Quantum Time : Across...

Ecnal Ver

What If Time Is Not What We Think?
What if everything you have been taught about time is wrong? What if time does not move in one steady line, the same for everyone, but instead bends, shifts, or even disappears depending on where you are in the universe? Quantum Time takes you on a fascinating journey into the strange world of quantum physics to explore one of the greatest mysteries of existence: time itself.
Time in Daily Life vs. the Quantum World
In everyday life, time feels simple. Seconds tick forward. Clocks keep us on schedule. We grow older. But in the quantum world, none of this is guaranteed. At the smallest scale of reality, time may not even exist the way we think it does. Instead, it may be something that only appears when particles interact, a fragile construct that changes depending on the universe or multiverse you are in.
A Radical New View of Time
This audiobook challenges the traditional idea that time is an absolute force. Instead, it presents a bold new view. Time may be local, appearing only through the behavior and arrangement of particles. That means different regions of the cosmos or even parallel universes could each experience time in completely different ways. In some cases, time may even loop, pause, or move backward.
Where Physics Meets Consciousness
From black holes to quantum entanglement, Quantum Time explores how the deepest mysteries of physics connect with human consciousness and reality. It asks whether the mind itself may play a role in shaping how we experience past, present, and future.
An Invitation to Rethink Reality
If you are fascinated by science, philosophy, or metaphysics, Quantum Time offers a thought-provoking journey that will forever change the way you see the ticking clock.

The Effluent Society

Norman Thelwell

Artist Norman Thelwell is best known for his cartoons depicting plump, petulant ponies and their young riders, but The Effluent Society shows another aspect of his work and character. Thelwell was passionate about the countryside and nature. During his life he became increasingly concerned about the impact of development, pollution and society's treatment of the environment. When The Effluent Society was first published in 1971, his concerns were way ahead of their time. Today, environmental and conservation issues are in the mainstream and have become a global priority.

Although the cartoons focus on a serious topic there is no mistaking Thelwell's inimitable style. He used his talent and humour to convey a powerful message: the need to protect the environment. He also takes a wry look at modern life and so-called progress. Thelwell admitted that out of all his books, The Effluent Society was the one that gave him the greatest 'personal satisfaction' and, as such, the re-issue of this title is a fitting tribute to the artist.

Power and Prediction - The...

Joshua Gans, Ajay Agrawal, Avi...

In their bestselling first book, Prediction Machines, eminent economists Ajay Agrawal, Joshua Gans, and Avi Goldfarb explained the simple yet game-changing economics of AI. Now, in Power and Prediction, they go deeper, examining the most basic unit of analysis: the decision. The authors explain that the two key decision-making ingredients are prediction and judgment, and we perform both together in our minds, often without realizing it. The rise of AI is shifting prediction from humans to machines, relieving people from this cognitive load while increasing the speed and accuracy of decisions. 
 
 
 
This sets the stage for a flourishing of new decisions and has profound implications for system-level innovation. Redesigning systems of interdependent decisions takes time, but when these new systems emerge, they can be disruptive on a global scale. Decision-making confers power. In industry, power confers profits; in society, power confers control. This process will have winners and losers, and the authors show how businesses can leverage opportunities, as well as protect their positions. 
 
 
 
Filled with illuminating insights, rich examples, and practical advice, Power and Prediction is the must-listen guide for any business leader or policymaker on how to make the coming AI disruptions work for you rather than against you.
