Sinopsis

"Sky Rains Diamonds" explores the intriguing possibility of diamond formation within the ice giants Uranus and Neptune. It delves into the extreme conditions present within these planets, where immense pressure breaks down hydrocarbon molecules, freeing carbon atoms that then form diamond structures. These diamonds, heavier than the surrounding material, then "rain" down towards the planet's core. This process could significantly impact the planet’s thermal evolution and magnetic field generation, challenging our understanding of planetary interiors and geochemistry.

 
The book begins by establishing a foundation in planetary science, detailing the internal structure and atmospheric composition of Uranus and Neptune. It progresses to explore the experimental and theoretical research, including diamond anvil cell experiments and computer simulations, used to simulate the extreme pressures within these ice giants.

 
The book uniquely connects material science, astrophysics, and geochemistry to build a comprehensive argument, making it valuable for science enthusiasts seeking to expand their knowledge of planetary evolution and the novel carbon cycle occurring in these extreme environments.

    It's a prime ingredient in countless substances from cereal to soup, from cola to coffee. Consumed at the rate of one hundred pounds for every American every year, it's as addictive as nicotine -- and as poisonous. It's sugar. And "Sugar Blues", inspired by the crusade of Hollywood legend Gloria Swanson, is the classic, bestselling expose that unmasks our generation's greatest medical killer and shows how a revitalizing, sugar-free diet can not only change lives, but quite possibly save them.

    Food Health and Climate - Why It...

    By favoring mostly plant-based foods, we can actually save the world – and live longer, healthier lives. 
    A shift to mostly plant-based diets and new food technologies could solve our most important and pressing global problems. Issues like climate change, hunger, freshwater shortages, the Sixth Extinction, antibiotic resistance, and the threat of new pandemics might just melt away with the new food revolution. 
    According to official estimates, meat and other animal-based products account for around 20% of human-generated greenhouse gas emissions. However, the real figure must be significantly higher. Emissions from soils of grazing lands and fields growing cattle feed have not been included in the official statistics. Methane emissions from polluted lakes, rivers, reservoirs and shallow seas are still classified as natural emissions. Besides, cattle raising and fields growing animal feed threaten to transform the whole Amazonian rainforest to semi-dry savannah. If this happens, animal agriculture will become, overwhelmingly, the main driver for global warming. 
    Food, Health and Climate explains why it is not possible to halt global warming without reducing meat consumption. On the other hand, if we manage to shift to more sustainable eating habits, billions of hectares of land will be freed from animal farming and could be used to grow new conservation and carbon-sink forests, or to produce raw materials for new wood- and biomass-based products that could replace metals, concrete, plastics, and chemicals. 
    Risto Isomäki is a Finnish science fiction and science writer and a leading expert on environmental issues.  His books have been published in more than twenty Asian and European languages. 
    “The fiction and non-fiction books written by Risto Isomäki are searching for an equal in the world in their scope and visionarity.” – Professor Heikki Hiilamo, University of Helsinki

    By the end of World War I, Albert Einstein had become the face of the new science of theoretical physics and had made some powerful enemies. One of those enemies, Nobel Prize winner Philipp Lenard, spent a career trying to discredit him. Their story of conflict, pitting Germany’s most widely celebrated Jew against the Nazi scientist who was to become Hitler’s chief advisor on physics, had an impact far exceeding what the scientific community felt at the time. Indeed, their mutual antagonism affected the direction of science long after 1933, when Einstein took flight to America and changed the history of two nations. The Man Who Stalked Einstein details the tense relationship between Einstein and Lenard, their ideas and actions, during the eventful period between World War I and World War II.

    This is volume 4 chapter 18 of a series of books written by the Baron Macaulay (1800-1859) in the 19th century. It starts with a brief resume of the history of England up until the Stuart kings and then starts to delve into a little more detail. Macaulay is primarily fascinated by ending of any claim to divine right of kings and the growing role of Parliament in the governing of the country. He sees the accession of William and Mary (Dutch, Protestant royalty) to the British throne as a key moment in the history of the British Isles. This is a book delightful for the literary gifts of the author and intriguing for his view of 18th century English and world politics.(Jim Mowatt)

    To date, more than a million insect species have been described, with probably at least another 5-8 million species waiting in the wings for a name. Insects are a fascinatingly diverse and beautiful spectrum of animals. They range in size from the tiny parasitic wasp, measuring a mere 139µm, to the aptly named Titan beetle, which can reach lengths of up to 17cm. They can be found on all continents of the world, from the Sahara Desert to the frozen wastes of Antarctica. While no insects live beneath the waves, the intrepid sea skaters skim the surface of some of the world's oceans. 
     
     
     
    This Very Short Introduction explores the extraordinary world of insects. It analyses insect evolution, taxonomy, and development, and describes their behavior, their life styles, and the interactions they have with other insects and other animals. As Simon Leather shows, insects are the bedrock on which human civilization rests; without them we would almost certainly not exist. Although they can be seen as pests of our crops plants, they are also invaluable for pollinating our flowering plants and are an invaluable link in all land ecosystems. As they face challenges from climate change and pesticides it has never been more important to understand these oft-dismissed creatures.
