The New Atheism: Taking a Stand for Science and Reason
ISBN: 9781591027515 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 282 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In recent years a number of bestselling books have forcefully argued that belief in God can no longer be defended on rational or empirical grounds, and that the scientific worldview has rendered obsolete the traditional beliefs held by Christianity, Judaism, and Islam. The authors of these books Richard Dawkins, Daniel Dennett, Sam Harris, Christopher Hitchens, and Victor J. Stenger have come to be known as the "New Atheists." Predictably, their works have been controversial and attracted a good deal of critical reaction.
In this new book, Victor J. Stenger, whose God: The Failed... In recent years a number of bestselling books have forcefully argued that belief in God can no longer be defended on rational or empirical grounds, an...

God and the Atom
ISBN: 9781616147532 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 420 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This history of atomism, from Democritus to the recent discovery of the Higgs boson, chronicles one of the most successful scientific hypotheses ever devised. Originating separately in both ancient Greece and India, the concept of the atom persisted for centuries, despite often running afoul of conventional thinking. Until the twentieth century, no direct evidence for atoms existed. Today it is possible to actually observe atoms using a scanning tunneling microscope.
In this book, physicist Victor J. Stenger makes the case that, in the final analysis, atoms and the void are all that... This history of atomism, from Democritus to the recent discovery of the Higgs boson, chronicles one of the most successful scientific hypotheses ever ...

God: The Failed Hypothesis: How Science Shows That God Does Not Exist
ISBN: 9781591026525 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 310 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Throughout history, arguments for and against the existence of God have been largely confined to philosophy and theology, while science has sat on the sidelines. Despite the fact that science has revolutionized every aspect of human life and greatly clarified our understanding of the world, somehow the notion has arisen that it has nothing to say about the possibility of a supreme being, which much of humanity worships as the source of all reality. This book contends that, if God exists, some evidence for this existence should be detectable by scientific means, especially considering the...

Quantum Gods: Creation, Chaos, and the Search for Cosmic Consciousness
ISBN: 9781591027133 / Angielski / Twarda / 2009 / 292 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Does quantum mechanics show a connection between the human mind and the cosmos? Are our brains tuned into a "cosmic consciousness" that pervades the universe enabling us to make our own reality? Do quantum mechanics and chaos theory provide a place for God to act in the world without violating natural laws?
Many popular books make such claims and argue that key developments in twentieth-century physics, such as the uncertainty principle and the butterfly effect, support the notion that God or a universal mind acts upon material reality. Physicist Victor J. Stenger examines these... Does quantum mechanics show a connection between the human mind and the cosmos? Are our brains tuned into a "cosmic consciousness" that pervades the u...

The Fallacy of Fine-Tuning: Why the Universe Is Not Designed for Us
ISBN: 9781616144432 / Angielski / Twarda / 2011 / 352 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. A number of authors have noted that if some physical parameters were slightly changed, the universe could no longer support life, as we know it. This implies that life depends sensitively on the physics of our universe. Does this "fine-tuning" of the universe suggest that a creator god intentionally calibrated the initial conditions of the universe such that life on earth and the evolution of humanity would eventually emerge? In his in-depth and highly accessible discussion of this fascinating and controversial topic, the author looks at the evidence and comes to the opposite conclusion. He...

God and the Multiverse: Humanity's Expanding View of the Cosmos
ISBN: 9781616149703 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 448 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Cosmologists have reasons to believe that the vast universe in which we live is just one of an endless number of other universes within a "multiverse" a mind-boggling array that may extend indefinitely in space and endlessly in both the past and the future. Victor Stenger reviews the key developments in the history of science that led to the current consensus view of astrophysicists, taking pains to explain essential concepts and discoveries in accessible terminology. The author shows that science s emerging understanding of the multiverse consisting of trillions upon trillions of galaxies is...

Has Science Found God?: The Latest Results in the Search for Purpose in the Universe
ISBN: 9781591020189 / Angielski / Twarda / 2003 / 384 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In the past few years a number of scientists have claimed that there is credible scientific evidence for the existence of God. In 1998 Newsweek went so far as to proclaim on its cover, "Science Finds God." Is this true? Are scientists close to solving the greatest of all mysteries? Physicist Victor J. Stenger delves into this fascinating question from a skeptical point of view in this lucid and engrossing presentation of the key scientific facts.
Stenger critically reviews the attempts of many contemporary theologians and some scientists to resurrect failed natural theologies in new... In the past few years a number of scientists have claimed that there is credible scientific evidence for the existence of God. In 1998 Newsweek went s...

In a shocking true-crime narrative that reads like a thriller, former police officer, former detective, and mystery writer Stacy Dittrich tells eighteen stories about cops who kill. From the brutal to the bizarre, the senseless to the extreme, these men and women abused their power, took human life, and are now (except for one) paying the consequences. Some killed for love, others for money, and still others because of seemingly trivial personality conflicts. Dittrich profiles, among others:
- New Orleans cop Antoinette Frank, who brutally murdered three innocent people, including a... In a shocking true-crime narrative that reads like a thriller, former police officer, former detective, and mystery writer Stacy Dittrich tells eighte...
