A wealth of material on practically every aspect of astronomy, beginning from the first principles. It is quite unique in providing a level of scientific accuracy and detail to be found in no other introductory book, including coverage of instruments, theory, observation, space exploration and cosmology. Encyclopaedic in its breadth, the book still contains in-depth explanations of the underlying theories. The illustrations - many of them colour photographs - animate the text, itself so clear and concise that it will fascinate readers of every discipline. Winner of the Rapportryers Prize for "most meritorious popular science book".

From the host and cocreator of PBS’s Journey of the Universe, a fresh look at how the rich collision between science and spirituality has influenced contemporary consciousness The understanding that the universe has been expanding since its fiery beginning 14 billion years ago and has developed into stars, galaxies, life, and human consciousness is one of the most significant in human history. It is taught throughout the world and has become our common creation story for nearly every culture. In terms of the universe’s development, we humans are not only economic, religious, or political beings. At the most fundamental level, we are cosmological beings. Cosmogenesis is one of the greatest discoveries in human history, and it continues to have a profound impact on humanity. And yet most science books do not explore the effects it has had on our individual minds. In Cosmogenesis, Brian Thomas Swimme narrates the same cosmological events that we agree are fact but offers a feature unlike all other writings on this topic. He tells the story of the universe while simultaneously telling the story of the storyteller. Swimme describes how the impact of this new story deconstructed his mind then reassembled it, offering us a glimpse into how cosmogenesis has transformed our understanding of both the universe and the evolution of human consciousness itself.

Unveiling Cosmos: Exploring the Mysteries of the Universe is an immersive journey through the vast and enigmatic expanse of our universe. It delves deep into the heart of space, time, and existence, weaving together the intricate threads of cosmological science, philosophy, and the inherent human curiosity. Beginning with the Big Bang and moving through the evolution of galaxies, stars, and planets, this magnum opus explores not just the known, but also the unknown frontiers. Readers are guided through black holes, the principles of quantum mechanics, the enigma of dark matter, and the revolutionary idea of the holographic universe. Yet, at its core, the book is not just about the universe; it's about us. It probes the profound questions that arise when we gaze at the night sky: What is our place in the cosmic tapestry? Are we alone? What does the universe tell us about the nature of reality and our existence within it? Beyond its scientific depth, *Unveiling Cosmos* is rich with philosophical reflections, touching on themes of consciousness, perception, and the interconnectedness of all things. It's an invitation to challenge our perceptions, to push the boundaries of what we believe is possible, and to marvel at the intricate beauty of the cosmos. As much a work of art as it is a scientific exploration, *Unveiling Cosmos* is a testament to humanity's unyielding quest for knowledge and our eternal drive to understand the world beyond our blue planet. It's a book for dreamers, thinkers, and anyone who has ever gazed at the stars and wondered.

Entropy and Information is a science/philosophical book. The author considers the function Entropy as the tool of the Second Law of Thermodynamics, subsequently applicable to link different areas. Entropy and Information: Unveiling the Mysterious Stuff Permeating the Universe is both holistic and interdisciplinary. I think it brings a new scope on how to face reality. It starts with basic concepts for a rationale on Entropy. Entropy is placed in context with Information Theory, a great milestone contributed by Shannon in 1948. Basically, Entropy gives us estimation on how elements or constituents interrelate in systems, the author says. As principles, entropy and information intimately deal with the human mind. Thus they are paramount in evolution, stupidity, memetics, societies and cultures. The final parts of the book are reflections and criticisms of so-called modern medicine, particularly for its uncouth business orientation. This book fills a gap in interdisciplinary science and is sure to be highly valued by a vast array of readers. Entropy, an old and poorly understood natural function, can be applied to many dimensional scenarios and areas of knowledge.About the Author: Paralternativecelus is an M.D. and a freelance philosopher interested in the process of knowledge and diagnosis. He is constantly challenging the status quo of medicine. For him, medicine is far from being a science, as some people may contrarily believe. Physical principles must be incorporated into health for breakthroughs to happen. Publisher's website: http: //sbpra.com/Paralternativecelsu

What if the Universe were to send you frequent reminders of the absolute power you have over your life? Author Mike Dooley, an interpreter for the Universe, has done exactly that in Notes from the Universe—a collection of empowering, invaluable truths that can be read front to back or opened at random. This first book in the Notes from the Universe trilogy teaches its readers to live a life far richer than they had previously thought imaginable. The Universe is here to remind us that we are in control. To have the life you desire, all you have to do is ask. The secret to manifesting change is not focusing on the how but instead, the end result of what you’re after—the kind of life you want. Then, once you are truly focused, the Universe will conspire on your behalf. Author Mike Dooley has turned over every stone, knocked on every door, and followed every impulse. He has immersed himself in the truths he needed to hear most; these were the kind of lessons he wrote about in his weekly emails. What started in 1998 as a little poem sent out once a week to 38 email addresses has evolved into an inspiring anecdote delivered to over 300,000 subscribers from 169 countries, each receiving a new note from the Universefive days a week. Mike Dooley serves as an interpreter for the Universe. Notes from the Universe begins a three-volume set that is brimful with powerful affirmations that will have you thinking positively, feeling confident, and walking the path to personal success. When readers discover the truths the Universe is unveiling in Notes from the Universe,they will begin living happier, more fulfilling lives.
