  Nuclear Physics - Principles and...

  Nuclear physics is the branch of physics that studies the atomic nucleus, its constituents, and the interactions that govern its behavior. The field explores the fundamental forces that operate within the nucleus, particularly the strong nuclear force that binds protons and neutrons together, as well as the weak nuclear force that governs radioactive decay. Understanding the structure and dynamics of the nucleus provides insights into the origin of matter and the processes that drive the universe's evolution, including stellar nucleosynthesis and the formation of elements. 
  The history of nuclear physics began with the discovery of radioactivity by Henri Becquerel in 1896, followed by the identification of the electron by J.J. Thomson in 1897. The groundbreaking work of Ernest Rutherford in the early 20th century led to the discovery of the atomic nucleus, fundamentally altering the understanding of atomic structure. Rutherford’s gold foil experiment in 1911 demonstrated that atoms consist of a small, dense nucleus surrounded by a cloud of electrons. James Chadwick’s discovery of the neutron in 1932 further clarified the composition of the nucleus and laid the foundation for modern nuclear physics. 
  Nuclear physics encompasses several key areas of study, including nuclear structure, nuclear reactions, and nuclear decay. Nuclear structure focuses on understanding how protons and neutrons are arranged within the nucleus and how the strong nuclear force governs their interactions. Quantum mechanics plays a central role in modeling the energy levels and configurations of nucleons. Nuclear reactions involve the collision of nuclei, leading to the formation of new elements or the release of energy, as observed in nuclear fission and fusion. Nuclear decay describes the spontaneous transformation of unstable nuclei into more stable configurations, often accompanied by the emission of alpha, beta, or gamma radiation.

  Toddlers hold the secrets to having more fun and living a fulfilling life. These are secrets we once knew and ones that a Harvard-trained physician can help us rediscover. 
   
  Terrible twos, temper tantrums, and grocery store meltdowns are usually the first things that come to mind when people think of toddlers. But pediatric emergency medicine physician and researcher Dr. Hasan Merali has long thought toddlers are among the best people in our society and adults could do well to learn from them.  
   
  These extraordinary youngsters can be impulsive, yes, but with this comes a remarkable ability to take risks and ask questions—two qualities that can help us enjoy life more. Toddlers act kindly toward strangers, are eager to work with others to solve problems, and demonstrate extraordinary dedication and perseverance. These are all traits that many of us aspire to have in order to improve both our personal and professional lives. 
   
  To unpack this behavior, Dr. Merali includes many humorous examples from his experience as a pediatrician and father, but the core lessons are drawn from two decades worth of fascinating and surprising studies in child psychology and development. Merali connects these studies to research about adults to create the first book to offer adults important lessons that can be gleaned from toddlers.  
   
  Toddlers can teach you many things, including how to: 
  • Lose weight naturally • Sleep better • Build stronger friendships • Improve teamwork • Be more productive • Have more fun, and • Live a more fulfilling life 
   
  Sleep Well, Take Risks, Squish the Peas shows us how toddlers bring out the best in humanity and how we can, too. It’s a whole new way of looking at and learning from toddlers.

  Quick Fixes - Drugs in America...

  Americans are in the midst of a world-historic drug binge. Opiates, amphetamines, benzodiazepines, marijuana, antidepressants, antipsychotics—across the board, consumption has shot up in the twenty-first century. At the same time, the United States is home to the largest prison system in the world, justified in part by a now zombified "war" on drugs. How did we get here? 
   
   
   
  Quick Fixes is a look at American society through the lens of its pharmacological crutches. Though particularly acute in recent decades, the contradiction between America's passionate love and intense hatred for drugs has been one of its defining characteristics for over a century. 
   
   
   
  Through nine chapters, each devoted to the modern history of a drug or class of drugs, Fong examines Americans' fraught relationship with psychoactive substances. As society changes it produces different forms of stress, isolation, and alienation. These changes, in turn, shape the sorts of drugs society chooses. 
   
   
   
  By laying out the histories, functions, and experiences of our chemical comforts, the hope is to help answer that ever perplexing question: what does it mean to be an American?
