On 14 March 1964 Richard Feynman, one of the greatest scientific thinkers of the 20th Century, delivered a lecture entitled 'The Motion of the Planets Around the Sun'. The result is a vital and absorbing account of one of the fundamental puzzles of science, and an invaluable insight into Feynman's charismatic brilliance.
Climate Change And The Energy Problem: Physical Science And Economics Perspective

Climate Change And The Energy Problem: Physical Science And Economics Perspective

This important compendium deals with the primary world problems of global warming and the coming energy crisis. In alternating chapters, it lays out the nature of the two interrelated problems, and specifies the various economic considerations. Thus, it describes the coming shortfall of fossil fuel energy in detail and then presents the economic factors governing possible solutions.Written by two world renowned academics — a physicist who writes about the nature of the problem, and an economist who discusses various scenarios and solutions, this unique must-have book highlights the problem from the point of view of a scientist and an economist.

Whether on personal health, politics, or climate change, we are constantly bombarded with more numerous 'breaking news' articles than we have time for. In such an environment, how can we tell which to read, or which is even true.Science of the Earth, Climate and Energy helps readers understand major issues that affect us individually and the world as a whole.In language that a non-scientist can follow easily, the book first explains the general principles of science, its nature and how it works, with a certain degree of emphasis on the meaning of the words 'uncertainty' and 'fact, before it goes into the related topics of the earth, its climate and energy sources at a level that does not require a background in science. Finally, the book addresses what individuals and societies can do to mitigate problems associated with both climate change and limited resources.Related Link(s)

This innovative physics textbook intended for science and engineering majors develops classical mechanics from a historical perspective. The presentation of the standard course material includes a discussion of the thought processes of the discoverers and a description of the methods by which they arrived at their theories. However the presentation proceeds logically rather than strictly chronologically, so new concepts are introduced at the natural moment. The book assumes a familiarity with calculus, includes a discussion of rigid body motion, and contains numerous thought-provoking problems. It is largely based in content on The Mechanical Universe: Introduction to Mechanics and Heat, a book designed in conjunction with a tele-course to be offered by PBS in the Fall of 1985. The advanced edition, however, does not coincide exactly with the video lessons, contains additional material, and develops the fundamental ideas introduced in the lower-level edition to a greater degree.

This 1987 second volume of the Mechanical Universe studies electricity and magnetism, their relation to each other and light, and shows how the problem of light led to the special theory of relativity. Then, it moves on to modern physics, where particles may behave like waves and where some of the great verities of Newtonian physics appear less certain. Along with the first volume, this book is based on, though independent of, a public television series broadcast in the United States. Physics is presented as a human endeavor, with historical development forming a thread throughout the text. The prerequisites are minimal, only basic algebra and trigonometry since the necessary calculus is developed in the text, with physics providing the motivation. New concepts are introduced at the natural, logical point with many historical references to place physics in a social perspective. Many topics from twentieth-century physics are included. The book is attractively illustrated and will be a stimulating alternative to other, less-thorough treatments.

This important textbook is based on, though independent of, an educational TV series The Mechanical Universe broadcast on public television in the United States. Its aim is to guide students and general readers to an understanding of how the physical world works; physics is presented as a human endeavour, with historical development forming a thread throughout the text. The prerequisites are minimal, only basic algebra and trigonometry since the necessary calculus is developed in the text, with physics providing the motivation. New concepts are introduced at the natural, logical point with many historical references to place physics in a social perspective. Many topics from twentieth-century physics are included, for example energy, low temperature physics, relativity and black holes. The book is attractively and profusely illustrated and will be welcomed by students and also by general readers for whom this will be a stimulating alternative to other, less-thorough treatments.

Our gift of creativity and mastery of the written and spoken word binds Us by duty to share with the world what GOD inspires in Us. After an overlong hiatus, David L. Weeks returns with a new book of original poems, entitled DISTANT DRUMS The collection represents the culmination of an over thirty-five-year poetry writing journey...conscious, inspirational, spiritual, love, and erotic poems-raw, explicit, uncensored. Featuring never-before-shared poems like, Bring Back The Old Days, Make Love To You, When The Sun Sets. And fan favorites such as Jazz, Back To The Still Waters, Purple, Light Your Fire, Feel My Nature Rise, La Boriqua, You Cannot Wear My Crown, and many more. The book's cover evokes memories of David's days as a youth. Reminiscent of artistic designs of reggae albums of the '70s and' 80s...like Journey To Addis, Uprising, The Harder They Come, and Man In The Hills, to name a few. Imagine "Distant Drums" lying on your coffee table, not just a book but also a visual work of art. It's One Book You Can Judge By Its Cover "In African culture and tradition, one of the ancient functions of The Drums was to send messages, sometimes across great Distances. Today, drums still hold profound, spiritual, and venerable importance in the African way of life-on the continent and the diaspora. It is within this Ancient Tradition that David presents this book of Messages. Distant Drums "Conquering Lion Enterprise, Publishing.2021

With the country on the brink of World War III, a new president takes office to put forth new changes in military policies. Due to these policies and lack of health benefits General Holland dies. These changes have affected all branches of the armed forces and country as a whole. And at the rate things are going the military will soon no longer comply with their Commander and Chief. Four army rangers couldn't stand by and see everything they believe that was good and honorable, be shoved aside, because of Congress' approval of the President's Bill. That's when they took matters into their own hands. Some might call it treason; whereas, others might call it patriotism. You decide.

L'oeuvre de David l'Invincible et la transmission de la pensée grecque dans la tradition arménienne et syriaque
David, a member of the Platonic school in Alexandria in the sixth century, is credited with several commentaries on Aristotle’s logic: those commentaries, and their Armenian translations, form the subject of this book. An introduction, which discusses David and his place in the Greek and the Armenian traditions, is followed by a series of studies of the relations between the Greek texts and their Armenian translations: the aims are, first, to assess the value of the translations for the constitution of the original Greek, and secondly, to consider the ways in which the Armenian translations adapted the texts to suit their new readership. More generally, the book is concerned with the ways in which Greek thought was exported abroad—to Armenia and to Syria: it is required reading for anyone who is interested in the circulation of ideas between east and west. Contributors include: Sen Arevshatyan, Jonathan Barnes, Valentina Calzolari, Henri Hugonnard-Roche, Gohar Muradyan, Michael Papazian, Manea Shirinian, Clive Sweeting, Albert Stepanyan, Aram Topchyan.
