¿Que sintieron los grandes cientificos de la historia en el momento en que alcanzaron sus grandes descubrimientos? ¿Como llegaron al instante magico en el que sus predicciones se hicieron realidad? Este increible viaje de la prediccion a la prueba nos transporta desde laboratorios ubicados en Paris y Cambridge hasta el frente ruso devastado por la guerra, pasando por bunkeres construidos bajo reactores nucleares y enormes tuneles subterraneos en la frontera suizo-francesa. Desde el electromagnetismo hasta las ondas gravitacionales de Einstein y el escurridizo neutrino de Wolfgang Pauli, el aclamado escritor y cientifico Marcus Chown nos acompana en un recorrido impresionante por los avances de la fisica moderna, deteniendose en ese instante magico en el que las matematicas y la fisica, de la mano de sus mas brillantes representantes, cambiaron para siempre la historia de la ciencia.

Cerrad los ojos. Imaginad un espacio sin límites. Imaginad los movimientos de una partida de ajedrez perfecta. Imaginad que el número 4 pudiera decirse de muchas maneras diferentes. Imaginad los acontecimientos infinitesimales que pueden conducir a que estalle la revolucion en un pais. Imaginad una tribu que, por no saber contar, no planea nada que se prolongue mas de un dia. Imaginad a Shakespeare descubriendo el numero cero y las dimensiones de una ausencia. Imaginad que pudierais leer un libro de una infinidad de maneras distintas.Me llamo Daniel Tammet, y soy sinestesico: percibo los numeros con colores y siluetas. En mi cabeza, contar es como pasear por un bosque. Tengo diagnosticado, ademas, el sindrome del sabio: puedo aprender un idioma en una semana, y recitar decimales del numero pi durante cinco horas (por eso me dieron un Guinness). De pequeño resolvi que, si conseguia reunir suficientes recuerdos y someterlos a un patron estadistico, podria predecir el comportamiento de mi madre. Los numeros primos poseen para mi la belleza de la poesia. No entendi lo que me sucedia hasta que conoci a Rain Man (al de verdad). Cada mañana me siento en mi escritorio y me pregunto: ¿y si...?

Philosophi Naturalis Principia Mathematica (Latin for Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy), often referred to as simply the Principia, is a work in three books by Isaac Newton, in Latin, first published 5 July 1687. After annotating and correcting his personal copy of the first edition, Newton published two further editions, in 1713 and 1726. The Principia states Newtons laws of motion, forming the foundation of classical mechanics; Newtons law of universal gravitation; and a derivation of Keplers laws of planetary motion (which Kepler first obtained empirically).The Principia is considered one of the most important works in the history of science. The French mathematical physicist Alexis Clairaut assessed it in 1747: "The famous book of Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy marked the epoch of a great revolution in physics. The method followed by its illustrious author Sir Newton spread the light of mathematics on a science which up to then had remained in the darkness of conjectures and hypotheses."A more recent assessment has been that while acceptance of Newtons theories was not immediate, by the end of the century after publication in 1687.

Micrographia is a historic book by Robert Hooke, detailing the then thirty-year-old Hookes observations through various lenses. Published in September 1665, the first major publication of the Royal Society, it was the first scientific best-seller, inspiring a wide public interest in the new science of microscopy. It is also notable for coining the biological term cell.Observations:Hooke most famously describes a flys eye and a plant cell (where he coined that term because plant cells, which are walled, reminded him of a monks quarters). Known for its spectacular copperplate engravings of the miniature world, particularly its fold-out plates of insects, the text itself reinforces the tremendous power of the new microscope. The plates of insects fold out to be larger than the large folio itself, the engraving of the louse in particular folding out to four times the size of the book. Although the book is best known for demonstrating the power of the microscope, Micrographia also describes distant planetary bodies, the wave theory of light, the organic origin of fossils, and various other philosophical and scientific interests of its author.

This book is the result of many years of contact with embalmers in training and in practice. We have included in this work a crystallization of essential information without which, the embalmer must be poorly equipped to carry out the many duties incident to his calling in a manner satisfactory to his patrons and to himself.Having been thrown in contact with the many problems surrounding the education of the embalmer, the authors have gained many ideas as to just how to place the information before the embalmer so that the result will be reflected in an increased capacity for good work on the part of the individual embalmer.In prescribing information for the embalmer in this manner, we know clearly just what is to be expected from the application of the sciences herein described, and wish for the novitiate and practitioner the same enthusiasm for actual knowledge that has helped us thus far in arranging the information.In Part One, we have chronicled, from the word of historians and men of the present day, a condensed, yet complete exposition of the funeral customs relating to the care of the dead, giving our readers a better understanding of present methods by reason.

Desde la Grecia clásica hasta las investigaciones más punteras, esta es la apasionante historia de uno de los mayores misterios del universo: el vacío.Los descubrimientos más recientes han transformado nuestra comprension del vacio y del universo. A lo largo de la historia, la ciencia y la filosofia lo imaginaron como una nada absoluta, pero hoy sabemos que el vacio es un campo vibrante, pleno de energia y origen de todo lo existente. Con rigor y sensibilidad, Guido Tonelli nos guia por un viaje que une fisica, filosofia y cosmologia para mostrarnos como el vacio, lejos de ser ausencia, es la fuerza que da forma al cosmos y a nuestra propia existencia.
