Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At fourteen, he was curious, yet quiet and shy. His biggest fear would have to be math quizzes, and he knew that Bill would always be his best friend. To him: Diane was the most beautiful woman in the universe. He could not imagine loving anyone else. Three things he knew would last forever were those. While remembering long ago, thoughts of one day getting married to Diane, having children, cooking out in the street on Sundays for the whole block to attend. In his youth, this is how he saw his life play out. That was until he met his worst fear face to face. General Loat would then spend the rest of his life running from that nightmare all the while throughout the universe his name would stand alone as the most wanted man alive. Treachery lies and murder were the main course, but those three were not his favorite things. Yet the Universal Judgment Committee hunted him by forcing themselves upon him in such a horrific way as though one had just eaten a fowl meal that would eventually leave a bad taste in his mouth all the while with him sitting in the middle of this precipice knowing he only had one option. Stay alive. No matter what he tried, no matter how hard he fought nothing would help to remove the stain tattooed upon his taste buds. This was not what he wanted. This was not what he deserved. This is what he was thrown into, this is what he was forced to do and he knew that in order for the universe to see peace once more, one of two things had to happen.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The human curiosity about the cosmos has historically inspired countless discoveries and innovations. This book, "Parallel Galactic Memory: The Layers of Time in the Universe and Cosmic Archives," represents an extension of this eternal quest to understand the universe's secrets and its enigmatic aspects. It aims to offer a comprehensive exploration of the intricate relationship between time, galactic memory, and cosmic consciousness. Our understanding of the universe's origins and the birth of time is in constant evolution. From the fundamental theories about the Big Bang to the role of time layers in the cosmos, the topics discussed here illuminate some of the most profound and exciting questions in science. This book goes beyond theoretical and scientific debates to offer insights into the future role of cosmic memory and the shaping of galactic libraries. Each chapter can be seen as a thought experiment designed to push the boundaries of our understanding of the universe's complexity. Themes such as the relationship between knowledge and consciousness, time travel, and galactic memory not only delve into scientific discovery but also explore philosophical and ethical questions. The book aims to guide readers on a daring journey to explore cosmic knowledge. In this journey, we pause at the intersections of the past, present, and future, contemplating a broad spectrum of ideas—from the information-gathering processes of galaxies to the traces of lost civilizations. Questions such as whether the universe itself possesses a form of consciousness and the ways conscious minds might access galactic memory are central to our exploration. In writing this book, I have endeavored to integrate information from a variety of sources and disciplines. Each chapter is supported by scientific data and in-depth analysis, offering readers a new perspective on the universe and conscious cosmos. This comprehensive work is intended to inspire and inform those seeking to understand the deep layers of cosmic knowledge. I hope this book serves as both an inspiring and informative resource for anyone dedicated to uncovering the mysteries of the cosmos. As we embark on this journey together, I look forward to the possibility of this work being the beginning of many discoveries yet to come. Thank you for joining me on this exploration. There are many more secrets to be uncovered in the depths of the cosmos, and I hope this book marks the start of that journey.

This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 767 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the centennial year, 1985-86, of Harlow Shapley's birth, the study of globular clusters was no less important to the development of astronomy than in 1915, when Shapley first noted their concentration on the sky. By 1917 Shapley had used the properties of the system of globular clusters to complete the Copernican revolution and locate the solar system, and its Earth-bound observers, far from the center of the Galaxy and the globular cluster distribution. Seven decades later, in the year of these proceedings, globular cluster research and the study of the system of globular clusters in our own and distant galaxies is undergoing a renaissance of activity. The introduction of new observational tools, particularly CCD imagers and digital spectrographs, as well as powerful theoretical methods have transformed the study of globular clusters into one of the main line areas of modern astrophysics. Thus it seemed particularly appropriate to one of us, when considering how the Harvard College Observatory might mark the Shapley centennial, to propose and plan for an IAU Symposium on Globular Cluster Systems in Galaxies. Planning for the Shapley Symposium, as it came to be called, was even more drawn out than the preparation of this volume. The Symposium was originally proposed to the IAU Secretariat in time for it to be held in August, 1985, so that it might occur in the centennial (calendar) year.

The event took place from June 1 to June 2, 2000, in Am sterdam. We hope that readers will find these proceedings to be valuable, not only for virtual environment researchers, but also for practitioners developing or using virtual environment applications. We are glad to report that visibility of the workshop continues to expand and that virtual environment researchers and practitioners from allover the world are submitting papers. This year, 40 papers and case studies were submitted of which 20 were accepted. In addition, we are glad to see that the focus of the workshop is also expanding. We accepted 6 research papers on evaluation of virtual environments and there was a broad sampling of other topics. We would like to thank all those involved in organizing the symposium. In particular, thanks go to Mieke Brune who was in charge of the local organization. In addition, we want to thank the international program committee for their excellent, yet laborious, job in reviewing all submitted papers. The quality of the workshop is a reflection of the quality of the submitted papers and the quality of the reviewing process.

