Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A journey through the otherworldly science behind Christopher Nolan’s award-winning film, Interstellar, from executive producer and Nobel Prize-winning physicist Kip Thorne. Interstellar, from acclaimed filmmaker Christopher Nolan, takes us on a fantastic voyage far beyond our solar system. Yet in The Science of Interstellar, Kip Thorne, the Nobel prize-winning physicist who assisted Nolan on the scientific aspects of Interstellar, shows us that the movie’s jaw-dropping events and stunning, never-before-attempted visuals are grounded in real science. Thorne shares his experiences working as the science adviser on the film and then moves on to the science itself. In chapters on wormholes, black holes, interstellar travel, and much more, Thorne’s scientific insights—many of them triggered during the actual scripting and shooting of Interstellar—describe the physical laws that govern our universe and the truly astounding phenomena that those laws make possible.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1921, five years after the appearance of his comprehensive paper on general relativity and twelve years before he left Europe permanently to join the Institute for Advanced Study, Albert Einstein visited Princeton University, where he delivered the Stafford Little Lectures for that year. These four lectures constituted an overview of his then-controversial theory of relativity. Princeton University Press made the lectures available under the title The Meaning of Relativity, the first book by Einstein to be produced by an American publisher. As subsequent editions were brought out by the Press, Einstein included new material amplifying the theory. A revised version of the appendix "Relativistic Theory of the Non-Symmetric Field," added to the posthumous edition of 1956, was Einstein's last scientific paper.

While growing up under Bartlemy’s protective eye, Nathan Ward senses something else watching him, a shift of shadows in the surrounding Darkwood. Then pieces of his dreams begin to come to life. A man he saved from the ocean washes ashore on the television news. A greenish stone cup set with jewels that has haunted his visions sounds eerily like one lost by the Thorn family centuries ago–a cup that has recently made its way back into the hands of the village’s last living ancestor. Yet when Nathan learns the chalice may have come from another world, a land with bloodstained moons and a toxic sun, he knows he is destined to play a part in something beyond his most vivid imagination. But why is the cup here, and what could it possibly want with a teenage boy and a sleepy town of villagers full of tall tales? With the help of his best friend, Hazel, Nathan must figure out why he’s been chosen–and for what purpose. Even if it means traveling deeper each night into dreams, into lands, into legends that both terrify and mesmerize him. The Greenthorn Grail is the first novel of a thrilling new trilogy, tracing a boy’s journey–a quest rife with magic, wonder, and forces as dark as midnight.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Analyze thousands of years of giant skeletons from 7 to 15 feet tall, along with DNA evidence, genetic mutations, newspaper articles, archeological notes, and excerpts from the Smithsonian Institution's own records. Meet a living tribe of 19th century Stone Age giants. A leading anthropologist compared their bones to Cro-Magnon skeletons. Do they represent the original humans prior to the arrival of extraterrestrial giants, or the biblical Nephilim?Explore the advanced technology of the extraterrestrial giants: two-way radios, aircraft, self-propelled boats, wormholes, military vehicles, and aerial weapons that blasted Earth.Historical accounts, first-person encounters, plus legends and mythology tell us who they were, where they came from, how they interacted with humans, and left us with predictions of their return.There is a systematic attack on the evidence, however, that keeps giants mired in disbelief and ridicule. Documents are being rewritten one word at a time to give us an altered history that completely erases extraterrestrial giants, except in the realm of fairytales and fantasy.Dissect several alleged hoaxes and questionable discoveries for an in-depth look at how debunkers twist the facts:How does Area 51 and several missing witnesses fit into one of the biggest hoaxes in giant history? Were giant mummies used as a diversion for the Roswell UFO crash?Take an expanded look at the mummified, red-haired Lovelock giant found in Lovelock Cave, Nevada, and see how debunkers twisted the facts.Revisit the Los Lunas Decalogue Stone, and see how the Navajo translation was summarily dismissed by casting a shadow of doubt on the credentials of the translator - a translator whose credentials are impeccable.What happened to King Solomon's Cave in Montana? What turned this cave of giants into a giant hoax?The easiest way to hide the truth is to bury it under accusations of incompetency, hoaxes and frauds, so that archeologists and anthropologists distance themselves from the controversy, and everyone questions the authenticity of the bones or artefacts.Meet specific giants including Goliath, King Og, Hiawatha, Odin, and The Watchers of the Bible.Go deep inside the Bible and its forbidden books. Compare Bible translations about the extraterrestrial Grigori giants and their landing site on Mount Hermon. Meet their hybrid descendants: the Nephilim giants, Elioud, Anakim, Rephaim, and others.Benevolent giants lifted humans up out of savagery and taught us agriculture, raising livestock, building shelters, reading and writing, astrology, astronomy, medicine, warfare, and road building. This coincides with the Neolithic Revolution that took us from the Stone Age into the Bronze Age.Human-Giant hybrids destroyed what their parents built, and they became cannibals. Chilling accounts of these giant cannibals span the entire world, leaving us with a truth that's almost too horrific to contemplate.The Fourth World of Native American mythology was the age of giants, and it was attacked by gods who left amazing evidence of their technology.Stolen artefacts, witch hunts, and the total annihilation of the bones of heretics and biblical giants eliminated a big chunk of evidence. The gruesome fate of old bones in general plunges us into a Twilight Zone of the bizarre.Today the Battle of the Bones rages on over old hoaxes and new laws. The fate of the giant bones goes far beyond denial or government cover-up, however. More important than the controversy over missing evidence is what will happen when the extraterrestrial giants return.Conspiracy theories keep humans busy with finger pointing and demands for the truth, when what we should really be focused on is who the extraterrestrial giants were, and what to expect when they return.Are we ready? Look at the evidence, and judge for yourself.

And maybe that's a good thing. Because the two homes I know---my school and my castle in the kingdom of Midveil---aren't what they used to be. With my friends by my side and the aid of a new mentor for magic, I thought I was ready to fight the antagonists who planned to take over the realm of Book and destroy all its protagonists. Unfortunately, the universe had other plans that I didn't see coming. And that's saying a lot for a girl who can see the future. On our quest to find the missing Fairy Godmother Paige Tomkins, my friends and I would be transported to an array of magical lands. From the horrors of Sleepy Hollow and shores of Neverland, to the Wizard of Oz's front door---we were in for one dangerous, bizarre foe and setting after another.

Download or read book Perihelion Summer written by Greg Egan and published by Tor.com. This book was released on 2019-04-16 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Greg Egan's Perihelion Summer is a story of people struggling to adapt to a suddenly alien environment, and the friendships and alliances they forge as they try to find their way in a world where the old maps have lost their meaning. Taraxippus is coming: a black hole one tenth the mass of the sun is about to enter the solar system. Matt and his friends are taking no chances. They board a mobile aquaculture rig, the Mandjet, self-sustaining in food, power and fresh water, and decide to sit out the encounter off-shore. As Taraxippus draws nearer, new observations throw the original predictions for its trajectory into doubt, and by the time it leaves the solar system, the conditions of life across the globe will be changed forever. Praise for Perihelion Summer “Egan here doubles down on climate change with his typically rigorous exploration of a cosmic accident’s effect on Earth and all its people. His characters are sharp and funny and their courageous response to the massive challenge they face works as a spur to cause us to think—why couldn’t we do as well with our own great challenge? This is what the best science fiction can do that no other genre can, and we need it now more than ever. Bravo!” — Kim Stanley Robinson At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.
