The Einstein Paradox

  • Type: Book

  • Published: 1997

  • Publisher: Basic Books

In this marvelous book, the reader is introduced to the bizarre concepts of modern physics as the only way to solve a casebook of otherwise impossibly paradoxical crimes. Murder on a royal train. Divers dead of heatstroke at the bottom of an icy sea. An epidemic of insanity among the world's top scientists. This is the story of the great paradigm shifts of science, told as never before: in Sherlock Holmes adventures set amid the grandeur and squalor of Victorian London. Holmes, Watson, and other beloved characters created by Arthur Conan Doyle are challenged by mysteries, each of which hinges on a scientific paradox or principle. Colin Bruce has recreated the atmosphere of the original Sherlock Holmes stories to give a truly compulsive read. You won't even realize you've learned something until it's too late!

Schrödinger's Rabbits

For the better part of a century, attempts to explain what was really going on in the quantum world seemed doomed to failure. But recent technological advances have made the question both practical and urgent. A brilliantly imaginative group of physicists at Oxford University have risen to the challenge. This is their story. At long last, there is a sensible way to think about quantum mechanics. The new view abolishes the need to believe in randomness, long-range spooky forces, or conscious observers with mysterious powers to collapse cats into a state of life or death. But the new understanding comes at a price: we must accept that we live in a multiverse wherein countless versions of reali...

EMI/EMC Computational Modeling Handbook

The application of computational electromagnetics to practical EMI/EMC engineering is an emerging technology. Because of the increased complexity in EMI/EMC issues resulting from advancements in electronics and telecommunications, it is no longer possible to rely exclusively on traditional techniques and tools to solve the growing list of electronic engineering design problems. EMI/EMC Computational Modeling Handbook introduces modeling and simulation of electromagnetics to real-world EMI/EMC engineering. It combines the essentials of electromagnetics, computational techniques, and actual EMI/EMC applications. Included are such popular full-wave computational modeling techniques as the Method of Moments, Finite-Difference Time Domain Technique, Finite Element Method, and several others. The authors have included a myriad of applications for computers, telecommunications, consumer electronics, medical electronics, and military uses. EMI/EMC Computational Modeling Handbook is an invaluable reference work for practicing EMI/EMC engineers, electronic design engineers, and any engineer involved in computational electromagnetics.

The Strange Non-death of Neo-liberalism

The Strange Non-death of Neo-liberalism

The financial crisis seemed to present a fundamental challenge to neo liberalism, the body of ideas that have constituted the political orthodoxy of most advanced economies in recent decades. Colin Crouch argues in this book that it will shrug off this challenge. The reason is that while neo liberalism seems to be about free markets, in practice it is concerned with the dominance over public life of the giant corporation. This has been intensified, not checked, by the recent financial crisis and acceptance that certain financial corporations are ‘too big to fail'. Although much political debate remains preoccupied with conflicts between the market and the state, the impact of the corporati...
