Book excerpt: The bestselling author of E=mc2 weaves tales of romance, divine inspiration, and fraud through an account of the invisible force that permeates our universe—electricity—and introduces us to the virtuoso scientists who plumbed its secrets. For centuries, electricity was seen as little more than a curious property of certain substances that sparked when rubbed. Then, in the 1790s, Alessandro Volta began the scientific investigation that ignited an explosion of knowledge and invention. The force that once seemed inconsequential was revealed to be responsible for everything from the structure of the atom to the functioning of our brains. In harnessing its power, we have created a world of wonders—complete with roller coasters and radar, computer networks and psychopharmaceuticals. In Electric Universe, the great discoverers come to life in all their brilliance and idiosyncrasy, including the visionary Michael Faraday, who struggled against the prejudices of the British class system, and Samuel Morse, a painter who, before inventing the telegraph, ran for mayor of New York City on a platform of persecuting Catholics. Here too is Alan Turing, whose dream of a marvelous thinking machine—what we know as the computer—was met with indifference, and who ended his life in despair after British authorities forced him to undergo experimental treatments to “cure” his homosexuality. From the frigid waters of the Atlantic to the streets of Hamburg during a World War II firestorm to the interior of the human body, Electric Universe is a mesmerizing journey of discovery.

Book excerpt: This new edition of the Electric Sky covers the most important recent developments in modern astronomy. We now know that all stars and galaxies seem to be interconnected by plasma filaments. The notion that stars and galaxies live their lives in bleak isolation in empty space is shown to be wrong. The Inter Galactic Web (IGW) is now an established addition to basic astronomical knowledge. The hunt for Dark Matter has recently been dying off - this book explains why. There was never a real cause to try to find Dark Matter in the first place. The Big Bang hypothesis is wrong and this book presents understandable evidence exactly why that is so. You will read a full explanation of the two different types of solar winds. And you will see how these 'winds' effect the weather patterns at Earth's north and south poles over the course of every year. The process is an electrical one. Astronomers have failed to learn about the crucially important electrical properties of the cosmos and have chosen instead to invent a zoo of imaginary particles and forces. New elements are created on the surface of the Sun, not in far-off novae explosions. This book explains the principles of astronomy and astrophysics in a way that is understandable for any reasonably intelligent and interested reader. You do not need a degree in cosmology or higher mathmatics to be able to distinguish between basic scientific truths and the fictitious tall tales some popular science writers are putting out.

Book excerpt: NATIONAL BESTSELLER • The Pulitzer Prize–winning author of The Sixth Extinction returns to humanity’s transformative impact on the environment, now asking: After doing so much damage, can we change nature, this time to save it? RECOMMENDED BY PRESIDENT OBAMA AND BILL GATES • SHORTLISTED FOR THE WAINWRIGHT PRIZE FOR WRITING • ONE OF THE TEN BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR: The Washington Post • ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR: Time, Esquire, Smithsonian Magazine, Vulture, Publishers Weekly, Kirkus Reviews, Library Journal • “Beautifully and insistently, Kolbert shows us that it is time to think radically about the ways we manage the environment.”—Helen Macdonald, The New York Times That man should have dominion “over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth” is a prophecy that has hardened into fact. So pervasive are human impacts on the planet that it’s said we live in a new geological epoch: the Anthropocene. In Under a White Sky, Elizabeth Kolbert takes a hard look at the new world we are creating. Along the way, she meets biologists who are trying to preserve the world’s rarest fish, which lives in a single tiny pool in the middle of the Mojave; engineers who are turning carbon emissions to stone in Iceland; Australian researchers who are trying to develop a “super coral” that can survive on a hotter globe; and physicists who are contemplating shooting tiny diamonds into the stratosphere to cool the earth. One way to look at human civilization, says Kolbert, is as a ten-thousand-year exercise in defying nature. In The Sixth Extinction, she explored the ways in which our capacity for destruction has reshaped the natural world. Now she examines how the very sorts of interventions that have imperiled our planet are increasingly seen as the only hope for its salvation. By turns inspiring, terrifying, and darkly comic, Under a White Sky is an utterly original examination of the challenges we face.

Book excerpt: "A new scientific truth does not triumph by convincing its opponents and making them see the light; a new generation grows up that is familiar with it." - Max Plank "The choice is the Universe, or nothing." - H. G. Wells When the Laws of Physics are observed to have been violated, it is not a scietist's job to explain the violation by creating new forces and keeping the Laws; it is the scientist's job to question and even abandon those Laws. - Justin Sandburg "Without expansion, our observations actually become harder to explain without inventing new physics. We have to be careful in which context this is used. Expansion is consistent with General Relativity and doesn't require new physics to describe it. Accelerating expansion, on the other hand, does!" - Anonymous "Chemistry ignores everything inside the valence shell, even though the space between the electrons and the nucleus cause emission which is unique even for atoms of the same valance. I couldn't help but make the connection to the very large emission in the observational study of the Universe." - Justin Sandburg Well the future looks bright indeed! I am not sure how anyone can read that and not come away with a much richer, more fulfilling, and far more interesting view of the universe we reside in. It is all right there, in your face, and all you have to do is take a halfway decent look at it and it becomes obvious..." -Anonymous "Some form on ultra dense compact matter may be the dynamo in forming the stable jets that reform galaxies such as the "cartwheel" and dual and quad jets that we can observe. These stable jets are responsible for the evolution and form of not only their galaxy but distant galaxies. This paper is quite interesting." -Anonymous "I have read your book quickly and it deserves another read. Good effort!... to take someone from the very basics of physics and expose them to... I applaud your effort." - Anonymous "Why has it taken this long to arrive at such a logical deduction? It makes so much more sense, really." - Anonymous "The question is: what is mass really a function of? This is where ideas like electromass come in. I totally dig this idea...." -Anonymous "So we have to admit that there are no absolutes. Only differences. And it is the differences that mean things, not the similarities (although they are not completely worthless). (Funny how, as a society, we are made to conform and so minimize differences where as everything else relies on seeing differences and making use of them" -Anonymous "Time/line differentials are hardly mainstream physics." -Anonymous

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'I'm going to camp out on the land ... try and get my soul free'. So sang Joni Mitchell in 1970 on 'Woodstock'. But Woodstock is only the tip of the iceberg. Popular music festivals are one of the strikingly successful and enduring features of seasonal popular cultural consumption for young people and older generations of enthusiasts. From pop and rock to folk, jazz and techno, under stars and canvas, dancing in the streets and in the mud, the pleasures and politics of the carnival since the 1950s are discussed in this innovative and richly-illustrated collection. The Pop Festival brings scholarship in cultural studies, media studies, musicology, sociology, and history together in one volume to explore the music festival as a key event in the cultural landscape - and one of major interest to young people as festival-goers themselves and as students.
