Download or read book Magnificent Principia written by Colin Pask and published by Prometheus Books. This book was released on 2013-09-03 with total page 530 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nobel laureate Steven Weinberg has written that "all that has happened since 1687 is a gloss on the Principia." Now you too can appreciate the significance of this stellar work, regarded by many as the greatest scientific contribution of all time. Despite its dazzling reputation, Isaac Newton's Philosophiae Naturalis Principia Mathematica, or simply the Principia, remains a mystery for many people. Few of even the most intellectually curious readers, including professional scientists and mathematicians, have actually looked in the Principia or appreciate its contents. Mathematician Pask seeks to remedy this deficit in this accessible guided tour through Newton's masterpiece. Using the final edition of the Principia, Pask clearly demonstrates how it sets out Newton's (and now our) approach to science; how the framework of classical mechanics is established; how terrestrial phenomena like the tides and projectile motion are explained; and how we can understand the dynamics of the solar system and the paths of comets. He also includes scene-setting chapters about Newton himself and scientific developments in his time, as well as chapters about the reception and influence of the Principia up to the present day.

Book excerpt: Discover the Super Powers of Your Mind with Telekinesis You may or may not have heard of people moving objects around just by focusing on them with their mind. Some people believe this to be just science fiction. But there is a proven science behind the ability to use our mind in this powerful way; called Telekinesis. This basically is the science of moving objects with our minds. Interesting fact is that we all have this ability that we can tap into, if we choose to put the time and study into learning how to do it. It's not like the super heroes in the movies who throw objects around and make things explode. With time and practice anyone we can learn to focus your attention to make a candle flame move and other fun and amazing activities. This book explains more about the science of Telekinesis along with some simple exercises that will help to improve your concentration. Whether you are interested in learning to move objects around with your mind, or you just want t learn how to improve your focus and concentration, this book is a quick, helpful and interesting read. Super Powers of your mind information you will discover inside: What is Telekinesis How to have Mind over Matter Improving your level of Concentration From Visualization to Meditation Importance of Relaxation And Much more!

Download or read book Organizational Physics The Science of Growing a Business written by Lex Sisney and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2013-03-01 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are hidden laws at work in every aspect of your business. Understand them, and you can create extraordinary growth. Ignore them, and you run the risk of becoming another statistic. It's become almost cliche: 8 out of every 10 new ventures fail. Of the ones that succeed, how many truly thrive-for the long run? And of those that thrive, how many continually overcome their growth hurdles ... and ultimately scale, with meaning, purpose, and profitability? The answer, sadly, is not many. Author Lex Sisney is on a mission to change that picture. After more than a decade spent leading and coaching high-growth technology companies, Lex discovered that the companies that thrive do so in accordance with 6 Laws - universal principles that govern the success or failure of every individual, team, and organization.
