Sinopsis

In "The Deseado Formation of Patagonia," Frederic Brewster Loomis delves into the intricate geological features of Patagonia, presenting a comprehensive analysis of the region's stratigraphy and paleontology. Loomis employs a meticulous, scientific approach, utilizing rich descriptions and precise terminologies to capture the complexity of geological processes. His work stands out for its clarity and organization amidst the early 20th-century advancements in geology, positioning the Deseado Formation within the broader context of paleontological research and geological theory prevalent in his time. Frederic Brewster Loomis, a prominent geologist and paleontologist, was deeply influenced by the burgeoning interest in stratigraphic studies of his era. His explorations in South America sought not only to catalog the fossil record within the Deseado Formation but also to contribute to the understanding of ancient environments and their biological narratives. Loomis's background in the geological sciences and his passion for field studies motivated his extensive research, reflecting the scientific curiosity of his generation. "The Deseado Formation of Patagonia" is an essential read for those interested in geology, paleontology, and the history of Earth's evolution. Offering valuable insights into the region's geological significance, Loomis invites readers to explore the rich tapestry of Patagonia's history, making this work a vital addition to the library of both budding geologists and seasoned scientists.

    Over the centuries, we have learned to peer into what was once invisible. Imaging devices like cameras, telescopes, microscopes, and MRI machines map the world around, beyond, and within us in ways the naked eye could never see. In so doing, these technologies have transformed our understanding of our place in the universe and our conception of our own bodies―and we may be on the cusp of an even greater revolution.Daniel K. Sodickson―a physicist and biomedical imaging innovator―explores the rich history and surprising future of vision, from the evolution of eyes to emerging high-tech devices. Beginning in the early oceans, when organisms first developed sight, The Future of Seeing tells the stories of the many remarkable tools people have invented to extend our natural vision. Ranging from the tales of brilliant inventors to profiles of everyday people, this book shows how imaging has transformed the practice of medicine, reshaped the global economy, and complicated the notion of privacy. In the era of artificial intelligence, Sodickson argues, it will be reinvented even further, emulating not only our senses but also our brains. Inviting and eye-opening, The Future of Seeing is a revelatory look at what imaging teaches us about the way we see the world, each other, and ourselves.

    This book consists of 4 titles, which are the following: 
    Cosmic Inflation - Cosmic inflation is more than just a theoretical construct; it is a crucial piece of the puzzle in our understanding of the universe's origins and its subsequent evolution. At its core, the concept of cosmic inflation addresses some of the most profound questions in cosmology, such as why the universe appears so uniform on large scales, despite the randomness we might expect from the chaotic conditions of the Big Bang. Without inflation, these puzzles remain unresolved, leaving gaps in our understanding of how the universe came to be the way it is. 
    Cosmic Rays - Cosmic rays are an intriguing aspect of astrophysics, originating from various sources in the universe, such as supernovae, pulsars, and even black holes. They consist of charged particles accelerated to incredible energies, often far beyond what our most powerful particle accelerators on Earth can achieve. These particles, when they collide with the Earth's atmosphere, create secondary particles in a cascade of interactions, leading to a fascinating array of phenomena. 
    Multiverse Theory - Multiverse theory posits the existence of multiple, possibly infinite, universes that exist parallel to our own, collectively forming what is known as the "multiverse." The origins of this theory are rooted in quantum mechanics and cosmology. 
    String Theory - String theory is a theoretical framework aiming to unify all fundamental forces and particles by positing that they are vibrations of one-dimensional "strings," rather than point-like particles. These strings, in different vibrational modes, correspond to various particle types and properties.

    A David and Goliath story about Ireland’s role as prime real estate for the world’s largest tech multinationals, and the considerable impact it has had on us as individuals. 
    At the start of the millennium, the Tech giants landed on Ireland’s shores. Dublin, once one of Europe’s poorest cities, became a beacon of Silicon Valley’s promise of progress and power. As the face of the capital was remade in the image of Big Tech, Irish society embraced technology like no other. Romantic Ireland was dead and gone: social media was here to stay. 
    In this provocative account, Aoife Barry explores the human cost of Ireland’s Faustian pact with Big Tech, from the local communities uprooted by Google to the traumatised moderators squirrelled in the capital’s pockets, keeping the internet safe at a terrible price. Unsettling, insightful, and wryly funny, she paints a portrait of a country addicted to the internet, refreshing the news, refreshing Twitter, scrolling and scrolling towards a feverish future. She turns an equally honest eye on her own life online, from her humble beginnings using dial-up in her parent’s kitchen to working for Ireland’s first digital-only newsroom, and asks what we bargain in exchange for life in the metaverse. 
    Social Capital is the coming of age story of Ireland 3.0: set against the backdrop of the tech revolution, it chronicles how we collapse the boundary between physical and virtual reality, and where we might go from here. 
    Barry's new book, Social Capital, is a popular science exploration into the world of computers and information technology. It's a top pick for anyone interested in the intersection of culture, economics, and the latest developments in the tech industry. 
    For fans of Bill Gifford (Ledyard), Britney Spears (The woman in me), Dolly Alderton (Everything I Know About Love), Bono (Surrender), and Ian H. Robertson (How Confidence Works).

    A.I. or - Thinking outside the box!  Mind Control is the first Owner's Manual that will help usher in a new species of human being, a species who will respect their home planet and put it first above all other priorities.  I call him 'Homo Planetae' or Man of the Planet.  Homo Sapiens or the Wise Man is no longer viable since it is this species that has brought us to the edge of extinction and the total destruction of this planet's habitat - something no other creature in history has been so careless and greedy to do.  We did that.  An evolutionary branching off of an obsolete species and onto a new more advanced creature is now taking place right before our eyes, but 'None are so blind as those who will not see.' 
    Through your increased abilities of using your mind or 'Mind Control' as this author defines it - we still have a chance to redeem ourselves and save this planet.  But time is of the essence and is rapidly running out.  The ways in which we are mind controlled by our government and our corporations, our religions are profound yet so subtle we don't even think about it until it's too late.
