Book excerpt: His reputation had been secure. He was the world's most feared supervillain! But then he saved the world... News cameras had captured every moment of the battle in which Doctor Fid single-handedly averted an alien invasion. As details emerge, the public discovers how close the Earth had come to inescapable subjugation…or to complete annihilation. In the aftermath, there are many who wonder if the veteran villain has changed his ways. There are many who think that Doctor Fid might not be a monster after all. Notoriety is important to many of Doctor Fid’s long-term plans to punish the unworthy, and this shift in public perception threatens to undermine decades’ worth of effort…but it also presents a tempting opportunity. New foes appear and new challenges arise, and through it all Doctor Fid must decide for himself what role he will play. Can the notorious supervillain set aside the goals that he’s sacrificed half his life to achieve? Can he become the hero the the world needs? Or will he remain the villain that the world’s heroes deserve? Find out in Behind Distant Stars: Book Two in the Chronicles of Fid!

Download or read book The Sun's Heartbeat written by Bob Berman and published by Hachette UK. This book was released on 2011-07-13 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The beating heart of the sun is the very pulse of life on earth. And from the ancients who plotted its path at Stonehenge to the modern scientists who unraveled the nuclear fusion reaction that turns mass into energy, humankind has sought to solve its mysteries. In this lively biography of the sun, Bob Berman ranges from its stellar birth to its spectacular future death with a focus on the wondrous and enthralling, and on the heartbreaking sacrifice, laughable errors, egotistical battles, and brilliant inspirations of the people who have tried to understand its power. What, exactly, are the ghostly streaks of light astronauts see-but can't photograph-when they're in space? And why is it impossible for two people to see the exact same rainbow? Why are scientists beginning to think that the sun is safer than sunscreen? And how does the fluctuation of sunspots-and its heartbeat-affect everything from satellite communications to wheat production across the globe? Peppered with mind-blowing facts and memorable anecdotes about spectral curiosities-the recently-discovered "second sun" that lurks beneath the solar surface, the eerie majesty of a total solar eclipse-The Sun's Heartbeat offers a robust and entertaining narrative of how the Sun has shaped humanity and our understanding of the universe around us.
Book Synopsis Introducing the Stars by : Martin Beech
Download or read book Introducing the Stars written by Martin Beech and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-03-28 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This textbook introduces the reader to the basic concepts and equations that describe stellar structure. Various approximation techniques are used to solve equations, and an intuitive rather than rigorous approach is employed to interpret the properties of the stars. The book provides step-by-step instructions, helpful exercises and relevant historical lessons to familiarize students with key concepts and mathematical theories. Based upon a series of one-semester (12 weeks) elective undergraduate courses offered at the University of Regina, this book is intended for students who are interested in seeing how basic calculus and introductory physics can be applied to the understanding of the stars from their formation to their death. The text provides an intermediate stepping stone between lower-level undergraduate classes and more specialized postgraduate texts on the subject of stellar structure.
Book Synopsis Relativity for Everyone by : Kurt Fischer
Download or read book Relativity for Everyone written by Kurt Fischer and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-07-05 with total page 129 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explains the theory of special and general relativity in detail, without digressions such as information on Einstein's life or the historical background. However, complicated calculations are replaced with figures and thought experiments, the text being formulated in such a way that the reader will be able to understand the gist intuitively. The first part of the book focuses on the essentials of special relativity. Explanations are provided of the famous equivalence between mass and energy and of why Einstein was able to use the theory of electrodynamics as a template for his "electrodynamics of moving bodies", simply because besides the speed of light, the electric charge itself is also absolute, leading to the relativity of other physical quantities. General relativity is then introduced, mainly with the help of thought experiments. Reference is made to the previously introduced special relativity and the equivalence principle and, using many figures, it is explained how space-time is bending under gravity. The climax of the book comes with the Einstein equations of gravity that describe the way in which matter bends space-time. The reader is shown how to obtain the famous Schwarzschild solution. There follows a numerically correct and yet intuitive explanation of the classic effects such as light bending or the movement of the perihelion. The book concludes by explaining the Friedmann model of the big bang and why the theory of gravity does not fit with quantum theory.
