    This informative guide follows a year in the life of the Northern Cardinal with evocative text and gorgeous color photography.   Author June Osborne and photographer Barbara Garland capture the beauty and intrigue of this striking songbird. They describe how cardinals stake out territory and choose mates, find a nesting site, and incubate their eggs, feed the young and prepare them for full-fledged independence.  The Cardinal also explores the special relationship that humans have with their favorite redbirds. Osborne traces the symbolic use of cardinals as state birds and athletic mascots and shows how they appear on everything from postage stamps to Christmas cards, as well as in fine art, literature, and Native American folklore.

    The Universe is a very big place and has many mysteries. Most people don't realize just how mysterious it is. Scientists are stumped by many of the conundrums which Astronomy reveals. 
      
    In this book I want to give readers a sense of the grandeur, mystery, and puzzles which the Universe poses to scientists. When you realize how incredible our Universe really is you may be surprised. 
      
    We used to think the Sun was the center of the Universe. Now we know our solar system is just one of billions. 
    Most of the matter in the Universe is also missing. 
      
    And there must be alien life somewhere—you will see the logic and discoveries about this in later chapters. 
      
    I also have interspersed some chapters which cover my beliefs in the overall consciousness of the Universe which should provide some interesting perspectives. 
    There are some amazing facts about our Universe which will also give you some food for thought. 
      
    Overall, I hope this book amazes you about what we know about the Universe today and the incredible mysteries which we are just beginning to explore.

    138 - The Quest to Find the True...

    The bestselling author of The Scientists presents “alively and accessible look at how astronomers determined the age of our universe” (Publishers Weekly, starred review).   The twentieth century gave us two great theories of physics. The general theory of relativity describes the behavior of very large things, and quantum theory the behavior of very small things. In this landmark book, John Gribbin—one of the best-known science writers of the past thirty years—presents his own version of the Holy Grail of physics, the search that has been going on for decades to find a unified “Theory of Everything” that combines these ideas into one mathematical package, a single equation that could be printed on a T-shirt, containing the answer to life, the Universe, and everything. With his inimitable mixture of science, history, and biography, Gribbin shows how—despite skepticism among many physicists—these two great theories are very compatible, and point to a deep truth about the nature of our existence. The answer lies, intriguingly, with the age of the universe: 13.8 billion years.   “Gribbin is a confident, engaging guide . . . a lovingly rendered history.”—The Wall Street Journal   “An exciting chronicle of a monumental scientific accomplishment by a scientist who participated in the measuring of the age of the universe.”—Kirkus Reviews   “A book that hits readers with unrelenting detail. And with a story as grand as this one, that’s exactly the way a good science book should have it. Nothing will be lost here, and everything—a clear understanding—will be gained.”—Astronomy   “A welcome and relatively quick read for cosmology buffs, students, and amateur astronomers.”—Booklist
