The River of Time
Can we change the past? The surprising answer to this question can be found in the final chapters of this book. Examining the history of the study of time and presenting in detail the modern state of physical research on the subject, this book is a superb overview of a fascinating subject. The figures who have helped to shape our views on time are presented as real people, in the context of their own times and struggles: from Socrates' troubles in Athens, to the experiences of physicists under the former Soviet Union. In addition Novikov details his own experiences with great Russian and Western physicists, such as Sakharov, Zeldovich, Rees and Hawking. Details of modern theories in fields such as the possibility of time machines, anomalous flows of time (at black or white holes) and the possible source of The River of Time are described with authority and clarity.
Black Holes and the Universe
A popular account of the properties and significance of black holes.
Research Methodology
Research Methodology: From Philosophy of Science to Research Design distinguishes itself from many other works devoted to research methodology and the philosophy of science in its integrated approach towards scientific research, which is regarded as the scientific project on all levels from philosophy of science to research design.

Leather & Lies
“There’s nothing I wouldn’t do for you, Hayden. Nothing.” All I wanted was to be home in my pajamas…instead, I’m at a club with my best friend. When she bets me I won’t talk to the leather-wearing snack on the dance floor, I hop off my high-horse to prove her wrong. The next thing I know, I’m kissing a bad-boy biker in the dark. Bones makes me want to throw out my good-girl rulebook…and my panties too. He doesn’t belong in my world, but when I see Bones in a tuxedo charming my upper-class, matchmaking mother, I start to think he and I could have a future together. But then there’s an attempt on my life. Now I’ll have to marry a man from the wrong side of the tracks for protection... I never asked him to make the ultimate sacrifice, but to keep me alive, that’s just what my Tarnished Angel is willing to do… From Wall Street Journal and USA Today Bestselling author Emma Slate comes the next interconnected standalone in the Tarnished Angels Motorcycle Club Series.
Black Hole Physics
It is not an exaggeration to say that one of the most exciting predictions of Einstein's theory of gravitation is that there may exist "black holes": putative objects whose gravitational fields are so strong that no physical bodies or signals can break free of their pull and escape. The proof that black holes do exist, and an analysis of their properties, would have a significance going far beyond astrophysics. Indeed, what is involved is not just the discovery of yet another even if extremely remarkable, astro physical object, but a test of the correctness of our understanding of the properties of space and time in extremely strong gravitational fields. Theoretical research into the propert...
Pillars of Computer Science
The Person 1 Boris Abramovich Trakhtenbrot ( ) - his Hebrew given name is Boaz ( ) - is universally admired as a founding - ther and long-standing pillar of the discipline of computer science. He is the ?eld's preeminent distinguished researcher and a most illustrious trailblazer and disseminator. He is unmatched in combining farsighted vision, unfaltering c- mitment, masterful command of the ?eld, technical virtuosity, aesthetic expr- sion, eloquent clarity, and creative vigor with humility and devotion to students and colleagues. For over half a century, Trakhtenbrot has been making seminal contributions to virtually all of the central aspects of theoretical computer science, inaugur- ing numerous new areas of investigation. He has displayed an almost prophetic ability to foresee directions that are destined to take center stage, a decade or morebeforeanyoneelsetakesnotice.Hehasneverbeentempted toslowdownor limithisresearchtoareasofendeavorinwhichhehasalreadyearnedrecognition and honor. Rather, he continues to probe the limits and position himself at the vanguard of a rapidly developing ?eld, while remaining, as always, unassuming and open-minded.
The Physics of the Cosmic Microwave Background
Spectacular observational breakthroughs, particularly by the WMAP satellite, have led to a new epoch of CMB science long after its original discovery. Taking a physical approach, the authors of this volume probe the problem of the 'darkness' of the Universe: the origin and evolution of dark energy and matter in the cosmos. Starting with the observational background of modern cosmology, they provide an accessible review of this fascinating yet complex subject. Topics discussed include the kinetics of the electromagnetic radiation in the Universe, the ionization history of cosmic plamas, the origin of primordial perturbations in light of the inflation paradigm, and the formation of anisotropy and polarization of the CMB. This fascinating review will be valuable to advanced students and researchers in cosmology.
Triggerman
Fighting his past to save his future… Assassin Tom Maverick is making friends in low places to ensure those who hurt him and his family are eliminated once for all. But a new enemy has emerged. A mysterious assassin— known only as “the Ghost”—has put Tom and his associate Zarah into his crosshairs. Is this the man behind it all? As Tom realizes that Zarah has become more to him than just an associate, the Ghost strikes. Tom has to determine how much Zarah really means to him and what will he do to ensure her safety. This strike might cost them both everything. Is she willing to pay the price? As the clock ticks down, every decision weighs heavier. Every step brings him closer to th...
Current Topics in Astrofundamental Physics: The Cosmic Microwave Background
This NATO Advanced Study Institute provided an up dated understanding, from a fundamental and deep point of view, of the progress and current problems in the early universe, cosmic microwave background radiation, large scale structure, dark matter problem, and the interplay between them. The focus was placed on the Cosmic Microwave Background Radiation. Emphasis was given to the mutual impact of fundamental physics and cosmology, both at theoretical and experimental-or observational-levels, within a deep and well defined programme, and a global unifying view, which, in addition, provides of careful inter-disciplinarity. Special Lectures were devoted to neutrinos in astrophysics and high ener...
