  From the acclaimed environmentalist, a call to harness solar power and rewrite our scientific, economic, and political future. 
   
   
   
  Every eighteen hours, the world puts up a nuclear power plant's–worth of solar panels. At the same time, combustion continues to melt our poles, poison our bodies, and drive our global inequality. And it is no longer necessary: For the first time in 700,000 years, we know how to catch the sun’s rays and convert them into energy. 
   
   
   
  In Here Comes the Sun, world-renowned author Bill McKibben tells the story of our sudden spike in power from the sun and wind. McKibben traces the arrival of plentiful, inexpensive solar energy, which, if it accelerates, gives us a chance not just to limit climate change’s damage, but to reorder the world on saner and more humane grounds. Getting there means overcoming obstacles like Big Oil, but McKibben sees a chance for a new civilization: one that looks up to the sun, every day, as the star that fuels our world.

  This second edition has been revised and expanded, offering updated material and further insight into this profoundly draining condition.   
  Although I am both a medically qualified and an academic doctor, I do not purport to write this book as a trained psychiatrist or psychologist, of which I am neither. I do, however, claim to be an experienced, consultant-level, medical professional who has, in the past, suffered from panic attacks related to post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), which I developed many, many years ago now. Consequently, I am very familiar with the subject matter, have been in your shoes, and am able to view the problem from both ends of the spectrum.  The purpose of this book is to provide you, the reader, with an enhanced understanding of panic attacks and anxiety, their causes, and their main features. Additionally, it is designed to embed within you an attitude that enables you to reclaim the authority or self-control that panic and anxiety may have stripped away. Despite what you may be feeling now, always appreciate that it is neither our anxieties nor our panic that define who we really are.  
  In this book you will find an awesome weapon that will help you change the way you relate to anxiety and panic and ultimately dominate them. Having said that, the reader should keep in mind that the road to recovery may not be a straight or comfortable one. Ups and downs, twists, and turns will be part of the journey. However, rest assured that you will find your way to a life free of anxiety and panic when you achieve the attitude alteration and concept lock-in presented in this book. Know that when it comes to defeating anxiety and panic, Knowledge is Truly king

  Bright Galaxies Dark Matter and...

  We now know that the universe is mostly dark, made up of particles and forces that are undetectable even by our most powerful telescopes. The discovery of the possible existence of dark matter and dark energy signaled a Copernican-like revolution in astronomy: not only are we not the center of the universe, neither is the stuff of which we're made. Astronomer Vera Rubin (1928–2016) played a pivotal role in this discovery. By showing that some astronomical objects seem to defy gravity's grip, Rubin helped convince the scientific community of the possibility of dark matter. In Bright Galaxies, Dark Matter, and Beyond, Ashley Jean Yeager tells the story of Rubin's life and work, recounting her persistence despite early dismissals of her work and widespread sexism in science. 
   
   
   
  Yeager describes Rubin's childhood fascination with stars, her education at Vassar and Cornell, and her marriage to a fellow scientist. At first, Rubin wasn't taken seriously; she was a rarity, a woman in science, and her findings seemed almost incredible. Still, she continued her groundbreaking work, driving a scientific revolution. She received the National Medal of Science in 1993, and has since been memorialized with a ridge on Mars, an asteroid, a galaxy, and most recently, the Vera C. Rubin Observatory—the first national observatory named after a woman.
