Black Holes and Our Place on Earth

In Unreliable, the distinguished scientist Csaba Szabo examines the causes and consequences of the reproducibility crisis in biomedical research, showing why the factors that encourage misconduct stem from flaws in real-world science.

Begin to understand the cosmos with this easy-to-use introduction Astrophysics is the application of physics to astronomical studies, dedicated to understanding the properties of celestial objects even from an immeasurable distance. Cosmology is the study of the Universe itself: its properties, its origins, its ongoing evolution. Together, these two are among the foundational subfields of astronomy, producing extraordinary insights into the broader cosmos we inhabit. Introduction to Astrophysics &amp; Cosmology provides a foundational introduction to these two subjects, intended for interested students with little to no prior knowledge of astronomy. Emphasizing basic physical principles throughout, it covers astronomical bodies and spaces at all scales, from the whole cosmos to our own solar system. The result is an indispensable guide for students wishing to familiarize themselves with the study of our Universe. Introduction to Astrophysics &amp; Cosmology readers will also find: Discussion of astronomical tools such as telescopes and moreProblems and self-assessment questions, with solutions, at the conclusion of each chapterLinks to other valuable online resourcesIntroduction to Astrophysics &amp; Cosmology is ideal for undergraduate physics or astronomy students, as well as general readers with some physical knowledge desiring an introductory astronomy text.

Introduction to Astrophysics & Cosmology

Take a new look at the world around you. What is a planet? Is there life on Mars? What makes Earth so special? Questions about our Solar System have fascinated us for centuries. Based on the latest scientific research, The Story of the Solar System will help you see the planets around us in a whole new light. Using colourful and easy-to-follow infographics, each planet becomes a character with a story of its own to tell, from Jupiter the King of the Solar System to ice oddity Uranus and outlier planet-but-not-a-planet Pluto. As Space Scientist Maggie Aderin-Pocock shows us, the story of Earth is best understood as part of its larger family, and The Story of the Solar System will bring that family 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.

Examining French ideological novels, Louise Lyle charts the development of French hostility towards social Darwinism during the fin de siècle. Lyle argues that the antagonism of a wide range of authors from diverse literary schools was a consequence of and a response to historically specific insecurities relative to the state of the French nation. Grounded in the cultural history of biology, Lyle's study is an important contribution to literature and the history of science.

Social Darwinism in the French Ideological Novel

"Brian Fauteux's definitive study of satellite radio in North America reveals SiriusXM as both a monument to radio's resilience and continued cultural significance and a prime example of how monopoly and financialization wreak havoc on the music industry."--Elena Razlogova, author of The Listener's Voice: Early Radio and the American Public "This is an important and groundbreaking book that traces how one audio service became a multimodal digital platform. Essential reading for scholars of radio and audio media, media industries, and media technologies."--Alexander T. Russo, author of Points on the Dial: Golden Age Radio beyond the Networks "Deeply attentive to the dynamics of media industries and policymaking, Fauteux shows how satellites became central to music distribution over the last thirty years. His highly engaging book details the rise of SiriusXM and powerfully reveals how orbit serves as a domain of culture, value, and commodification in radio and streaming industries."--Lisa Parks, author of Cultures in Orbit: Satellites and the Televisual "Fauteux orbits dazzlingly around his subject matter, covering satellite music's shifting value as a commodity, an industry, and a source of cultural connection during its brief history. A must-read for anyone interested in the culture, technology, and business of twenty-first-century music circulation and reception."--Jason Loviglio, author of Radio's Intimate Public: Network Broadcasting and Mass-Mediated Democracy ​

Routledge Studies in Eighteenth-Century Philosophy

This book provides the first comprehensive discussion regarding the role that Kant ascribes to systematicity in the sciences. It considers not only what Kant has to say on systematicity in general, but also how the systematicity requirement for science is specified in different fields of knowledge.

A Useful Idiot’s Guide to the Universe

This book describes the development of our understanding of the strong interactions in particle physics, through its competing ideas and personalities, its false starts, blind alleys, and moments of glory - culminating with the author's discovery of quarks, real particles living in a deeper layer of reality. How were quarks discovered, what did physicists think they were, and what did they turn out to be? These questions are answered through a collection of personal remembrances. The focus is on the reality of quarks, and why that reality made them so difficult to accept. How Feynman and Gell-Mann practiced physics, with their contrasting styles and motivations, presented different obstacles to accepting this reality. And how was the author, as a graduate student, able to imagine their existence, and act on it? Science buffs, students, and experts alike will find much here to pique their interest and learn about quarks along the way.

Discovering Quarks

An examination of Elon Musk during the most consequential period of his life, from the height of his power as the richest man on Earth to the potential beginnings of his downfall. What happened to Elon Musk? In six years, he turned Tesla into the world's most valuable automaker and cast himself as a savior of humanity, an altruist whose fortune would stop climate change and colonize Mars. How did this modern-day Edison devolve into a polarizing and perpetually distracted CEO and arguably the biggest bag-fumbler in human history? He didn't suddenly lose his mind, or morph into a tool of foreign agents. Elon Musk torched his reputation and put his entire empire at risk simply by being himself. Hubris Maximus provides a gripping, detailed portrait of the billionaire's rapid ascent and his spectacular public implosion. Washington Post reporter Faiz Siddiqui methodically deconstructs the making of the self-anointed Technoking, arguing that the warning signs were always visible to anyone willing to look. Musk's audacity and erratic behavior drove his success from the start; he spurned regulators and whistleblowers, and replaced those who dared question him with loyalists. Now he is in a unique position to sabotage it all, and there is no one left to save him from himself. This remarkable case study in the pitfalls of unyielding loyalty to one man and the fecklessness of a gridlocked government is ultimately a cautionary tale: in a world that can't turn away from its screens, competence is no match for the power of influence and sustained attention.
