On the Origin of Planets: By Means of Natural Simple Processes
ISBN: 9781848165991 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 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...

A Dialogue Concerning the Two Chief Models of Planet Formation
ISBN: 9781786342720 / Angielski / Twarda / 2017 / 248 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The Nebula Theory, at present the standard model of planet formation, proposes that a star and planets are derived from a single spinning nebula. Woolfson here introduces an alternative, the Capture Theory, in which planets are produced from a protostar tidally disrupted by a condensed star which 'captures' most of the formed planets into orbits.

Resonance: Applications in Physical Science
ISBN: 9781783265381 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 260 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This book explores a large number of resonance effects that occur both in everyday life and in scientific contexts. It is a topic that provides a cross-link between many branches of science and shows how a single scientific principle can manifest itself in many, apparently disparate, ways.Resonance covers fields as diverse as civil engineering in relation to the safety of bridges, the quality of sound from musical instruments, the behaviour of electrical circuits, lasers, the orbits of solar-system bodies, the scattering of X-rays from atoms and the exploration of the structures of molecules,...

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...

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.
