  Mysteries of the Universe -...

  The universe is vast beyond comprehension, stretching far beyond the limits of our understanding. It encompasses everything we know, from the smallest particles to the largest galaxies. Our solar system is just a tiny speck in the grand expanse of space, and Earth itself is but a small dot in the grand scheme of things. This unimaginable scale raises profound questions: How did the universe come to be? What forces shape its destiny? And what is the true nature of the cosmos that surrounds us? 
  The history of cosmology dates back thousands of years. Ancient civilizations looked up at the night sky and began to ponder the movements of the stars. Early astronomers devised rudimentary models of the universe, many of which placed Earth at its center. These early models, though flawed, laid the foundation for future discoveries. The development of telescopes in the 17th century, most notably by Galileo, brought a revolution in how we view the universe. With the advent of modern science, these early theories were replaced by more accurate models, culminating in our current understanding of the cosmos. 
  One of the most significant breakthroughs in the history of cosmology was the discovery that the universe is expanding. In the early 20th century, astronomer Edwin Hubble observed that galaxies were moving away from us, leading to the realization that the universe itself was stretching outward. This discovery, known as Hubble’s Law, provided key evidence for the Big Bang theory, which suggests that the universe began as a singularity and has been expanding ever since. The Big Bang theory remains the most widely accepted explanation for the origin of the universe.

  This bundle has 2 titles, which will all help you become a better marketer. The titles are: 
  Affiliate Marketing - Affiliate marketing is a performance-based marketing strategy in which businesses reward individuals, known as affiliates, for driving traffic or sales to their products or services. This model benefits both the merchant and the affiliate: the merchant gains exposure and potential sales, while the affiliate earns commissions based on their promotional efforts. Unlike traditional advertising, affiliate marketing offers affiliates the opportunity to earn income without creating their own products or services, making it an attractive and accessible business model. 
  Digital Niche Marketing - By tailoring campaigns to resonate with these unique groups, brands can foster stronger connections, drive higher engagement, and establish themselves as trusted experts within a particular domain. This approach helps brands stand out in an oversaturated digital environment, where audiences are increasingly selective about what content they engage with and trust.

  Infinity and our Unbounded...

  The concept of Infinity has been around since the ancients and it has many practical applications in mathematics like Calculus. 
  Infinity is also important in Fractals which are a graphical algorithm which is used in many computer graphics applications today and which has infinite depth. 
  It is also applicable to our Universe since the standard concept we are taught about the Big Bang as the beginning of the Universe may be wrong. 
  Modern evidence is showing us contradictions which say that we live in a Universe which is steady state and might even be infinite in size. The Universe doesn’t have a creation date we can be sure of. 
  We don’t really know if it is infinite in size but the Universe is certainly much larger and older than our best scientific instruments can measure. 
  This book is an exploration of Infinity and new understandings of our Universe which have come to light in recent decades.

  A playful and provocative exploration of queer single parenting and love, in conversation with an AI algorithm and a toddler 
   
   
   
  My Child, the Algorithm describes encounters between a single parent, a curious, verbal toddler, and a language-producing algorithm. Like a male seahorse, Hannah Silva carried a baby made from her partner's egg. But when she gave birth, her partner left, and Hannah found herself navigating life alone with her child, surviving on United Kingdom universal credit, humor, and buckets of imagination. 
   
   
   
  As she navigates friendship, dating, and life as a queer parent in London, Hannah begins cowriting with an open-source language model, a precursor to ChatGPT, feeding the algorithm language and receiving language in return. Through her interactions with her toddler and the algorithm, expressions of humor, play, and insight begin to emerge. With the help and disruption of these unreliable narrators, Hannah deconstructs her story and constructs a new one, unraveling what she has been taught to want, finding alternative ways of thinking, loving, and parenting today.
