In a desperate fight against insurmountable odds, mankind's only hope is a lifer Marine with a violent past he can barely remember and a penchant for picking fights he shouldn't win.

Download or read book Lucky Planet written by David Waltham and published by Icon Books Ltd. This book was released on 2014-05-01 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Science tells us that life elsewhere in the Universe is increasingly likely to be discovered. But in fact the Earth may be a very unusual planet – perhaps the only one like it in the entire visible Universe. In Lucky Planet David Waltham asks why, and comes up with some surprising and unconventional answers. Recent geological, biological, and astronomical discoveries are bringing us closer to understanding whether we might be alone in the Universe, and this book uses these to question the conventional wisdom and suggest, instead, that the Earth may have had ‘four billion years of good weather’ purely by chance. If Earth-like worlds don’t have natural stabilising mechanisms, then intelligent observers such as ourselves will only ever look out onto those rare planets where, like the Earth, all the bad things that could have happened to the climate have fortunately cancelled each other out. So before you prepare to meet the aliens, consider that we are probably alone ...
Book Synopsis The Biggest Ideas in the Universe by : Sean Carroll
Download or read book The Biggest Ideas in the Universe written by Sean Carroll and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2022-09-20 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER “Most appealing... technical accuracy and lightness of tone... Impeccable.”—Wall Street Journal “A porthole into another world.”—Scientific American “Brings science dissemination to a new level.”—Science The most trusted explainer of the most mind-boggling concepts pulls back the veil of mystery that has too long cloaked the most valuable building blocks of modern science. Sean Carroll, with his genius for making complex notions entertaining, presents in his uniquely lucid voice the fundamental ideas informing the modern physics of reality. Physics offers deep insights into the workings of the universe but those insights come in the form of equations that often look like gobbledygook. Sean Carroll shows that they are really like meaningful poems that can help us fly over sierras to discover a miraculous multidimensional landscape alive with radiant giants, warped space-time, and bewilderingly powerful forces. High school calculus is itself a centuries-old marvel as worthy of our gaze as the Mona Lisa. And it may come as a surprise the extent to which all our most cutting-edge ideas about black holes are built on the math calculus enables. No one else could so smoothly guide readers toward grasping the very equation Einstein used to describe his theory of general relativity. In the tradition of the legendary Richard Feynman lectures presented sixty years ago, this book is an inspiring, dazzling introduction to a way of seeing that will resonate across cultural and generational boundaries for many years to come.

Paolo Beltrame investigates the “Muon g-2” experiment that has physicists speculating if it is a “new physics”. Argentinian Jesuit Diego Fares reviews a rich body of speeches that the Pope has produced in, for and from the Latin American region in Pope Francis and his Messages to Latin America. Fr Giovanni Sale looks at the Arab Spring ten years on. The aim of these revolutions was greater political and socio-economic participation. Have they succeeded and what are the lasting outcomes?

Now a pioneering planetary scientist, she searches for exoplanets—especially that distant, elusive world that sustains life. But with the unexpected death of Seager’s husband, the purpose of her own life becomes hard for her to see. Suddenly, at forty, she is a widow and the single mother of two young boys. For the first time, she feels alone in the universe. As she struggles to navigate her life after loss, Seager takes solace in the alien beauty of exoplanets and the technical challenges of exploration. At the same time, she discovers earthbound connections that feel every bit as wondrous, when strangers and loved ones alike reach out to her across the space of her grief. Among them are the Widows of Concord, a group of women offering advice on everything from home maintenance to dating, and her beloved sons, Max and Alex. Most unexpected of all, there is another kind of one-in-a-billion match, not in the stars but here at home. Probing and invigoratingly honest, The Smallest Lights in the Universe is its own kind of light in the dark.
Book Synopsis Our Own Private Universe by : Robin Talley

Book excerpt: Fifteen-year-old Aki Simon has a theory. And it's mostly about sex. No, it isn't that kind of theory. Aki already knows she's bisexual—even if, until now, it's mostly been in the hypothetical sense. Aki has dated only guys so far, and her best friend, Lori, is the only person who knows she likes girls, too. Actually, Aki's theory is that she's got only one shot at living an interesting life—and that means she's got to stop sitting around and thinking so much. It's time for her to actually do something. Or at least try. So when Aki and Lori set off on a church youth-group trip to a small Mexican town for the summer and Aki meets Christa—slightly older, far more experienced—it seems her theory is prime for the testing. But it's not going to be easy. For one thing, how exactly do two girls have sex, anyway? And more important, how can you tell if you're in love? It's going to be a summer of testing theories—and the result may just be love.

Book Synopsis Spiritual Gardening by : Caroline A. Baez
Download or read book Spiritual Gardening written by Caroline A. Baez and published by Palibrio. This book was released on 2017-03-15 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What do we all seek? We seek happiness. Many believe that happiness eludes them, and this is the cause of much suffering. What if you were to discover that the key to happiness resides within you, where it has always been? What if youve been seeking in the opposite direction for a key that has always been in your possession, a key that will release you from a prison of shadows and suffering, allowing you to finally bask in the light of inner wisdom and freedom? The solution lies in returning to the root of oneself by rediscovering the inner wisdom that abides in each of us. Our society, our culture, and the frenzied world in which we live confront us with daily stimuli and external signals of who we are or should be, of what we should prioritize or value, and of what our aspirations and successes should model or resemble. Hypnotized by a world of illusions, we live a reality of half-truthan ephemeral world of impermanent pleasures that disintegrate like the ethereal beauty of delicate snowflakes cascading onto the sea. Guiding our focus inwardly to our silent inner space, we reconnect with the inner master residing in the blooming garden of our True Self. Embarking on this intimate journey and cultivating this inner path daily, we find refuge in our expansive inner space where we discover the gateway to freedom from suffering and the light of true happiness. The intention of this work is to guide readers to their own inner journey, to intimate reflection, and to daily cultivation of all that they desire will blossom in their own lives, thereby denominating this book and this practice, Spiritual Gardening.
