Hidden Wonders: The Subtle Dialogue Between Physics and Elegance

by Etienne Guyon Jose Bico Etienne Reyssat Benoit Roman

The hidden elegance in everyday objects and physical mechanisms, from crumpled paper to sandcastles.Hidden Wonders focuses on the objects that populate our everyday life--crumpled paper, woven fabric, a sand pile--but looks at them with a physicist's eye, revealing a hidden elegance in mundane physical mechanisms. In six chapters--Builders, Creating Shapes, Building with Threads, From Sand to Glass, Matter in Motion, and Fractures--the authors present brief stories, set in locales ranging from the Eiffel Tower to a sandcastle, that illustrate the little wonders hidden in the ordinary. A simple experiment that readers can perform at home concludes each story. More than 200 illustrations bring the stories to life.

Hierarchical Emergent Ontology and the Universal Principle of Emergence

by Vladimír Havlík

This book offers a new look at emergence in terms of a hierarchical emergent ontology. Emergence is recognised as a universal principle, as universal as the principle of evolution. This is achieved by setting out the ontological criteria of emergence and such criteria’s various roles. The traditional dichotomies are overcome, e.g., the synchronic and diachronic perspectives are unified, allowing a single, universal principle of emergence to be applied across various fields of science. As exemplars of its practical utility in both explanation and prediction, this new approach is applied to three different scientific areas: cellular automata, quantum Hall effects, and the neural network of the mind. It proves that the resulting metaphysics of hierarchical emergent ontology plays a fundamental role in unifying science, an impossible task under classical reductionism.

High Wood

by Michael Harrison

Bois de Fourcaux, a luxuriant woodland covering 75 acres, set in the area of the battlefields of the Somme, dominates the surrounding landscape today, as it did in the summer of the year 1916. Known to the British Army as High Wood, the invading Germans had occupied the wood as it proved to be a natural field fortification and a menace that had to be neutralized if the British were to find a way forward in their attempts to breach the trench systems of the German Army and break out into the Green Fields Beyond.This insightful publication will take the battlefield visitor, and also those who are unable to visit the site, on a journey through the history of the battles for High Wood and its environs. It covers the most significant dates in the British Armys struggle to eject the invader and the Germans determination to hold that which they considered to be their new National Frontier. This is the story of the largely amateur British Army of 1916. Lessons were learned in the roaring furnace of the Somme that would transform the fighting ability of the British irrevocably: High Wood was at the epicentre of that learning process.The book contains detailed maps from the time of the High Wood battles using the excellent British Trench maps and, importantly, an explanation on the use of the numbered grid system, which enables the visitor to locate, to within 5 yards, the site of an action that took place 100 years ago. Photographs are also included to enhance the visitor experience. Join us for the journey

by Keith Bradsher

From the book: Sport utility vehicles have taken over America's roads - pushing fuel consumption up and traffic safety down. Keith Bradsher has long been at the forefront of critical SUV coverage and in HIGH AND MIGHTY he delivers a thorough, undeniable indictment of these vehicles as much worse than cars for their occupants, for other motorists, for pedestrians, and for the planet itself. This masterpiece of investigative j'ournalism shows how a flawed regulatory system, a desperate Detroit, and our national love for "bigger and better" have combined to create a highway arms race that puts us all at risk.

Higher Education: Patterns of Change in the 1970s (Routledge Library Editions: Education #15)
