  Matter - The Magnificent Illusion

  Guido Tonelli

  • 0

  What are we made up of? What holds material bodies together? Is there a difference between terrestrial matter and celestial matter? When Democritus stated that we are made up of atoms, few people believed him. Not until Galileo and Newton in the seventeenth century did people take the idea seriously, and it was another four hundred years before we could reconstruct the elementary components of matter. 
   
   
   
  Everything around us has very particular properties. These properties, which seem quite normal to us, are in fact very special, because the universe, whose evolution began almost fourteen billion years ago, is today a very cold environment. In this book, Guido Tonelli explains how elementary particles, which make up matter, combine into bizarre shapes to form correlated quantum states, primordial soups of quarks and gluons, or massive neutron stars. New questions that have emerged from the most recent research are answered: in what sense is the vacuum a material state? Why can space-time also vibrate and oscillate? Can elementary grains of space and time exist? What forms does matter assume inside large black holes? 
   
   
   
  In clear and lively prose, Tonelli takes listeners on an exhilarating journey into the latest discoveries of contemporary science, enabling them to see the universe, and themselves, in a new light.

  The Shocking Truth about Genetic...

  Genetic testing has become one of the most talked-about advancements in modern science, promising insights into health, ancestry, and even future risks for inherited conditions. With the rise of at-home DNA testing kits and their widespread availability, more people than ever are exploring what their genetic code can reveal. But behind the promise of knowledge lies a complex web of ethical concerns, privacy risks, and limitations that many consumers are unaware of. While genetic testing can be a powerful tool for medical advancements and personalized healthcare, it also raises important questions about how this information is used, who has access to it, and what unintended consequences may arise.  
  At its core, genetic testing analyzes DNA to identify mutations, traits, or predispositions that can impact a person’s health and well-being. Initially developed for medical use, these tests have expanded beyond hospitals and research labs, becoming a booming industry catering to consumers who want to know more about their ancestry or potential health risks. Companies market these tests as a way to take control of one’s future, offering data on everything from nutrition and fitness compatibility to risks for serious diseases. However, the accuracy and reliability of these consumer-grade tests vary, and their results can sometimes lead to unnecessary panic or false reassurance. Furthermore, genetic testing is not always as straightforward as it seems—genes interact in complex ways, and not all findings have clear implications for an individual’s health.  
  One of the most pressing concerns surrounding genetic testing is privacy. The information encoded in DNA is highly personal, yet many people provide their genetic data to testing companies without fully understanding how it may be stored, shared, or sold.
