BBC: The Story of the Human Body

A memoir about faith, demons, and the courage to ask questions

Learning to Think

Take a new look at the world around you. The BBC is the world's oldest and most recognised public service broadcaster, with a mission to enrich people's lives through programming that informs, educates and entertains.

Take a new look at the world around you. What were the earliest dinosaurs like? How did they communicate? How do we know so much about them and why did they disappear? Which were the fastest, the fiercest, or the longest living? Based on the latest scientific research, The Story of the Dinosaurs will show you these ancient creatures in a whole new light. Using colourful and easy-to-follow infographics, each dinosaur is analysed, from the well-known Tyrannosaurus rex and Triceratops to the lesser known but equally fascinating Ichythosaur and Rhamphorhynchus. Palaeoanthropologist Ella Al-Shamahi guides us through the amazing world of prehistoric earth, and The Story of the Dinosaurs will bring its most infamous inhabitants to life. The BBC is the world's oldest and most recognised public service broadcaster, with a mission to enrich people's lives through programming that informs, educates and entertains. At the heart of that mission is great storytelling, and The Story Of guides use those tools to bring big subjects to life. With engaging infographics and illustration, accessible language and simple timelines, The Story Of will help you discover new worlds.

Secret Life of

Unlock the mysteries of the most important, surprising and fascinating equations in history

Behind every important scientific discovery there is an equation. They are far from baffling, and now you too can understand their power and beauty! Discover the 50 equations that have led to incredible discoveries, ground-breaking technology and have shaped our understanding of the world. From much heralded classics as e=mc2 and Pythagoras's Theorem, to Fuzzy Logic and Google PageRank, each equation is tackled head-on, broken down and explained in a unique, entertaining way so that you understand exactly how it works and why it's worth knowing about. Innovative illustrations and accessible text help you understand each equation's function, individual elements and development. Along the way you'll discover some surprising stories about the people behind the discoveries and how their brilliant insights resulted in ideas and technology we now take for granted. Covering geometry, technology, science, chance and mathematical theory, The Secret Life of Equations will enlighten and entertain in equal measure. Chapters include: Geometry and Number Trigonometry; Fibonacci Numbers; The Fundamental Theorem of Calculus Science Newton's Second Law; Universal Gravitation; Entropy Technology The Cross-Ratio; De Morgan's Laws; Quaternion Rotation Chance and Uncertainty The Exponential Distribution; The Normal Distribution; The Chi-Square Test

A Perfect Harmony

Is humankind bound for distant stars or are we inextricably bound to our own star? Can we overcome the main challenge, that even the nearest stars are unimaginably far away? This is a critical exploration of the proposed technologies and practicalities of undertaking an interstellar journey.

Interstellar Travel and the Limits of the Possible

Starbound

Nuclear war is a far greater immediate threat to humanity's survival than climate change, but why is no one talking about it?A blip comes onto radar screens, followed by another. False alarm? System malfunction? Or is a massive missile about to hit? With America's 'launch on warning' policy, the US president has as little as six minutes to decide whether to mount a nuclear response. The world teeters constantly on the brink of nuclear annihilation - and yet nobody is even talking about it. There are no marches, no COPs, no nuclear Greta, but nuclear war is a greater immediate threat to humanity's survival than climate change. A full nuclear exchange would literally mean the end of civilisation , destroying in a week what has taken millennia to build. In the post-nuclear global darkness there would be no photosynthesis. The biosphere would be wiped out in a mass extinction rivalled only by the asteroid that killed the dinosaurs. Temperatures would fall below freezing for months on end. Virtually the entire global human population would starve, and there would be no reliable refuge. Ignoring the issue is no more of a solution to the nuclear threat than it was to the climate one. Six Minutes to Winter outlines the horror but also proposes a solution - the building of an international political movement fighting for the total global abolition of these terrible weapons. And the time to start is now.

Nuclear War and How to Avoid It

Six Minutes to Winter

A Natural and Human History

Metamorphosis

A collection of offbeat and entertaining primarily non-technical essays on physics and those who practice it, from well-known physicist N. David Mermin. These witty observations and humorous anecdotes will appeal to anyone with an interest in physical science or scientists at the turn of the twenty-first century.

And Other Scientific Diversions

Why Quark Rhymes with Pork

To most, dreams are things that slip away when you re-emerge into the waking world, their remnants jumbled-up and only half-recalled. At their best, they are populated by pleasant recollections and surreal experiences. But at their worst, they can be traumatising and leave us feeling worse off than when we fell asleep. So why do we dream at all? What makes a person more prone to nightmares? How do our bodies interface with our brains when we're not awake? And how can we harness our sleeping minds to improve our waking lives?In Into the Dream Lab, dream researcher Dr Michelle Carr unlocks the science behind the sleeping body, exploring the relationship between dreams and physical health, with a deep dive into the neuroscience behind some of the most interesting aspects of dreaming: nightmares, lucid dreams, and the cutting-edge field of dream engineering.
