Food and the City in Europe Since 1800
ISBN: 9781138274198 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 280 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This fascinating volume examines the impact that rapid urbanization has had upon diets and food systems throughout Western Europe over the past two centuries. Bringing together studies from across the continent, it stresses the fundamental links between key changes in European social history and food systems, food cultures and food politics. Contributors respond to a number of important questions, including: when and how did local food production cease to be sufficient for the city and when did improved transport conditions and liberal commercial relations replace local by supra-regional food...

Food History: A Feast of the Senses in Europe, 1750 to the Present
ISBN: 9781032006383 / Angielski / Miękka / 2023 / 214 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book elevates the senses to a central role in the study of food history as the traditional focus upon food types, quantities, and nutritional values is incomplete without some recognition of smell, touch, sight, hearing, and taste. It is ideal for scholars of food history, studies and culture, as well as social and cultural historians.

Conjuring the Universe: The Origins of the Laws of Nature
ISBN: 9780198813385 / Angielski / Miękka / 2020 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The marvellous complexity of the Universe emerges from several deep laws and a handful of fundamental constants that fix its shape, scale, and destiny. Peter Atkins identifies the minimum decisions that would be needed for the Universe to behave as it does, arguing that the laws of Nature can spring from very little. Or perhaps from nothing at all.

Physical Chemistry: A Very Short Introduction
ISBN: 9780199689095 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 152 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. With the development of a variety of exciting new areas of research involving computational chemistry, nano- and smart materials, and applications of the recently discovered graphene, there can be no doubt that physical chemistry is a vitally important field. It is also perceived as the most daunting branch of chemistry, being necessarily grounded in physics and mathematics and drawing as it does on quantum mechanics, thermodynamics, and statistical thermodynamics.
With his typical clarity and hardly a formula in sight, Peter Atkins' Very Short Introduction explores the... With the development of a variety of exciting new areas of research involving computational chemistry, nano- and smart materials, and applications of ...

The Laws of Thermodynamics: A Very Short Introduction
ISBN: 9780199572199 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 120 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The laws of thermodynamics drive everything that happens in the universe. From the sudden expansion of a cloud of gas to the cooling of hot metal--everything is moved or restrained by four simple laws. Written by Peter Atkins, one of the world's leading authorities on thermodynamics, this powerful and compact introduction explains what these four laws are and how they work, using accessible language and virtually no mathematics. Guiding the reader a step at a time, Atkins begins with Zeroth (so named because the first two laws were well established before scientists realized that a third law,...

Reactions: The private life of atoms
ISBN: 9780199668809 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 8-10 dni roboczych. Illustrated with remarkable new full-color images--indeed, one or more on every page--and written by one of the world's leading authorities on the subject, Reactions offers a compact, pain-free tour of the inner workings of chemistry.
Reactions begins with the chemical formula almost everyone knows--the formula for water, H2O--a molecule with an "almost laughably simple chemical composition." But Atkins shows that water is also rather miraculous--it is the only substance whose solid form is less dense than its liquid (hence ice floats in water)--and incredibly central to many chemical...

Twentieth century Europe went through a dramatic transition from low income populations experiencing hunger and nutritionally inadequate diets, to the recent era of over-consumption and growing numbers of overweight and obese people. By examining the trends in food history from case studies across Europe, this book offers a historical context to explain how and why this transition has occurred and what we can learn in order to try and address the vitally important issues arising from obesity in contemporary Europe.

Galileo, one of whose fingers is preserved in a vessel displayed in Florence, provided much of the impetus for modern science, pointing the way out of medieval ignorance. In this brilliant account of the central ideas of contemporary science, Peter Atkins celebrates the effectiveness of Galileo's symbolic finger for revealing the nature of our universe, our world, and ourselves.
Galileo's Finger takes the reader on an extraordinary journey that embraces the ten central ideas of current science. "By a great idea," writes Peter Atkins, "I mean a simple concept of great...
