Book excerpt: In this lush, magical, queer, and feminist take on Hamlet in modern-day New York City, a neuro-atypical physicist, along with his best friend Horatio and artist ex-fiancé, Lia, are caught up in the otherworldly events surrounding the death of his father. Meet Ben Dane: brilliant, devastating, devoted, honest to a fault (truly, a fault). His Broadway theater baron father is dead—but on purpose or by accident? The question rips him apart. Unable to face alone his mother's ghastly remarriage to his uncle, Ben turns to his dearest friend, Horatio Patel, whom he hasn't seen since their relationship changed forever from platonic to something...other. Loyal to a fault (truly, a fault), Horatio is on the first flight to New York City when he finds himself next to a sly tailor who portends inevitable disaster. And who seems ominously like an architect of mayhem himself. Meanwhile, Ben's ex-fiancé, Lia, sundered her from her loved ones thanks to her addiction recovery and torn from her art, has been drawn into the fold of three florists from New Orleans—seemingly ageless sisters who teach her the language of flowers, and whose magical bouquets hold both curses and cures. For a price. On one explosive night these kinetic forces will collide, and the only possible outcome is death. But in the masterly hands of Lyndsay Faye, the story we all know has abundant surprises in store. Impish, captivating, and achingly romantic, this is Hamlet as you've never seen it before.
Book Synopsis Kings of Infinite Space by : James Hynes
Download or read book Kings of Infinite Space written by James Hynes and published by Macmillan + ORM. This book was released on 2005-03-01 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Paul Trilby is having a bad day. If he were to be honest with himself, Paul Trilby would have to admit that he's having a bad life. His wife left him. Three subsequent girlfriends left him. He's fallen from a top-notch university teaching job, to a textbook publisher, to, eventually, working as a temp writer for the General Services department of the Texas Department of General Services. And even here, in this world of carpeted partitions and cheap lighting fixtures, Paul cannot escape the curse his life has become. For it is not until he begins reach out to the office's foul-mouthed mail girl that he begins to notice things are truly wrong. There are sounds coming from the air conditioning vents, bulges in the ceiling, a disappearing body. There are the strange men lurking about town, wearing thick glasses and pocket protectors. The Kings of Infinite Space is a hilarious and macabre spoof on our everyday lives, and gives true voice to the old adage, "Work is Hell."
Book Synopsis The King of Infinite Space by : David Berlinski
Download or read book The King of Infinite Space written by David Berlinski and published by Basic Books. This book was released on 2014-04-08 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Geometry defines the world around us, helping us make sense of everything from architecture to military science to fashion. And for over two thousand years, geometry has been equated with Euclid's Elements, arguably the most influential book in the history of mathematics In The King of Infinite Space, renowned mathematics writer David Berlinski provides a concise homage to this elusive mathematician and his staggering achievements. Berlinski shows that, for centuries, scientists and thinkers from Copernicus to Newton to Einstein have relied on Euclid's axiomatic system, a method of proof still taught in classrooms around the world. Euclid's use of elemental logic -- and the mathematical statements he and others built from it -- have dramatically expanded the frontiers of human knowledge. The King of Infinite Space presents a rich, accessible treatment of Euclid and his beautifully simple geometric system, which continues to shape the way we see the world.
Book Synopsis The Kingdom of Infinite Space by : Raymond Tallis
Download or read book The Kingdom of Infinite Space written by Raymond Tallis and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2014-05-14 with total page 345 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this pathbreaking book, one of Britain s most eloquent and original thinkers writes about the head, what happens in it, and how it is and is not connected to our sense of identity and consciousness. Blending science, philosophy, and humor, Raymond Tallis examines the extraordinarily complex relationship we have with our heads. His aim, as he says, is to turn readers into astonished tourists of the piece of the world that is closest to them, so they never again take for granted the head that looks at them from the mirror. Readers will delight that this is precisely what he accomplishes. The voyage begins with a meditation on the self-portrait of a mirror image, followed by a consideration of the head s various secretions. Tallis contemplates the air we exhale; the subtle meanings of nods, winks, and smiles; the mysteries of hearing, taste, and smell. He discusses the metaphysics of the gaze, the meaning of kissing, and the processes by which the head comes to understand the world. Along the way he offers intriguing digressions on such notions as having and using one s head, and enjoying and suffering it. Tallis concludes with his thoughts on the very thing the reader s head has been doing throughout the book: thinking.

