  Rather than trying to bend your mind around all the vast and confounding details of things such as gravitational waves, electricity, and black holes, wouldn't it be easier to understand just one central concept from which everything else follows? 
   
   
   
  If you've ever found yourself fascinated by the idea of quantum computing but feel a little overwhelmed by the mind-blowing subject of quantum mechanics or concerned by climate change but haven't been able to get to grips with the details of global warming, this book is for you. Let's take atoms, for example—what on earth are they? Well, if you start to think of them less like things you can't see with complex little nuclei and more like the alphabet of nature, they might start to feel a little more understandable. Or gravitational waves—why are they creating so much excitement? Think of them as the voice of space, vibrations on the drumskin of space-time—before delving into all their complexities. 
   
   
   
  Chown explains the one thing you need to know to understand some of the most important scientific ideas of our time. Packed full of astounding facts, scientific history, and the entertaining personalities at the heart of the most pivotal discoveries about the workings of our universe, this is an accessible guide to all the tricky stuff you've always wanted to understand more about.

  The Sceptical Chymist

  "The Sceptical Chymist" is a book written by Robert Boyle, a renowned 17th-century natural philosopher, in 1661. In this book, Boyle challenges the conventional beliefs about chemistry and the nature of matter that were prevalent during his time. 
  Boyle argues that the traditional theories of alchemy and Aristotelian philosophy are flawed and insufficient in explaining the nature of matter. He proposes a new approach to chemistry that emphasizes empirical observation, experimentation, and the use of the scientific method. Boyle's work laid the foundation for modern chemistry by introducing the concept of elements and the notion that chemical reactions occur due to the rearrangement of atoms. 
  Moreover, "The Sceptical Chymist" also contains philosophical arguments about the nature of science and the role of experimentation in scientific inquiry. Boyle critiques the prevailing notion that science should be based solely on deductive reasoning and argues that empirical evidence should be given greater weight in scientific investigations. 
  Overall, "The Sceptical Chymist" is a landmark work in the history of science, as it helped to establish chemistry as a scientific discipline and paved the way for the development of modern scientific methods

  Northeaster - A Story of Courage...

  For many, the past few years have been defined by climate disaster. Stories about once-in-a-lifetime hurricanes, floods, fires, droughts, and even snowstorms are now commonplace. But dramatic weather events are not new and Northeaster, Cathie Pelletier's breathtaking account of the 1952 snowstorm that blanketed New England, offers a valuable reminder about nature's capacity for destruction as well as insight into the human instinct for preservation. 
   
   
   
  Northeaster weaves together a rich cast of characters whose lives were uprooted and endangered by the storm. Housewives and lobstermen, loggers and soldiers were all trapped as snow piled in drifts twenty feet high. The storm smothered hundreds of travelers in their cars, covered entire towns, and broke ships in half. In the midst of the blizzard's chaos, there were remarkable acts of heroism and courageous generosities. Doctors braved the storm to help deliver babies. Ordinary people kept their wits while buried in their cars, and others made their way out of forests to find kindhearted strangers willing to take them in. 
   
   
   
  It's likely that none of us know how we would handle a confrontation with a blizzard or other natural disaster. But Northeaster shows that we have it inside to fight for survival in some of the harshest conditions that nature has to offer.
