The main theme of the book is to relate ideas of quantum fluctuations (expressed via Fisher information for example, or diffusion processes, or fractal structures, or particle creation and annihilation, or whatever) in terms of the so called quantum potential (which arises most conspicuously in deBroglie-Bohm theories).

This book about wisdom brings to life a poetic voice. It springs from the lived-experience of a healer who, like many healers in all wisdom traditions, uses poetry as a vehicle to take us into a sacred space, where we gain the power to remain cool in the eye of a storm. Dr. Carroll puts in plain words how to take on the thousand and one challenges of life and hands over a medicine for life to heal us when we are confronted with illness, death, and dying.

The book surveys mathematical relations between classical and quantum mechanics, gravity, time and thermodynamics from various points of view and many sources (with appropriate attribution). The emergence theme is developed with an emphasis on the meaning via mathematics. A background theme of Bohemian mechanics and connections to the quantum equivalence principle of Matone et al. is also developed in great detail. Some original work relating the quantum potential and Ricci flow is also included.

Diamino-carbenes are viewed as an alternative to the ubiquitous phosphine class of ligands, and are occasionally viewed as a substitute for ligands that coordinate via nitrogen. Throughout this book several classes of newly developed carbene precursors are presented. The work describes the generation and application of N-heterocyclic carbene derived metal complexes to a range of common organic transformations. This book opens with two distinct introductory reviews. The first focuses on recent developments in the generation and application of NHC ligands. The second is concerned with the...

Charge through the turnstiles of this collection of personal stories about baseball's greatest ballpark and the sacred space it occupies in the hearts of Cubs fans and the soul of Wrigleyville. With contributors like Bob Costas, Rick Sutcliffe and Steve Stone, this informal oral history salutes the legacy that has made Wrigley such an unforgettable part of baseball and Chicago for the last century. These one hundred stories reflect the variety of millions of Cubs fans around the world, from those whose relationship with the Friendly Confines has lasted a lifetime to those who are taking their...
