  A lively exploration of how invisibility has gone from science fiction to fact 
   
   
   
  Is it possible for something or someone to be made invisible? This question, which has intrigued authors of science fiction for over a century, has become a headline-grabbing topic of scientific research. 
   
   
   
  In this book, science writer and optical physicist Gregory J. Gbur traces the science of invisibility from its sci-fi origins in the nineteenth-century writings of authors such as H. G. Wells and Fitz James O'Brien to modern stealth technology, invisibility cloaks, and metamaterials. He explores the history of invisibility and its science and technology connections, including the discovery of the electromagnetic spectrum, the development of the atomic model, and quantum theory. He shows how invisibility has moved from fiction to reality, and he questions the hidden paths that lie ahead for researchers. 
   
   
   
  This is not only the story of invisibility but also the story of humankind's understanding of the nature of light itself, and of the many fascinating figures whose discoveries advanced this knowledge.

  Theory of Relativity -...

  The early 20th century marked a turning point in physics, as classical mechanics, which had been the foundation of scientific thought for centuries, began to show limitations in explaining certain phenomena. Isaac Newton’s laws of motion and gravitation had provided an elegant and highly successful framework for understanding the physical world, but as experimental techniques improved, inconsistencies began to emerge. The most significant of these was the behavior of light and electromagnetism, which did not conform to Newtonian mechanics. This contradiction laid the groundwork for one of the most revolutionary theories in science—Einstein’s theory of relativity. 
  At the heart of the problem was the nature of light. Classical physics assumed that waves needed a medium to propagate, much like sound waves require air or water waves need a surface. This led scientists to propose the existence of an invisible substance known as the luminiferous ether, which was thought to permeate space and serve as the medium for electromagnetic waves. However, experimental efforts to detect the ether, most notably the Michelson-Morley experiment in 1887, failed to find any evidence of its existence. This posed a major challenge to classical mechanics, as it suggested that light did not require a medium and always traveled at the same speed, regardless of the observer’s motion.

  Leading an Agile team calls for unexpected changes and typical project management tactics. You simply can't approach an Agile Project with the same mentality as you usually use. Agile teams are self-organized, self-directing, and lack a hierarchical structure that often defines project management. But even with the lack of common elements, you can be a team leader and guide your project to success. Even if you're not familiar with coding or software development, understanding the Agile manifesto, and the basics of Agile project management, you can be a valued part of the team. 
  Within this book you'll learn:The principles of Agile developmentDifferent methods to guide your team toward successHow to keep team members accountableYour role within the Agile team and how to best act as a leaderHow to address conflict and tension within your teamValuable tools to use to help your team communicate clearly and collaborate effectivelyHow to manage the events that drive Agile projects 
  Managing an Agile project can go smoothly if you use the principles and constructs of an Agile team the way they were intended. Some modern tools have made that even easier, but you'll always need to have a grip on the human element of team management as well. By expanding your knowledge of Agile, you can balance the importance of people, the usefulness of tools, and the value of the principles laid out in the Agile Manifesto.
