    "The book that defined how the world works."
    
    In The Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy, Isaac Newton didn't just explain how things move; he provided the mathematical proof for the mechanics of the entire universe. Moving beyond the speculative theories of his predecessors, Newton used rigorous geometric proofs to establish his Three Laws of Motion. From the falling of an apple to the orbits of the planets, he demonstrated that the same physical forces apply everywhere. This masterwork transformed the study of nature from a branch of philosophy into the modern discipline of physics, forever changing our understanding of space, time, and force.
    
    The Law of Universal Gravitation: Newton's most famous contribution within these pages is the derivation of the inverse-square law of gravity. He proved that every mass in the universe attracts every other mass, providing the first coherent explanation for why the moon orbits the Earth and why the planets remain in their paths around the sun.
    
    A Triumph of Mathematical Logic: Though Newton had developed calculus (which he called "fluxions"), he wrote the Principia using classical geometric proofs to ensure his contemporaries could follow his revolutionary logic. The result is a work of staggering intellectual density that remains the gold standard for scientific inquiry.
    
    Why It Is Essential: To own the Principia is to own the spark of the Scientific Revolution. It is the bridge between the ancient world and the space age, a testament to the power of the human mind to decode the hidden laws of nature.

    'I proudly wear my badge as a Covid-19 front-line hero. I believe I was meant to be where I am during these trying times.'
    Our nurses have witnessed the pandemic first hand, compassionately caring for patients amid war-like circumstances.
    The havoc caused by the pandemic highlighted existing fault lines in the South African health system, and nurses faced shortages of staff and vital life-saving equipment. Colleagues tested positive and died. Visitors were not allowed, so nurses had to be intermediaries between patients and desperate family trying to glean information on the phone. Despite these pressures, they remained at the forefront of the fight against the deadly virus.
    This book brings together deeply personal stories of caring for patients in wards and ICU, of feeling overwhelmed, and experiencing the fear of getting infected and passing Covid on to their families. There are also moving tales of personal growth and finding renewed purpose. In Our Own Words shows the extreme resilience of nurses – even in the face of adversity. And that at the core of a 'true' nurse remains the commitment to the patient.
    'A powerful and moving account from the coalface of the Covid-19 response – this is a must read!' – Salim Abdool Karim

    Walking with Gorillas takes the reader on an incredible personal journey with Dr. Gladys, from her early days as a student in Uganda, enduring the assassination of her father during a military coup, to her veterinarian education in England to establishing the first veterinary department for the Ugandan government to founding one of the first organizations in the world that enables people to coexist with wildlife through improving the health and wellbeing of both. Her award-winning approach reduced the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on critically endangered mountain gorillas.

    Many ancient civilizations have influenced and inspired people in the 21st century, and the Greeks and Romans continue to fascinate the West today, but of all the world’s civilizations, none have intrigued people more than the Mayans, whose culture, astronomy, language, and mysterious disappearance all continue to captivate people. In the past decade especially, there has been a renewed focus on the Mayans, whose advanced calendar led many to speculate the world would end on the same date the Mayan calendar ended in 2012.  
    	For the Maya, astronomy was not a purely scientific pursuit but intimately linked to religious, mythological, and ideological elements that were of the highest importance. The celestial realm held a sacred nature, as did the many gods and goddesses that dwelt there, so for all Mesoamerican cultures, astronomy was a fundamental part of their everyday lives. Thus, astronomy was present in their calendars, religion, and even agriculture, and in close relation to astronomy, the concept of time was also an essential part of their worldview. The Maya recorded time on almost every surface they could, including lintels, cornices, panels, stelae, friezes, ceramics, and paper. This insistence on capturing dates has led many scholars to suggest the Maya were obsessed with time. 
    The Maya had some of the most advanced astronomical measurements in the world, and their work built upon thousands of years, spanning from around 2500 BCE until the the arrival of the Spanish in 1519. Thanks to their hieroglyphic writing, archaeologists have been able to learn a wealth of information about the way they lived and their complex system of beliefs.
