  Infinity and our Unbounded...

  The concept of Infinity has been around since the ancients and it has many practical applications in mathematics like Calculus. 
  Infinity is also important in Fractals which are a graphical algorithm which is used in many computer graphics applications today and which has infinite depth. 
  It is also applicable to our Universe since the standard concept we are taught about the Big Bang as the beginning of the Universe may be wrong. 
  Modern evidence is showing us contradictions which say that we live in a Universe which is steady state and might even be infinite in size. The Universe doesn’t have a creation date we can be sure of. 
  We don’t really know if it is infinite in size but the Universe is certainly much larger and older than our best scientific instruments can measure. 
  This book is an exploration of Infinity and new understandings of our Universe which have come to light in recent decades.

  Language Unlimited - The Science...

  All humans, but no other species, have the capacity to create and understand language. It provides structure to our thoughts, allowing us to plan, communicate, and create new ideas, without limit. Yet we have only finite experiences, and our languages have finite stores of words. Where does our linguistic creativity come from? How does the endless scope of language emerge from our limited selves?Drawing on research from neuroscience, psychology, and linguistics, David Adger takes the listener on a journey to the hidden structure behind all we say (or sign) and understand. Along the way you'll meet children who created language out of almost nothing, and find out how new languages emerge using structures found in languages spoken continents away. David Adger will show you how the more than 7000 languages in the world appear to obey the same deep scientific laws, how to invent a language that breaks these, and how our brains go crazy when we try to learn languages that just aren't possible. You'll discover why rats are better than we are at picking up certain language patterns, why apes are far worse at others, and how artificial intelligences, such as those behind Alexa and Siri, understand language in a very un-human way.

  Summary of Stephen Hawking's A Brief History of Time is about the universe, both the grand-scale universe of stars and planets, general relativity, and the tiny universe of atoms and subatomic particles, quantum mechanics. The reason the book covers both dimensions is that understanding both is the only way to understand the way the universe works as a whole. Some theories explain the workings of the grand scale of the universe and others the workings of the minute scale, but they tend to contradict one another. And, currently, there is no theory that explains both…

  The fighting on Redan Ridge in 1916 has long been overshadowed by events on each flank, namely Serre on the left and Beaumont Hamel on the right. On 1 July 1916 the sector was occupied by the 4th Division, made up of some of the veteran regular battalions, the 'Old Contemptibles', although few of the original members had survived thus far. It was mainly Territorials and' new army' men who fought here.A special feature includes little known accounts of events at the Quadrilateral on that fateful day. The November battles involve the 2nd Division and the 32nd Division and include the struggle across the mud to Beaumont trench, Frankfurt and Munich trenches. Biographical details of some of the famous men who took part, such as H H Munroe, the author 'Saki' and A A Milne, creator and author of Winnie the Pooh, are also included.

  If your child has been diagnosed with epilepsy, you may have questions regarding the condition. What causes epilepsy? How is it diagnosed? What are the available treatments? How can I help my child? It is not unusual for a parent to experience feelings of helplessness, fear, grief, or anger after a child has been diagnosed with epilepsy. Local epilepsy associations can provide you with valuable information regarding your concerns. Many associations have helpful resource materials on epilepsy and a staff committed to answering questions and providing information. Often associations offer in-service training to schools which educate others about the condition. Associations may also be able to provide you with support groups, trained professionals, or other families who are facing similar challenges. In some cases, a diagnosis of epilepsy may require little change in lifestyle. In other cases, there may be significant change for the child and the family. In either situation, learning about epilepsy can empower you and help you make informed decisions regarding medical treatment, care, or safety. Learning about epilepsy may also help to alleviate your own anxiety and allow you to focus on the needs of your child.
