Book Synopsis Sonnet to Science by : Sam Illingworth
Download or read book Sonnet to Science written by Sam Illingworth and published by . This book was released on 2019-05-31 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A sonnet to science presents an account of six ground-breaking scientists who also wrote poetry, and the effect that this had on their lives and research. How was the universal computer inspired by Lord Byron? Why was the link between malaria and mosquitos first captured in the form of a poem? Who did Humphry Davy consider to be an 'illiterate pirate'? Written by leading science communicator and scientific poet Dr Sam Illingworth, A sonnet to science presents an aspirational account of how these two disciplines can work together, and in so doing aims to inspire both current and future generations of scientists and poets that these worlds are not mutually exclusive, but rather complementary in nature.
Book Synopsis Science and Poetry by : Mary Midgley
Download or read book Science and Poetry written by Mary Midgley and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-04-15 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Crude materialism, reduction of mind to body, extreme individualism. All products of a 17th century scientific inheritance which looks at the parts of our existence at the expense of the whole. Cutting through myths of scientific omnipotence, Mary Midgley explores how this inheritance has so powerfully shaped the way we are, and the problems it has brought with it. She argues that poetry and the arts can help reconcile these problems, and counteract generations of 'one-eyed specialists', unable and unwilling to look beyond their own scientific or literary sphere. Dawkins, Atkins, Bacon and Descartes all come under fire as Midgely sears through contemporary debate, from Gaia to memes, and organic food to greenhouse gases. After years of unquestioned imperialism, science is finally forced to take a step back and acknowledge the arts.

Book excerpt: Paris Review Staff Pick A Book Riot Must-Read Poetry Collection Soft Science explores queer, Asian American femininity. A series of Turing Test-inspired poems grounds its exploration of questions not just of identity, but of consciousness—how to be tender and feeling and still survive a violent world filled with artificial intelligence and automation. We are dropped straight into the tangled intersections of technology, violence, erasure, agency, gender, and loneliness. "Choi creates an exhilarating matrix of poetry, science, and technology." —Publishers Weekly "Franny Choi combines technology and poetry to stunning effect." –BUSTLE “…these beautiful, fractal-like poems are meditations on identity and autonomy and offer consciousness-expanding forays into topics like violence and gender, love and isolation.” –NYLON

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The magic of Rhyme has made learning easier and more enjoyable for my students and science workshop participants over my 41 years of writing and using my Science poems and songs. Ill share that magic with you through the pages of my book. Mr. Musmanno invites you to enjoy learning the important science education involved in the NSTAs And New Jersey Science Core Curriculum content Standards. The poems in the book will be easy and enjoyable to learn because they rhyme. For example, you will learn about an insect from the grasshopper poem. The chorus to the poem goesI am an insect, Ive got six legs you see. And three parts to my bodyI am an insect. The magic of rhyme will make learning easier most of the time. Many years ago, when I first started teaching, I was told that the vice principal would be coming in to evaluate my lesson on the upcoming Monday. I was worried and wanted to do my best. We were studying the cell and the vocabulary included the wordsendoplasmic reticulum, mitochondrion, protoplasm, etc.. A lot of my students had trouble reading so I had to develop a lesson that would enable them to be able to pronounce, read and understand the vocabulary and the lesson about the cell. I was a lead singer in a band in my younger years and realized that the rhymes to the lyrics of the songs made it easy for me to remember and understand. So, I wrote my first science poem and science songThe Cell. I drew the parts of the cell on the board, labeled them and explained what the parts did. The students copied the drawing and the information. Then as a review of the lesson, we read the cell poem. The kids were able to pronounce the words and understand them through the magic of rhyme. The kids loved it and my principal said it was a great lesson and great poem. Use the poems in my book to help you or someone else near you understand the concepts of Science. I even invited my students to write Science poems about the science we were studying. They even wrote Science Songs. I taught for 41 years using my poems and songs about science to stir up the magic of rhyme in my classroom and science workshops to make the learning easier and more enjoyable. I was even sent to Puerto Rico and South Korea to teach Science teachers and school principals hands on Science lessons and share my poems and songs with them. Theyre probably using my poems and songs right now. Now Ive included many of them in my book. Enjoy the magic of rhyme to make your learning easier and more enjoyable most of the time.

Book Synopsis Science and Other Poems by : Alison Hawthorne Deming
Download or read book Science and Other Poems written by Alison Hawthorne Deming and published by LSU Press. This book was released on 1994-03-01 with total page 94 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “I greatly admire Alison Deming’s lucid and precise language, her stunning metaphors, her passion, her wild and generous spirit, her humor, her formal cunning. I am taken, as all readers will be, by the knowledge she displays and how she puts this knowledge to a poetic use; but I am equally taken—I am more taken—by the wisdom that lies behind the knowledge. I am amazed, and delighted, by her authority and tenacity. She is of this world; she lives in it, and for better or worse, it is the world she settles for; and she understands that, even if she must rage a little, and sometimes more than a little, she is one of its citizens. Like every original poet, she appears to have sprung full-blown—out of Zeus’ head I want to say—but Aphrodite is here as well as Athena, the ocean as well as the mountain. I congratulate her on this fine book.”—Gerald Stern Alison Hawthorne Deming brings to her first collection of verse the kinds of scrupulous observation and clear-eyed analysis that characterize scientific inquiry as well as a poet’s eye for the telling moment.Science and Other Poems establishes astonishing parallels between the mute, inexorable processes of the physical universe and the dark mysteries of the human heart, parallels so clearly wrought and convincing that we wonder why we had not recognized them before. “Caffe Trieste” lays bare the unexamined terror and sorrow that underlie the proliferation of faux fifties kitsch, then strips the veil of spacious grace from the decade and reveals it as it was for those who lived it: . . . bombs spread like bacteria on culture plates, when the cost of a family staying together might be Stelanize and high-voltage erasures. They’re just American— all shine and no pain. In the chilling “Alliance, Ohio,” a mother and daughter suddenly find themselves stranded in a world of predators, a poisonous world charged with sexual threat, where every smile, every gesture, drips with sly menace. Yet moments of dislocation can also be cause for rejoicing, as when a speaker, after surprising a bat in the house, is moved to rapture by the sight of the night sky. Every page of Science and Other Poems is alive with startling juxtapositions, eerie parallels, abrupt shifts of tone, and image after image of crystalline perfection—as in this dazzling evocation of soft-shelled crabs: “their finely stippled bodies that give to the touch, / translucent as Japanese lanterns.” These poems imbue everything, from the microscopic to the stellar, with wonder. Each instant of illumination, like poetry itself, brings the world alive with “a faithfulness deeper than seeing.”
