Sinopsis

Often overshadowed by narratives of conquest, the Ottoman Empire significantly contributed to scientific knowledge. Ottoman Science reveals these accomplishments, focusing on medicine, engineering, and astronomical studies. Ottoman scholars didn't just receive knowledge; they innovated, building upon Greek, Persian, and Indian traditions. For instance, Ottoman hospitals were advanced for their time, incorporating practices that reflected a deep understanding of medicine.

 
The book challenges Eurocentric views of scientific progress by highlighting the Ottoman Empire's active role in global knowledge exchange. It explores how libraries and observatories fostered innovation. The book progresses through medicine, engineering, and astronomical studies, showcasing the empire's lasting impact. Delving into original manuscripts and architectural plans, this book adopts a formal, academic tone to ensure clarity.
Disponible desde: 20/03/2025.

    Do you believe in God? If so, which one? Is it the Christian all-knowing, all-seeing father of Jesus? Is it Allah of Islam? The many deities of Hinduism? Or are you one of those that believes in God but not religion? 
     
    Whichever box you tick on the form, you have some kind of belief. Even if you're an atheist, you believe there is no God. That we all came from nothing. But there are massive questions that mankind has asked from the very beginning. Where did everything come from? Is there a meaning to our lives? Are we alone in the universe? 
     
    These questions and many more have fascinated mankind from the moment he could reason. And eventually we created a thing called science to discover the answers. To many, science eradicated the need for God to answer all the questions we could not answer. Delete faith and replace with scientific facts. The problem is that science has not yet answered all of the questions and many believe it never will. Or has it? 
     
    Today we are beginning to understand the complexities and even strangeness of the sub-atomic world. This new quantum realm is opening up new avenues of research and new inventions. All things are made of particles. The entire universe is formed from them. And now we are creating quantum computers that think at the quantum level. What answers will the union of artificial intelligence and this amazing quantum world bring? Will we now have the answers to the ultimate questions? 
     
    This is the story of the new scientific world of particle physics and the amazing unseen world it reveals.

    Before Darwin, before Audubon, there was Maria Sibylla Merian. 
    An artist turned naturalist, Merian was born just 16 years after Galileo proclaimed that the Earth orbited the sun. But at the age of 50, she sailed from Europe to South America on a solo scientific expedition to study insect metamorphosis—an unheard-of journey for any naturalist at that time, much less a woman. 
    When she returned, she produced a book that secured her reputation, only to have it savaged in the 19th century by scientists who disdained the work of “amateurs.” 
    Chrysalis takes us from golden age Amsterdam to the Surinam tropics to modern laboratories where Merian’s insights fuel a new branch of biology. The New Yorker called it a "spellbinding biography." In it, Kim Todd brings to life a 17th century woman whose boldness and vision would still be exceptional today.
