Book Synopsis The Lighter Side of Gravity by : Jayant Vishnu Narlikar
Download or read book The Lighter Side of Gravity written by Jayant Vishnu Narlikar and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1996-10-03 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gravity is the most enigmatic of all known basic forces in nature. Yet it controls everything from the motion of ocean tides to the expansion of the entire Universe. Many books use technical jargon and high-powered maths to explain what gravity is all about. In The Lighter Side of Gravity, the presentation is beautifully clear and completely non-technical. Familiar analogies, interesting anecdotes and numerous illustrations are used throughout to get across subtle effects and difficult points. The coverage is, however, comprehensive and makes no compromise with accuracy. This second edition has been brought completely up to date and expanded to include the discovery of gigantic gravitational lenses in space, the findings of the COBE satellite, the detection of MACHOS, the investigations of the very early Universe and other new ideas in cosmology. In short, this lucid and stimulating book presents 'the lighter side' of the intriguing phenomena of 'gravity' to the student and general reader.

Download or read book Richard Wagner written by Terry Quinn and published by Amadeus. This book was released on 2013 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: (Amadeus). Richard Wagner: The Lighter Side appeals to classical music and opera enthusiasts in general, but particularly the many thousands of members of the 135 Wagner Societies around the world. There are many books about every aspect of Wagner's life and works, but none has focused on the trivia, the interesting facts, anecdotes, and quotations about the man and his operas. For more than twenty years, Terry Quinn has collected information on each of Wagner's 13 completed operas and the difficulties encountered in staging them; famous Wagnerian directors, conductors, and singers; key persons in the composer's life, especially the women, not to mention the dysfunctional Wagner family; Wagner's visits to London; the festival and theater he created in Bavaria; and a great deal more. Also included are interviews with current Wagnerian scholars. Richard Wagner: The Lighter Side contains more than 300 tidbits and features, ranging from a few paragraphs to several pages. The light side of the book is immediately apparent via its lively headings, as well as its fascinating tales of the fanatical enthusiasts who travel the world to see Wagner's operas performed. Illustrations include photographs, dozens of contemporary caricatures, beautiful postage stamps on Wagnerian subjects, and other reproductions of ephemera.
Book Synopsis The Lighter Side of Life by : J Christopher Eigel
Download or read book The Lighter Side of Life written by J Christopher Eigel and published by Liberty Hill Publishing. This book was released on 2019-05-15 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Anyone from baby boomers to millennials who appreciates sarcasm will laugh out loud at the stories and often relatable life experiences of Eigel, as they are representative of American life. This is the first book in the ToiletureTM Series. Toileture is a term Eigel has coined that defines the stories as: Literature in short form that can be read during one "sitting". These anecdotes and stories are not moderated by political correctness. So, enjoy and take no offense, for certainly none is intended. As Mark Twain famously opined, "Life is short, break the rules. Forgive quickly, kiss slowly. Love truly. Laugh uncontrollably. And never regret anything that makes you smile." [faint] Praise for THE LIGHTER SIDE OF LIFE "This book was not reviewed nor read by JEFF FOXWORTHY. He probably would not have liked it." --Anonymous "Eigel dishonors the legacy of Star Trek and tarnishes the iconic uniform of a Starship Captain." --What WILLIAM SHATNER likely would say, had he seen the Author photo "I love these stories, they are so well crafted. I don't like the drinking parts though; why do you have to tell those parts?" --SUZANNE, Eigel's Mother "I haven't read these yet... I lived them, why do I have to read them?" --MAUREEN, Eigel's Wife Eigel grew up loving the likes of Lewis Grizzard and Paul Harvey and having a passion for the written word. Starting in 1996, he began writing an annual Christmas letter to be the antithesis of the typical letters. Self-deprecating humor and sarcasm were the impetus of his stories: real, embellished, or made up out of whole cloth. Those and many more are now compiled in this first book of Toileture. In addition to this book, he has written a biographical novella about his Father-in-law's experiences up to and through WWII, including the remarkable reuniting of four separated brothers following the Battle of the Bulge titled: 18 Hours in Liège--a Soldier's Story.
Book Synopsis Lighter Side of Adaptive Optics by : Robert K. Tyson
Download or read book Lighter Side of Adaptive Optics written by Robert K. Tyson and published by SPIE Press. This book was released on 2009 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Adaptive optics has been under development for well over 40 years. It is an indisputable necessity for all major ground-based astronomical telescopes and is the foundation for laser and wavefront sensor design. 'Lighter Side of Adaptive Optics' is a nontechnical explanation of optics, the atmosphere, and the technology for "untwinkling" the stars. While interweaving a fictional romantic relationship as an analogy to adaptive optics, and inserting satire, humor, and philosophical rants, Tyson makes a difficult scientific topic understandable. The "why" and "how" of adaptive optics has never been more enjoyable.
Book Synopsis The Lighter Side of Yoga by : Mike Nevitt
Download or read book The Lighter Side of Yoga written by Mike Nevitt and published by . This book was released on 2022-04-19 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the sloppy guy who farts during yoga class to Zoom yoga participants sneaking wine and cheese off camera to the "how many challenges can you do in one month" challenge to those people who just can't help keeping one eye open during meditation sessions, The Lighter Side of Yoga pokes fun at the entire yoga and mindfulness industry through Mike Nevitt's biting, satiric comics. The cartoons utilize humor, irony, and exaggeration to ridicule the falseness and egoistic motivations that can exist in the mind/body/spirit groups and yoga communities. The true-to-life situations are based on Nevitt's experiences and observations as a full-time yoga and meditation teacher for over twenty-five years. Yoga and mindfulness practitioners will laugh and smile knowingly as they recognize the all-too-familiar scenarios which Nevitt skewers throughout the book.

And your mother will never stop asking you if you need to go to the bathroom, before you leave the house. Well, do you? Francesca on Closet Wars - My mom is a great dresser. Mostly because she's wearing my clothes. Lisa on Aging Gracefully - My sex drive is in reverse, I have more whiskers than my cat, and my estrogen replacement is tequila.

Book Synopsis Shattered Chasm by : Michael W Nicholson
Download or read book Shattered Chasm written by Michael W Nicholson and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2021-08-24 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Global perceptions about Liberia tend to cover up its lighter side-or, at least, the very positive feelings so many people have had about living and working in the country. This book is about the professional and personal experiences of a U.S. government economist living in Liberia from 2012 to 2014. Embracing the concept of the "chasm" of culture, politics, and history between citizens of Western countries and the poorest of the poor, its central thesis holds that all of us ultimately do live in the same world. The collected stories engage the lifestyle of an expat aid worker while raging against the culture of charity, steeped in pity, that often feeds the machine of development work that makes that lifestyle a cliché. Pity is demoralizing and dehumanizing. Don't pity other people, ever.
