Download or read book Once Before Time written by Martin Bojowald and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2011-11-01 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In his introduction to a revolutionary theory of the cosmos, Martin Bojowald shows how the big bang theory may give way to the big bounce theory, which describes our universe as an eternal series of expansions and contractions, with no beginning and no end. In 2000, Bojowald, then a twenty-seven-year-old postdoctoral student at Pennsylvania State University, used a relatively new theory called loop quantum gravity—a cunning combination of Einstein’s theory of gravity with quantum mechanics—to create a simple model of the universe. Loop quantum cosmology, or LQC, was born, and with it, a theory that managed to do something even Einstein’s general theory of relativity had failed to do—illuminate the very birth of the universe.

Book excerpt: Graduate student Bree Sanders is failing the one class she needs to get her degree. So when her professor gives her an ultimatum--ace her thesis or risk having to repeat her final semester--she knows she has to pull out all the stops. After scrambling for an idea, she decides to create her own Ghost Club, a club that blames ghosts for unsolved crimes, the same type of club originally founded two centuries ago by Charles Dickens. What she doesn't expect is to find an original copy of one of Dickens' early works, or to be transplanted into Dickens's actual ghost club meeting, circa 1870, the instant she picks it up. When Bree shows up in nineteenth-century England wearing cut-offs and an old t-shirt, her only option is to hide. The London of 1870 won't look kindly on a woman dressed like her. So, when Theodore Keyes finds her tucked behind a bookcase at the King's College library and immediately demands to know where she came from, she knows he doesn't belong here either. Turns out she's right; the same book caused him to time-travel from 1947 almost three months ago and he's been stuck in England since. Together, the two vow to work side-by-side in their search for the lost book that will take them home. But as their feelings for one another deepen, Theo and Bree are caught between a desire to return to the lives they each left behind, and the knowledge that if they find the book, they won't be able to leave together. In the end, they each must decide which sacrifice is worth making--the one that will cost them their hearts, or the one that could cost them their very existence.
Download or read book The Time Before You Die written by Lucy Beckett and published by Antony Rowe Publishing Services. This book was released on 2005-01-01 with total page 331 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This historical novel, set in the traumatic sixteenth century, saw the end of medieval Christendom as it was split into the sovereign states of modern Europe. This was particularly destructive in Tudor England where rapid switches in government policy shattered the lives of many. Especially affected were the monks and nuns persecuted by the wholesale dissolution of the monasteries under Henry VIII. One of these cast-out monks, a Carthusian of the dismantled priory of Mount Grace in Yorkshire, was Robert Fletcher, the hero of this novel. The story of this strong, vulnerable man is told in counterpoint with the story of one of the most interesting men in the whole of English history, Reginald Pole, a nobleman, scholar and theologian who was exiled in Italy for twenty years. He was a Cardinal, papal legate at the Council of Trent, and as Archbishop of Canterbury, with his cousin Queen Mary Tudor, they tried, in too short a time, to renew Catholic England. Pole, in the tragic last months of his life, becomes in the novel the friend of Robert Fletcher, now condemned as a heretic. Readers will learn much about this anguished period which gave birth to Tridentine Catholicism as well as to the Anglican and other Protestant churches, and which martyred Carthusian monks and many others.

Book excerpt: Aries Zevulun this is Minka Le Bon. Max just had the feeling that the introduction was not needed, he just watched as she nodded her head. Finally, Aries felt as if he could move. His foot lifted and he seemed to break free of the spell. This is the grieving widow? he asked. Sir my husband still alive, She stated a bit confused. That can change all you have to do is say the word. There was a definite anger in his voice. That is not necessary. She replied softly Very well, I leave that up to you. I give you my word that no one will hurt you like that again. I promise you that. His voice carried a deepness to it that was colored by a slight Spanish accent. Just as in her dreams. So you are the computer expert? she smiled. Indeed I am, among a great many other things. He flashed her wicked little grin; it was something only the two of them would share. I will not ask for that list I am sure there are many things I would not care to know. She smirked at him That might be true but there are a great many things on that list that would intrigue you that I can guarantee He said with his usual arrogance. A trait to she had come to admire in him, but for now I would like to see the computers if I may. Minka nodded and excused herself from her guests. She carefully transferred to her wheelchair. She went to push herself through the room but as she past him, he began to push the chair. As they, left out of view and earshot Max scowled. Helen, I do not trust him with her. He said as concern filled his voice. Max, I think he is exactly what she needs at the moment. Please let this unfold. Her voice was strong and authoritative. I know that man Helen. He is womanizing son of a bitch and a low life. Max growled under her breath. Maybe so but you will have to trust me. I think it Minka that has the upper hand in this situation and it will be fine. She smiled again and nodded. When they re-purposed Rand’s old room, they had moved the computer into Minka’s office. It had taken Aries only a few minutes to set it up and get Rand’s computer running. Minka’s was just in sleep mode so it took seconds to wake it up. Tell me will I find porn on your computer? He grinned at her. No you will not. She responded May I put porn on your computer? he gave her another wicked grin. NO! she half laughed. May I put porn of you on the computer? He waited for her to kill him. Only if you're in it with me. She smirked at him.Touché He laughed and shook his head. He was not exactly expecting that form her but she partially put him in his place. He had pulled up an office chair that Minka had used for guests when she had visitors in the office then he motioned for her to join him. Come sit with me. I need to see this email and check your files. She rolled up the desk and sat next to him. Now she wished she had dressed a bit better, but she was not going to put on airs for anyone. So what do you my help with? She asked. There is great many of things I could use a beautiful woman’s help with and it does not involve a computer, a bed and leather thongs He arched both eyebrows at her and smiles.Please just focus for a moment Aries, This is important. Her voice was soft and yet it came out a bit too harsh. Yes, yes I am sorry I was distracted by a beautiful woman at my side. But I will behave for a moment. His voice was still a bit cocky. So let us see this lovely email my dear. She reached over him and her back brushed against his she reached for the mouse. The electricity between them as there had been in the dream. She brought her email once the letter displayed she pulled away from computer and him and looked away not wanting to see that letter again.
