Synopsis

Total eclipses of the Sun are rare and dramatic—and on April 8, 2024, one will cross the US. But when exactly will it happen? In this short but richly illustrated book, prominent scientist and computation pioneer Stephen Wolfram tells the triumphant and hard-won story—spanning more than two thousand years—of how science, mathematics and computation have brought us to the point where we can now predict the time of the eclipse to within one second. Learn how the problem of eclipses brought us some of the earliest exact science, the first known computer, contributions from many of the all-time greats of mathematics and physics, and critical technology for the space program. See how all this provides a clear, modern understanding of a phenomenon that has surprised and amazed throughout human history.

    How on earth am I supposed to go on? How can I ever feel happy again? I just want to curl up in the foetal position and die. – These are the thoughts swirling within the mind of someone grappling with the aftermath of a devastating loss.  
    Emotions so real, they threaten to break you …Why?...you have suffered a trauma. 
     In "Why Me," embark on an emotional journey of a mother whose life has been shattered by an unimaginable tragedy, —the sudden and tragic death of her beloved daughter.  
    This book is a must-read for anyone. It is a testament to the human spirit in the face of adversity. You will come to understand and learn that 'you aren't going mad', and that the intensity you are feeling does not have to last forever. 
    Acquainted with the shattered pieces of the heart, she recognizes the profound heartbreak and soul-deep emptiness that loss can inflict. However, unlike our ancestors, who had no support, more and more research is being undertaken to understand why we feel the way we feel, and why we think the way we do. 
    Wendy offers empathy and understanding, as well as a roadmap that you didn't think was available. How? Understanding trauma and cultivating self-awareness are essential steps on the path to healing. 
     Part one is her story, and Part two contains the answers you need to know to the burning questions you have to navigate your life through this new reality. Wendy can't erase your pain, she'll empower you to embrace and navigate it. Through her guidance, you'll discover a pathway forward, where the intensity of suffering gradually lessens, paving the way for newfound strength and resilience and a new perspective. 
     It is a story of survival, — a story that lingers in the soul, offering solace and inspiration long after the final page is turned. 
    ‘If you trust life, it can surprise you.’ – Wendy B King

    No Country for Old Age -...

    Since the birth of their nation, Americans have acted on the belief that theirs was a land of youth, a place destined to offer a fresh start to an aging world. No Country for Old Age tells this story from the founding period to our present moment, but not without exposing its darker side: rejuvenation has often bred grand expectations that end in division and despair. 
     
     
     
    Mischa Honeck reveals how Americans of diverse backgrounds have sought not only to feel and look younger but also to breathe new life into their communities. Whether marching under the banners of science, public health, sexual liberation, physical fitness, nation-building, or world peace, these youth seekers have tended to paint their ventures in utopian colors. However, from the founders to today's Silicon Valley elites, anti-aging ventures have repeatedly magnified social inequalities, often projecting visions of society that have been unmistakably classist, racist, misogynist, and ageist. Today we are experiencing rejuvenation's Janus-faced legacy: As transhumanists rhapsodize about cyber-enhancing human bodies, ghastly pandemics, old-age poverty, and shrinking life expectancies are poised to become the new normal for many twenty-first-century Americans.
