Beschreibung

Giant Telescopes explores the incredible instruments that allow us to observe the universe, revealing how engineering and scientific principles combine to unlock cosmic mysteries. These massive telescopes aren't just tools; they are gateways to understanding fundamental physics and the formation of galaxies. The book emphasizes how the continuous pursuit of larger, more sophisticated telescopes is essential for advancing astronomical knowledge.

 
The book traces the development of telescopes, highlighting the challenges of atmospheric interference and how adaptive optics and space-based telescopes overcome these hurdles. Did you know that some giant telescopes use advanced data processing and simulation to analyze astronomical data? Or that new materials are crucial for building larger and lighter telescope mirrors? Each chapter examines specific examples like the Very Large Telescope and the James Webb Space Telescope, detailing their unique design features and key discoveries.

 
The book progresses from fundamental principles of telescope design to specific examples, and finally, to the future of telescope technology. The aim is to make complex concepts accessible to a broad audience, connecting astronomy with engineering, computer science, and materials science. Ultimately, Giant Telescopes demonstrates how these instruments are not only expanding our knowledge of the cosmos but also driving advancements in other fields.

    A smart and sometimes counterintuitive (who cares when you go to bed?) guide that will solve readers’ sleep anxiety once and for all!  If there’s anything worse that not getting sleep, it’s lying awake with a scare-face staring at the ceiling worrying about it. Here’s Romiszewski’s—a sleep physiologist and founder of the UK’s Sleepyhead Clinics  —  promise: “This book is your guide to liberating yourself from the endless cycle of sleep anxiety and obsession. By the end, you’ll have regained control – not through perfection, but by letting go of the need to constantly manage your sleep. Sleep will start working for you, not as something to fear or fix, but as your natural ally. And best of all, it will no longer dominate your thoughts.”THINK LESS, SLEEP MORE is a sensible take on sleep with some counterintuitive twists to current accepted dogma, such as that we all need more sleep and that segmented sleep  —  aka waking up in the middle of the night  —  is a killer. It’s a health and wellness permission book: there are some readjustments to make, both mental and physical, but a key takeaway is that whatever you’re doing now is probably better than you think.Among other counterintuitive insights, Romiszewski reveals:--The importance of a consistent wake-time rather than a rigid bedtime--How to trust your body’s natural sleep drive and rhythms--That ‘bad’ nights neither ruin the next day, nor your health, and that variability is normal--That sleep isn’t fragile—it’s adaptable, resilient, and smarter than any hack you could throw at it--The myth of 8 hours--The power of lightFor an audience who found Matthew Walker’s “Why We Sleep” daunting if not downright scary, Romiszewski’s is the sensible, seasoned, calming voice you want to think of a 3AM.

    Described by Jeffrey Masson as "the single best introduction to animal rights ever written, Tom Regan's EMPTY CAGES stands as an essential guide to the ongoing animal rights debate. In a style at once simple and elegant, Regan dispels the negative image of animal rights advocates as portrayed by the mass media, unmasks the fraudulent rhetoric of "humane treatment" favored by animal exploiters in both familiar and less well-documented contexts, and explains why existing laws function to legitimize institutional cruelty. In so doing, Regan invites readers to join the struggle for animal rights—one person at a time, one step at a time. Written by the leading philosophical spokesperson for animal rights, Tom Regan's shocking exposé of animal abuse makes an essential and lasting contribution to how animal rights is viewed in the United States and around the world. 
    "Tom Regan delivers a searing indictment of the way we treat animals in the world we have made for ourselves, and presents a trenchant case that animals have or should have rights in the same way that human beings have."—J. M. Coetzee, winner of the 2003 Nobel Prize for Literature 
    "Every so often a book is written that is destined to change the way people think. Tom Regan has written just such a book. EMPTY CAGES is compelling because it is logical, rational, and written in an elegantly simple style. Please buy this book, read it, and tell your friends about it. Everyone needs a copy on their bookshelf."—Jane Goodall 
    "Tom Regan's EMPTY CAGES is a powerful call for justice on one of the most urgent issues human society faces. Calmly, lucidly, he asks readers to confront the miserable conditions we have inflicted on animals, leaving us with three choices: find a flaw in the argument, work for change, or throw the book away and try to forget it. The indelible force of Regan's argument makes the third course very difficult."—Martha C. Nussbaum, University of Chicago
