Materials, Matter and Particles: A Brief History
ISBN: 9781848164604 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 328 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This book traces the history of ideas about the nature of matter and also the way that mankind has used material resources that the world offers. Starting with the ideas of ancient civilizations that air, earth, fire and water were the basic ingredients of all matter, it traces the development of the science of chemistry beginning within the ranks of the alchemists. First, the idea of elements grew and then the atomic nature of matter was verified. Physicists had entered the scene, showing the nature of atoms in terms of fundamental particles and then introducing the concept of wave-particle...

On the Origin of Planets: By Means of Natural Simple Processes
ISBN: 9781848165984 / Angielski / Twarda / 2010 / 500 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The book begins with a historical review of four major theories for the origin of the Solar System in particular, or of planets in general, which highlight the major problems that need to be solved by any plausible theory. In many theories, including that which form the major theme of this book, the formation of planets and stars is intimately linked, so four chapters are devoted to the processes that can be described as the birth, life and death of stars.Recent observations that have revealed the existence of planets around many Sun-like stars are described in detail, followed by a clear...

Everyday Probability and Statistics: Health, Elections, Gambling and War
ISBN: 9781848160316 / Angielski / Twarda / 2008 / 236 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Probability and statistics impinge on the life of the average person in a variety of ways — as is suggested by the title of this book. Very often, information is provided that is factually accurate but intended to present a biased view. This book presents the important results of probability and statistics without making heavy mathematical demands on the reader. It should enable an intelligent reader to properly assess statistical information and to understand that the same information can be presented in different ways.

The three greatest scientific mysteries, which remain poorly understood, are the origin of the universe, the origin of life and the development of consciousness. This book describes the processes preceding the Big Bang, the creation of matter, the concentration of that matter into stars and planets, the development of simple life forms and the theory of evolution that has given higher life forms, including mankind.There are many popular and excellent science books that present various aspects of science. However, this book follows a narrow scientific pathway from the Big Bang to mankind, and...

Fundamentals of Imaging, The: From Particles to Galaxies
ISBN: 9781848166851 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 376 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. It is through images that we understand the form and function of material objects, from the fundamental particles that are the constituents of matter to galaxies that are the constituents of the Universe. Imaging must be thought of in a flexible way as varying from just the detection of objects — a blip on a screen representing an aircraft or a vapour trail representing the passage of an exotic particle — to displaying the fine detail in the eye of an insect or the arrangement of atoms within or on the surface of a solid. The range of imaging tools, both in the type of wave...

Michael Woolfson and Fan Hai-fu describe all the available methods of solving crystal structure and how they are used. In addition to traditional means such as the use of the Patterson function and isomorphous replacement, and the direct methods, the authors include techniques that use anomalous scattering and observations from multiple-beam scattering. The fundamental physics and mathematical analyses are fully explained. Practical aspects of applying the methods are also emphasized.

The Contradictions of Austerity: The Socio-Economic Costs of the Neoliberal Baltic Model
ISBN: 9781138648852 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The great financial crisis of 2008 and the ensuing global economic and financial turmoil have launched a search for "models" for recovery. The advocates of austerity present the Baltic States as countries that through discipline and sacrifice showed the way out of crisis. They have proposed the "Baltic model" of radical public sector cuts, wage reductions, labor market reforms and reductions in living standards for other troubled Eurozone countries to emulate. Yet, the reality of the Baltic "austerity fix" has been neither fully accepted by its peoples, nor is it fully a success. This book...

The Origin and Evolution of the Solar System
ISBN: 9780750304573 / Angielski / Twarda / 2000 / 420 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The origin of the solar system has been a matter for speculation for many centuries, and since the time of Newton it has been possible to apply scientific principles to the problem. A succession of theories - starting with that of Pierre Laplace in 1796 - have gained general acceptance, only to fall from favour due to their contradiction in some basic scientific principle or new heavenly observation.
