  CHARGE - Why Does Gravity Rule?

  Humans have long been aware of the electric and magnetic forces around us, and scientific investigation showed that the two are intimately connected as electromagnetism. Lightning shows how devastating electricity can be in nature, while humans learned to exploit the flow of negatively charged electrons that make up an electric current. In the early twentieth century, the experiments of Ernest Rutherford showed that at the heart of atoms lies a positively charged nucleus. The positive charge comes from protons. Atoms are neutral because the charges of the electron and proton cancel out. 
   
   
   
  The charges of the proton and electron are opposite and equal, even though the proton is bigger. But why are they equal? This is one of the deepest unresolved puzzles of physics. Frank Close takes us on a journey into the quantum subatomic world of particles. He describes the strong and weak forces that operate alongside electromagnetism, the color and flavor charges, as well as the parallels between them, giving hints of a deeper unity. Seeking an answer to why matter is neutral brings us to fundamental forces and particles, the Standard Model, the Higgs boson, and implications of grand unification for the stability of matter. Close packs in a rich account of our current understanding and the latest ambitious experiments to probe further, and test theoretical possibilities.

  Your DNA Explained in Plain...

  You have heard that DNA is a code, that genes are inherited, that a spit test can tell you where your ancestors came from. But if someone asked you to explain what a gene actually does, you would probably change the subject.
  
  This is the guided tour that fixes that. Every cell in your body holds a library of three billion letters, and once you can see the shelves, the copy clerks, the proofreaders and the inherited notes scribbled in the margins, the rest falls into place. You will follow the four-letter alphabet up to working proteins, see why a single typo can change a life, learn what epigenetics really means, and understand exactly which shelves a consumer DNA test opens and which it never touches. Each chapter is anchored in an everyday analogy and ends with one fact you will want to repeat out loud.
  
  By the end you will read a genetics headline and know what it is saying. Press play, and start at the front desk.

  The Shortest History of AI - The...

  Since Alan Turing first posed the question "Can machines think?" artificial intelligence has evolved from a speculative idea to a transformative force. The Shortest History of AI traces this evolution, from Ada Lovelace's visionary work to IBM's groundbreaking defeat of the chess world champion and the revolutionary emergence of ChatGPT. It also explores AI's cultural journey, touching on classics such as Frankenstein, A Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, and 2001: A Space Odyssey. 
   
  Revealing how many "overnight" successes were decades in the making, this accessible and illuminating book helps us to understand how AI functions by explaining the six key ideas that animate it: it searches for answers using predetermined symbols and means-end analysis; it bases its answers on what sort of response it thinks it will get; it follows a set of rules in order to simulate human expertise; it copies the human brain by learning from experience; it uses reinforcement learning, rewarding its own successes and punishing itself for its failures; and it uses Bayes' theorem to calculate the probability of a cause based on its effect. 
   
  Fast-paced and rich with facts, The Shortest History of AI equips listeners to understand where we've been—and where we're headed.
