Sinopse

Theory vs Experiment explores the dynamic interplay between theoretical frameworks and experimental findings in driving scientific progress. Rather than positioning them as opposing forces, the book argues that their mutual challenge, refinement, and validation are essential for advancing knowledge. It’s intriguing to learn that the prediction and subsequent discovery of the Higgs boson exemplifies theory motivating experiment. Conversely, unexpected experimental results, such as the Michelson-Morley experiment, have prompted significant theoretical revisions. 

 
The book begins by establishing key definitions and historical context, then examines specific case studies across physics, chemistry, and biology. It emphasizes the importance of acknowledging inherent limitations and biases within both theoretical and experimental designs. This approach offers a balanced perspective on the scientific method and the nature of scientific truth. The book uniquely adopts a nuanced viewpoint, acknowledging the crucial roles of both theory and experiment while remaining accessible to a broad audience interested in science and philosophy. 

 
The book culminates in a discussion of the philosophical implications of this relationship, addressing the nature of scientific truth and the role of human interpretation. By drawing on historical sources, comparative analysis, and meta-analysis, Theory vs Experiment provides a comprehensive and insightful examination of how theoretical breakthroughs and experimental findings shape our understanding of the universe, impacting STEM fields and beyond.

    From the chief medical correspondent of ABC News, an eloquent, heartbreaking, yet hopeful memoir of surviving the suicide of a loved one, examining this dangerous epidemic and offering first-hand knowledge and advice to help family and friends find peace. 
     
    Jennifer Ashton, M.D., has witnessed firsthand the impact of a loved one’s suicide. When her ex-husband killed himself soon after their divorce, her world—and that of her children—was shattered. Though she held a very public position with one of the world’s largest media companies, she was hesitant to speak about the personal trauma that she and her family experienced following his death. A woman who addresses the public regularly on intimate health topics, she was uncertain of revealing her devastating loss—the most painful thing she’d ever experienced. But with the high-profile suicides of Kate Spade and Anthony Bourdain, Dr. Ashton recognized the importance of talking about her experience and the power of giving voice to her grief. She shared her story with her Good Morning America family on air—an honest, heartbreaking revelation that provided comfort and solace to others, like her and her family, who have been left behind.  
    In Life After Suicide, she opens up completely for the first time, hoping that her experience and words can inspire those faced with the unthinkable to persevere. Part memoir and part comforting guide that incorporates the latest insights from researchers and health professionals, Life After Suicide is both a call to arms against this dangerous, devastating epidemic, and an affecting story of personal grief and loss. In addition, Dr. Ashton includes stories from others who have survived the death of a loved one by their own hand, showing how they survived the unthinkable and demonstrating the vital roles that conversation and community play in recovering from the suicide of a loved one. The end result is a raw and revealing exploration of a subject that’s been taboo for far too long, providing support, information, and comfort for those attempting to make sense of their loss and find a way to heal.

  • FBI’s Most Controversial Operations The: The History of the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s Notorious Activities in the 20th Century - cover

    FBI’s Most Controversial...

    No single figure in 20th century American history inspires such opposing opinions as J. Edgar Hoover, the iconic first Director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation. In his time, he was arguably the most powerful non-elected figure in the federal government. Serving under eight presidents (and outliving two of them), he remains the longest-serving head of a major government office, and Hoover died as he began: a civil servant, having been appointed by the Attorney General and serving at the pleasure of the president. That said, no civil servant had ever accrued to themselves the power and public attention that Hoover did. 
    To many Americans in mid-20th century, Hoover seemed like a real American hero. In a country suffering from the Great Depression and the crime wave of the early 1930s, Hoover was the symbol of law and order as his “G-Men” used the newest in scientific crime solving methods to bring gangsters like John Dillinger, Pretty Boy Floyd, and Baby Face Nelson to justice. During World War II, the FBI helped protect a country at war from German and Japanese spies and saboteurs. In the 1950s, at the dawn of the Cold War, Americans saw the FBI leading the charge against Soviet spies and domestic communists who seemed to be undermining the institutions of the country. Many boys across the country wanted to be G-Men, helping Mr. Hoover ferret out anyone who would harm the United States. 
    Few things have colored Hoover’s reputation quite like COINTELPRO, which has become the FBI’s most notorious operation, one that still has lasting ramifications. From 1956-1971, the FBI waged a secret war in America through a series of projects against groups believed to be potentially subversive, including various people and organizations involved in women’s rights, civil rights, Native American rights, anti-war groups, and even groups that supported animal rights.
