Cosmos Carl Sagan
This visually stunning book with over 250 full-color illustrations, many of them never before published, is based on Carl Sagan’s thirteen-part television series. Told with Sagan’s remarkable ability to make scientific ideas both comprehensible and exciting, Cosmos is about science in its broadest human context, how science and civilization grew up together.The book also explores spacecraft missions of discovery of the nearby planets, the research in the Library of ancient Alexandria, the human brain, Egyptian hieroglyphics, the origin of life, the death of the Sun, the evolution of galaxies and the origins of matter, suns and worlds.Sagan retraces the fifteen billion years of cos-mic evolution that have transformed matter into life and consciousness, enabling the Cosmos to wonder about itself. He considers the latest findings on life elsewhere and how we might communicate with the beings of other worlds.Cosmos is the story of our long journey of discovery and the forces and individuals who helped to shape modern science, including Democritus, Hypatia, Kepler, Newton, Huy-gens, Champollion, Lowell and Humason. Sagan looks at our planet from an extra-terrestrial vantage point and sees a blue jewel-like world, inhabited by a lifeform that is just beginning to discover its own unity and to ven-ture into the vast ocean of space.
The secret by Rhonda Byrne
Το μυστικό κληροδοτήθηκε μέσα από τους αιώνες, και ήταν πολλοί εκείνοι που το πόθησαν, το επιβουλεύτηκαν, το έκλεψαν και το αγόρασαν με αντίτιμο τεράστια χρηματικά ποσά. Αυτό το προαιώνιο Μυστικό ήταν προσβάσιμο σε κάποιους ανθρώπους ―εφευρέτες, επιστήμονες, θεολόγους, επιχειρηματίες, στοχαστές, καλλιτέχνες― κι ανάμεσα σε αυτούς που κατανόησαν τη θαυματουργή δύναμή του συγκαταλέγονται ιστορικές προσωπικότητες όπως ο Πλάτωνας, ο Γαλιλαίος, ο Μπετόβεν, ο Έντισον, ο Κάρνεγκι, ο Αϊνστάιν, ο Μπλέικ. Τώρα το Μυστικό αποκαλύπτεται σε όλο τον κόσμο.

Material from The Flying Circus is incorporated into the chapter opener puzzlers, sample problems, examples and end-of-chapter problems to make the subject more engaging. Checkpoints enable them to check their understanding of a question with some reasoning based on the narrative or sample problem they just read. Sample Problems also demonstrate how engineers can solve problems with reasoned solutions.