"Steele's hero tells his story in such a way that the reader learns a lot more about him than he is aware of himself. Surprisingly, his bodacious adventures provide good wheels for a rather thoughtful book." -Absolute Magnitude "Alec's story is fast, breezy, funny, and compelling as we follow his journey from spoiled brat to downtrodden slave to hero." -Denver Post
Book Synopsis Infinite-Space Dyadic Green Functions in Electromagnetism by : Muhammad Faryad
Download or read book Infinite-Space Dyadic Green Functions in Electromagnetism written by Muhammad Faryad and published by Morgan & Claypool Publishers. This book was released on 2018-08-13 with total page 165 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In any linear system, the input and the output are connected by means of a linear operator. When the input can be notionally represented by a function that is null valued everywhere except at a specific location in spacetime, the corresponding output is called the Green function in field theories. Dyadic Green functions are commonplace in electromagnetics, because both the input and the output are vector functions of space and time. This book provides a survey of the state-of-the-art knowledge of infinite space dyadic Green functions.
Download or read book Infinite Wonder written by Scott Kelly and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2018-10-30 with total page 786 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the record-breaking astronaut, national hero, and best-selling author of Endurance, a breathtaking collection of photos documenting his journey on the International Space Station, the vastness of space, and the unparalleled beauty of our own home planet. One's perspective shifts when one lives for an entire year--as Commander Scott Kelly, and no other American astronaut in history, has--in the isolating, grueling, and utterly unforgiving vacuum of space. Kelly's photos prove that this perspective--from 250 miles above Earth-- while hard-won, is also almost unspeakably beautiful. A gift for photography helped make Kelly a social media sensation, and here his photos are collected alongside his own commentary, which set the images in their proper contexts, human and cosmic. Kelly captures sunsets, moonrises, the aurora borealis, and the luminous, hazy tapestry of the Milky Way. He presents snapshots of life and work on the International Space Station, from spacewalks to selfies. But above all--or floating amidst all--he takes the earth itself as his celestial muse. Here are hurricanes, wrinkled mountains, New York City shining like a galaxy--glorious photographs that are, in themselves, a passionate argument for the preservation of our planet in the face of climate change and environmental destruction.

Minutes after the axe falls, his right index finger is severed in a freak accident. Doctors manage to reattach the finger, but when the bandages come off, Nelson realizes that he has acquired a strange power--he can force his will onto others with a touch of his finger. And so he obtains an extension on the lease of his university-owned townhouse and picks up two sections of freshman composition, saving his career from utter ruin. But soon these victories seem inconsequential, and Nelson's finger burns for even greater glory. Now the Midas of academia wonders if he can attain what every struggling assistant professor and visiting lecturer covets--tenure. A pitch-perfect blend of satire and horror, The Lecturer's Tale paints a gruesomely clever portrait of life in academia.

Book excerpt: This book is for anyone who wants a fresh approach to modern physics. Are you tired of amusing anecdotes about scientists' personal lives and eureka moments? Bored of chronological narratives of scientific progress through the ages? No longer wowed by ideas like string theory? Interested in first principles thinking and what it can do for you? This book is for you. This book is designed to take you step by step through the fundamental principles that underlie the physics of space, time, and matter. It is a how-to guide for building up our universe from first principles. By posing questions and answering them with illustrations and examples, the book shows how we can demonstrate what we know about the universe with simple concepts and thought experiments. With this book, you too can apply first principles to build up your own model of the universe and how it works, one you can take with you, and apply it to other areas of your life such as your job, business, even your relationships. There are no complicated mathematics in this book and I have minimized the amount of jargon. Thus, it is suitable anyone of any educational background from high school on. The book aims to be straightforward about how we get from simple ideas to complex physical theories. So, if you are interested in a new way of looking at the universe and are not afraid to unlearn some of what you have learned, take a look inside.
Book Synopsis Infinite Universe by : Maciej B. Szymanski
Download or read book Infinite Universe written by Maciej B. Szymanski and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-05 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about the cosmology of a universe that is infinite in time and space. To support the concept of such a universe, one has to abandon the supposition of an infinite range of gravitational interactions. And, one has to dehumanize physics at the fundamental level, which involves the acceptance of two kinds of laws in physics: the fundamental laws of nature that exist independent of the human mind; and the physical laws that are invented by physicists and exist in the human mind only. Those two notions allow for the development of a cosmological model of the universe that is cogent and simple. They also enable the explanation of some of the most notable mysteries in physics, such as the ratio of the electrostatic force to the gravity force for fundamental particles, the force of antigravity and the constancy of the speed of light. Those explanations support the concept of an infinite universe, which is very old. (It dates back to at least the ancient Greeks.) What is new in this book is the attempt to base the cosmology of an infinite universe primarily on logic and the fundamentals of physics rather than astronomic observations, the interpretations of which can be bias. Astronomic observations serve to show that the cosmology of the infinite-in-time universe is feasible. "The Standard Cosmological Model, or Big Bang model, is currently the most widely accepted theory of how the universe is structured. Szymanski, however, argues for a different one, based on the idea that the universe is infinite in time and space and therefore not expanding as the Big Bang model suggests. He achieves this conclusion by arguing that the underlying theories and mathematical laws that inform our current model of the universe are flawed, as they're human inventions that exist only in the mind. The fundamental laws of nature, he maintains, are simple and nonmathematical; he asserts that they support the notion of the Perfect Cosmological Principle, which holds that 'the universe is homogeneous and isotropic on a large space scale and on a large time scale, which implies that the universe is infinite in time and nonevolving.' Disavowing observational methods in favor of logical argument, Szymanski challenges the current understanding of the range of gravitational interactions, photon energy and speed, the distribution of galaxies, and many other areas of cosmology. ... author's prose is clear and relatively easy to follow, so long as one is capable of keeping up with the highly complex concepts. Whether Szymanski's alternative model proves to be accurate or not, the book provides an illustration of how human understanding of the universe continues to evolve."-Kirkus Review
