Masks of the Universe: Changing Ideas on the Nature of the Cosmos
ISBN: 9780521773515 / Angielski / Twarda / 342 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In Masks of the Universe, Edward Harrison brings together fundamental scientific, philosophical and religious issues in cosmology and raises thought provoking questions. Philosophical issues dominated cosmology in the ancient world. Theological issues ranked foremost in the Middle Ages; astronomy and the physical sciences have taken over in more recent times. Yet every attempt to grasp the true nature of the universe creates a new "mask," People have always pitied the universes of their ancestors, believing that their generation has at last discovered the "real" universe. Do we now stand at...

Cosmic Entity: A Timeless Perception of the Universe
ISBN: 9780595301256 / Angielski / Miękka / 120 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Sometime in the distant past, some fourteen billion years ago, all that is and all that was burst into creation in a tumultuous event. Time and space had no meaning before this genesis event that sparked creation.
"Cosmic Entity" describes how space and time--the universe--came from nothing--a perfect balance of positive and negative energy. All matter that exists today, from the rings of Saturn to the dirt beneath your feet, was created from the seething fireball when the infant universe was less than one second old. This raw material existed in the form of protons (or hydrogen). "Cosmic...

Cosmic Alignment: With the Cosmic Mind and the Cosmic Pattern
ISBN: 9780595317707 / Angielski / Miękka / 140 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Ever notice how a spiral galaxy like our own resembles a hurricane? That is because they both are formed and function in ways that are similar. Similar enough so that if we align ourselves with the galaxy and the "Cosmic Alignment," we align ourselves also with the forces that give rise to hurricanes. A calm as in the eye of a storm, the slowing of time as in black holes, which exist at the center of our galaxy; and brainstorms, which give rise to new ideas and solutions, are all attributed to some forms of meditation and the cosmic alignment. Come explore these ideas and more fascinating...

Project Genesis: Decoding the Universe
ISBN: 9780595344901 / Angielski / Miękka / 56 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The author stops at nothing as ludicrous. He would actually attempt to connect why he brushes his teeth in the morning to events that took place in the formation of the solar system billions of years ago. He may not be successful, or he may, it depends on what the reader believes. There is also a unique mathematical reference system that enables the reader to make his or her own calculations with ease.
