Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: El deporte más peligroso no es el fútbol americano. Es volar una cometa. El mapa del mundo es impreciso. Los silenciadores no existen. Todos pronuncian "Monte Everest" incorrectamente. El Viejo Oeste no era nada como lo imaginamos. Los Illuminati existieron durante solamente ocho años. Los satanistas no adoran a Satanás. A Abraham Lincoln no le importaba la gente de color. Amelia Earhart no desapareció misteriosamente. Egipto no tiene no la mayor cantidad de pirámides ni la más grande. La radiación no es peligrosa. No sabemos nada de los druidas. Las Cataratas del Niágara no son las más altas cascadas. Las Islas Canarias no se llaman así por los canarios. No todos los piratas eran criminales. Algunos de ellos eran agentes del gobierno. Los Rastafari no se llaman a sí mismos "Rastafari". El sol no está ardiendo. Los amish (menonitas) sí usan electricidad.

Download or read book Newton s Apple and Other Myths about Science written by Ronald L. Numbers and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2015-11-04 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Guardian “Favourite Reads—as Chosen by Scientists” Selection “Tackles some of science’s most enduring misconceptions.” —Discover A falling apple inspired Isaac Newton’s insight into the law of gravity—or did it really? Among the many myths debunked in this refreshingly irreverent book are the idea that alchemy was a superstitious pursuit, that Darwin put off publishing his theory of evolution for fear of public reprisal, and that Gregor Mendel was ahead of his time as a pioneer of genetics. More recent myths about particle physics and Einstein’s theory of relativity are discredited too, and a number of dubious generalizations, like the notion that science and religion are antithetical, or that science can neatly be distinguished from pseudoscience, go under the microscope of history. Newton’s Apple and Other Myths about Science brushes away popular fictions and refutes the widespread belief that science advances when individual geniuses experience “Eureka!” moments and suddenly grasp what those around them could never imagine. “Delightful...thought-provoking...Every reader should find something to surprise them.” —Jim Endersby, Science “Better than just countering the myths, the book explains when they arose and why they stuck.” —The Guardian

Download or read book Enduring Roots written by Gayle Brandow Samuels and published by Rutgers University Press. This book was released on 2005-01-03 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Trees are the grandest and most beautiful plant creations on earth. From their shade-giving, arching branches and strikingly diverse bark to their complex root systems, trees represent shelter, stability, place, and community as few other living objects can. Enduring Roots tells the stories of historic American trees, including the oak, the apple, the cherry, and the oldest of the world's trees, the bristlecone pine. These stories speak of our attachment to the land, of our universal and eternal need to leave a legacy, and demonstrate that the landscape is a gift, to be both received and, sometimes, tragically, to be destroyed. Each chapter of this book focuses on a specific tree or group of trees and its relationship to both natural and human history, while exploring themes of community, memory, time, and place. Readers learn that colonial farmers planted marker trees near their homes to commemorate auspicious events like the birth of a child, a marriage, or the building of a house. They discover that Benjamin Franklin's Newtown Pippin apples were made into a pie aboard Captain Cook's Endeavour while the ship was sailing between Tahiti and New Zealand. They are told the little-known story of how the Japanese flowering cherry became the official tree of our nation's capital--a tale spanning many decades and involving an international cast of characters. Taken together, these and many other stories provide us with a new ways to interpret the American landscape. "It is my hope," the author writes, "that this collection will be seen for what it is, a few trees selected from a great forest, and that readers will explore both--the trees and the forest--and find pieces of their own stories in each."

Book excerpt: Mirar al cielo suele parecernos un suceso similar al de asomarse a un abismo. El cosmos es para nosotros el reino de lo lejano, el espacio donde yace todo aquello que nunca podremos tocar. Lo que ocurre, sin embargo, es todo lo contrario. No hay nada más cercano que el cielo, nada más propio de nuestra condición que dejarse asombrar por el brillo de un planeta. Todo lo que nos ha ocurrido como especie, todo lo que les ocurrió a las especies que nos precedieron y habrá de ocurrirles a las que nos sigan está íntimamente unido al devenir de los astros. Esto lo sabe muy bien Rafael Bachiller, uno de los pocos científicos profesionales que se esfuerzan por comunicar la ciencia al gran público.
