Guido Tonelli explains how elementary particles, which make up matter, combine into bizarre shapes to form correlated quantum states, primordial soups of quarks and gluons, or massive neutron stars. New questions that have emerged from the most recent research are answered: in what sense is the vacuum a material state? Why can space-time also vibrate and oscillate? Can elementary grains of space and time exist? What forms does matter assume inside large black holes? 
   
   
   
  In clear and lively prose, Tonelli takes listeners on an exhilarating journey into the latest discoveries of contemporary science, enabling them to see the universe, and themselves, in a new light.

  City Livability - Enhancing...

  City livability refers to the quality of life experienced by individuals living in urban areas. It encompasses a wide range of factors that contribute to the overall well-being of urban residents, from physical infrastructure to social, economic, and environmental conditions. The livability of a city is shaped by its ability to provide access to essential services, promote a sense of community, ensure safety, and foster opportunities for growth and development. It is a reflection of how well a city meets the needs of its inhabitants, both in terms of their immediate surroundings and their broader quality of life. 
  At its core, livability is about the balance between convenience, comfort, and sustainability. In urban environments, where high population densities often lead to challenges such as congestion, pollution, and inequality, creating a livable city is crucial for ensuring that residents not only survive but thrive. It is not just about basic services such as healthcare, education, and transportation but also about creating spaces where people can connect, engage with their surroundings, and find opportunities for personal and professional fulfillment. 
  The concept of city livability is also deeply intertwined with urban planning and design. How a city is structured – its streets, buildings, parks, and neighborhoods – directly impacts its livability. A well-planned city can promote walkability, offer green spaces for recreation, reduce noise and air pollution, and ensure efficient access to transportation networks. Conversely, poorly designed cities may suffer from overcrowded and polluted areas, limited green spaces, and inadequate public infrastructure.

  Otter Country - An Unexpected...

  A plan formed in my mind. I would explore the places in this land that hid my grail. I would spend a whole year or longer, if that's what it took, wading through marshes, hiding between mossy rocks, paddling down rivers, and swimming in sea lochs; recording my journey through the seasons as I searched for wild otters. 
   
   
   
  Mysterious, graceful, and ever-clever, otters have captivated our imaginations, despite the fact that few people have encountered one in the wild. In Otter Country, celebrated nature writer Miriam Darlington captures the fascination she's had for these playful animals since childhood, and chronicles her immersive journey into their watery world. 
   
   
   
  Over the course of a single year, Darlington takes listeners on a winding expedition in pursuit of these elusive creatures—from her home in Devon, England, and through the wilds of Scotland, Wales, the Lake District, and the countryside of Cornwall. As she's drawn deeper into wilder habitats, trekking through changing landscapes, seasons, and weather, Darlington meets biologists, conservationists, fishing and hunting enthusiasts, and poets—enriching her understanding, admiration, and awe of the wild otter. With each encounter, she reveals the scientific, environmental, and cultural importance of this creature and the places it calls home.