Book excerpt: The award-winning Uplift novels comprise one of the greatest achievements in science fiction history. Dramatic, thought-provoking, and inventive, these books describe a fully realized world rich in character, detail, and ideas. Now Uplift author David Brin collaborates with acclaimed artist Kevin Lenagh to compile the definitive guide to the species, societies, and technology of one of the greatest feats of literary world-building ever accomplished. CONTACTING ALIENS Here in the form of a handbook for Terran field agents is a detailed look at Uplift’s many alien races--from the friendly Tymbrimi to the warlike Tandu, from the wise and enigmatic Kanten to the fiercely reptilian Soro, from the bureaucratic Hoon to the manipulative Thennanin--their physiology, psychology, history; their clans and alliances; and their shifting attitudes toward Earth and its representatives. Here, too, is a history of Earth’s contact and challenging interactions with the mysterious and powerful Civilization of Five Galaxies, a look at its institutions, languages, and customs, plus a time line of momentous events going back 3 billion years. For the millions of fans of the Uplift novels, this long-awaited guide will be an essential reference work, filled with vital information and never-before-seen illustrations that reveal, for the first time in one volume, the keys to the ambitious vision and bold speculation of the Uplift universe.

Book excerpt: The world, as Lafayette O'Leary knew it, disappeared in a flash. Perhaps it was his own doing - after all, he had the uncanny gift of creating alternate realities by sheer mental power. But the result was a nightmare gone out of control. All O'Leary wanted was to find his wife and return to the familiar world of Artesia. Yet no sooner did he manage to extricate himself from one bizarre situation than he was thrust into another, equally threatening... There was only one thing to do: he had to penetrate the very center of power from which his destiny was being controlled and - take it into his own hands!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The concepts of dark matter and the cosmic web are some of the most significant developments in cosmology in the past century. They have decisively changed the classical cosmological paradigm, which was first elaborated upon during the first half of the 20th century but ran into serious problems in the second half. Today, they are integral parts of modern cosmology, which explains everything from the Big Bang to inflation to the large-scale structure of the Universe.Dark Matter and Cosmic Web Story describes the contributions that led to a paradigm shift from the Eastern point of view. It describes the problems with the classical view, the attempts to solve them, the difficulties encountered by those solutions, and the conferences where the merits of the new concepts were debated. Amidst the science, the story of scientific work in a small country occupied by the Soviet Union and the tumultuous events that led to its breakup are detailed as well.The development of cosmology has often treated as a West-East conflict between the American school led by Jim Peebles in Princeton and the Soviet team led by Yakov Zeldovich in Moscow. Actually, the development of ideas was broader, and a certain role played the Tartu team. The Tartu cosmology school was founded by Ernst Öpik and has its own traditions and attitude to science. In the new edition of the book the interplay between three cosmology schools is written in more detail. The recent development of dark matter and cosmic web studies is described, as well as the evolution of global properties of the cosmic web.This book is accompanied by a website which contains additional material: copies of the originals of some crucial papers, astronomical movies, and movies which showcase the private life of the author. In this second edition, two chapters on the statistical description of the cosmic web and its development were added, as well as chapter on the sociology of science. To keep the length of this book reasonable, a lot of reorganisation of the text has been done as well.

Book excerpt: The articles in Myths of Origins provide insights into the universality of myths of origins as patterns of literary creation from Antiquity to the present. The essays range from an investigation of the six models of beginnings in Western literature to the workings of modern myths of origins in postcolonial literature and relocate the discussion on myths of origin in a wider context that besides the humanities considers linguistics and the impact of new technologies. The contributing authors to the volume shed light on issues relating to myths of origins by linking this subject to literary creation and adopting a multidisciplinary approach.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Go-To Telescopes Under Suburban Skies is the first book specifically written for amateur astronomers who own, or who are about to purchase, a computer-controlled ‘go-to’ telescope. The advantage of the ‘go-to’ capability is enormous – the telescope can be aimed at any object in the sky with great speed and accuracy – which is why these instruments are so popular. Making the realistic assumption that the observer is using a relatively small telescope and is observing from a backyard in a suburban area, this book provides literally hundreds more targets beyond those offered by the built-in ‘nightly tours’ that feature on the telescope’s computer tours. And instead of wasting many pages on maps and coordinates, it leads the computer to locate the targets, and so has room to suggest many more fascinating deep-sky objects and provide detailed observing lists and information about what's being viewed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, Simon Perry has brought together a discussion of politics, philosophy, religion, and science by using the Declaration of Independence as a backdrop. He questions whether Jefferson was motivated by God. Is there a role for religion in our government? Is God real or a fantasy? Is the Good Book really good? Why has man turned to God to achieve eternal life? Does the mythicism of creation prevail over evolution? Is man indoctrinated at an early age to accept God unconditionally? These are but a few of the questions that he deals with. As you read, you will discover others. He spent five years researching this book and it relies heavily on the great scholars of religion, science, and politics. This book lays bare our cognitive distortions of who we are and where we came from.
