Synopsis

Floating Trains explores the revolutionary potential of hover technology, specifically magnetic levitation (Maglev), in transforming rail transportation. It delves into the science and engineering behind trains that float above the tracks, eliminating friction and enabling unprecedented speeds.

 
Examining both Electromagnetic Suspension (EMS) and Electrodynamic Suspension (EDS) systems, the book highlights how Maglev could offer faster, more energy-efficient, and sustainable alternatives to conventional rail. One intriguing fact is that Maglev trains can reach speeds exceeding 300 mph, significantly reducing travel times.

 
The book progresses from a historical overview of rail technology to a detailed examination of Maglev principles, engineering challenges, and existing systems like the Shanghai Transrapid. It analyzes the economic feasibility and potential social impacts of widespread Maglev adoption, including the high initial costs and environmental considerations.

 
By bridging theoretical physics with practical engineering and economic realities, Floating Trains offers a comprehensive understanding of this cutting-edge transportation technology and its potential to reshape the future of high-speed rail.

    This text revolves around a new and unusual view on the most fundamental puzzle of physics. It focusses on the key aspect that makes the role of the time dimension fundamentally different: causality. The implicit and intuitive way by which causality is usually taken for granted is just made explicit and less self-evident, shedding a new light on the gravity-quantum conflict. The case is made that gravity is a necessary condition for a causal universe. But upon turning to the "pure" unitary quantum physics explaining the nature of matter one is dealing with the strictly a-causal time expressed through the thermal quantum field theory machinery. When this a-causal microscopic and causal macroscopic world meet, one encounters the wavefunction collapse, that itself may be rooted in the quantum-gravity conflict. Modern ideas are discussed resting on eigenstate thermalization showing how this may lie eventually at the origin of irreversible thermodynamics. The case is anchored in the sophisticated modern mathematical machinery of both general relativity and quantum physics which is normally barely disseminated beyond the theoretical physics floors. 
     
     
     
    The book is unique in the regard that the consequences of this machinery are explained in an original, descriptive language conveying the conceptual consequences while avoiding mathematical technicalities.

    Kargil - From Surprise To Victory

    In February 1999, Pakistani Army personnel, disguised as jihadi militants, infiltrated into mountainous Kargil and occupied key vantage points. Their intrusion triggered a limited war between the world's newest nuclear states. It was a bitter battle, and one that threw up important lessons for India's defence preparedness, as also its responses to conflicts such as this. This incisive book by General V.P. Malik, former Chief of the Army Staff, analyses the reasoning behind the Pakistani Army's moves and tactics and reviews crucial issues such as the extent of intelligence and surveillance failure on the Indian side and the measures necessary to redress these failings. Away from questions of strategy and tactics, however, Kargil is also a reminder of the unalloyed heroism that was on display during those grim weeks, heroism that become a benchmark for valour.
