Download or read book The Snowy Day written by Ezra Jack Keats and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2012-10-11 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The magic and wonder of winter’s first snowfall is perfectly captured in Ezra Jack Keat’s Caldecott Medal-winning picture book. Young readers can enjoy this celebrated classic as a full-sized board book, perfect for read-alouds of all kinds and a great gift for the holiday season. In 1962, a little boy named Peter put on his snowsuit and stepped out of his house and into the hearts of millions of readers. Universal in its appeal, this story beautifully depicts a child's wonder at a new world, and the hope of capturing and keeping that wonder forever. This big, sturdy edition will bring even more young readers to the story of Peter and his adventures in the snow. Ezra Jack Keats was also the creator of such classics as Goggles, A Letter to Amy, Pet Show!, Peter’s Chair, and A Whistle for Willie. (This book is also available in Spanish, as Un dia de nieve.) Praise for The Snowy Day: “Keats made Peter’s world so inviting that it beckons us. Perhaps the busyness of daily life in the 21st century makes us appreciate Peter even more—a kid who has the luxury of a whole day to just be outside, surrounded by snow that’s begging to be enjoyed.” —The Atlantic "Ezra Jack Keats's classic The Snowy Day, winner of the 1963 Caldecott Medal, pays homage to the wonder and pure pleasure a child experiences when the world is blanketed in snow."—Publisher's Weekly

Book excerpt: Chance events and well-intentioned conspiracies can bring people together in unlikely and sometimes comical liaisons. It is 1970, and diffident young mathematician Andrew Carter has just left the security and prestige of Cambridge to begin a junior lectureship at a university situated in northern England. There he runs into Toby Morton, an old school friend, who invites him to his family's country residence for his half-sister's fifteenth birthday-and to serve as a buffer between Toby and his domineering mother, who wishes Andrew could somehow solve her odd sock problem. Over the weekend, Andrew conspires with Toby and Antonia to rescue their older half-sister from their dominating mother's influence, and Andrew grows close to Antonia. Some thirty years later, Andrew-who is single again-receives a call from Sir Oliver Laine, Member of Parliament and speculative dealer, who arranges for Andrew to commute between an Oxford college and Vietnam as a statistical adviser in medical trials and, incidentally, to help him launch a dubiously effective antidepressant. But after Andrew arrives in Hanoi, he meets a homeless orphan. Suddenly, a chance meeting changes everything for Andrew once again. Odd Socks is the compelling tale of one man's journey through the unforeseen as he weathers tragedies and mishaps with aplomb. iUniverse awarded Odd Socks the 'Editor's Choice' designation.

Download or read book The Philosophy of Physics written by Dean Rickles and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2016-08-01 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Does the future exist already? What is space? Are time machines physically possible? What is quantum mechanical reality like? Are there many universes? Is there a ‘true’ geometry of the universe? Why does there appear to be an arrow of time? Do humans play a special role in the world? In this unique introductory book, Dean Rickles guides the reader through these and other core questions that keep philosophers of physics up at night. He discusses the three pillars of modern physics (quantum mechanics, statistical mechanics, and the theories of relativity), in addition to more cutting-edge themes such as econophysics, quantum gravity, quantum computers, and gauge theories. The book’s approach is based on the idea that philosophy of physics is a kind of ‘interpretation game’ in which we try to map physical theories onto our world. But the rules of this game often lead to a multiplicity of possible victors: rarely do we encounter a simple answer. The Philosophy of Physics offers a highly accessible introduction to the latest developments in this exciting field. Written in a lively style, with many visual examples, it will appeal to beginner-level students in both physics and philosophy.

Download or read book The Daily Adventures of Mixerman written by Mixerman and published by Mixerman Publishes. This book was released on 2018-11-23 with total page 404 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Most Infamous Studio Session Ever Documented In the summer of 2002, I began to chronicle my Daily events on a Major Label recording session with a bidding-war band, an infamous producer, and a seemingly limitless budget. Every night, after a long session with these crazy characters, I posted up the day's events. The results were spectacular. As Metro reporter Gina Arnold put it, "Mixerman is supposed to be writing about recording techniques, but somehow, through that prism, he has hit upon a gripping story." That's right, it was even mentioned in random newspapers at the time.When I began posting my story, I had an audience of 200. By week 4 that grew to 25,000. And by the last entry, I was posting to the delight of over 150,000 music business professionals around the world. There were discussion threads all over the internet, debating every decision we made along the way. The story went viral before viral was even really a thing. Most people find them sidesplittingly hilarious. Others find them reprehensible, but that too is rather hilarious. The Daily Adventures are also available as an audiobook, which has been produced like an old radio show, with music, foley, sound ƒx, and characters performed by some of the most well-known record producers and engineers of all time.
