Únete a la lucha. La lucha no solo por nuestro futuro inmediato, sino por el futuro de las generaciones venideras. En 2019, las concentraciones atmosféricas de gases de efecto invernadero alcanzaron un nivel histórico, y nuestro margen de maniobra para actuar va disminuyendo rápidamente.

Designed for non-scientists, Six Easy Pieces is an unparalleled introduction to the world of physics by one of the greatest teachers of all time.

The Quantum Rules applies the laws of physics to explain everything from relationships and human nature to the effects of globalization. It achieves the impossible task of making quantum physics deeply relevant to all listeners - even those with no interest in science. With a lively and engaging tone, author Kunal Das ponders the underlying truths and patterns in our shared and common life experiences, using insights derived from the fundamental laws of physics.

A bold and all-embracing exploration of the nature and progress of knowledge from one of today's great thinkers. Throughout history, mankind has struggled to understand life's mysteries, from the mundane to the seemingly miraculous. In this important new book, David Deutsch, an award-winning pioneer in the field of quantum computation, argues that explanations have a fundamental place in the universe.

From cork taint, to volatile acidity, to off-putting aromas and flavors, all wine connoisseurs have encountered unappealing qualities in a disappointing bottle. But are all faults truly bad? Are some even desirable? Jamie Goode brings his authoritative voice to the table once again to demystify the science behind what causes a good bottle to go bad. By exposing the root causes of faults in wine, Flawless challenges us to rethink our assumptions about how wine should taste and how we can understand beauty in a glass.

1879年，法布尔用积攒下来的钱，在小镇附近买了一处老旧民宅，他用当地的普罗托斯语给这居所起了个雅号——荒石园。这是一块荒芜的不毛之地，但却是昆虫钟爱的地方……1879年，法布爾用積攢下來的錢，在小鎮附近買了一處老舊民宅，他用當地的普羅托斯語給這居所起了個雅號——荒石園。這是一塊荒蕪的不毛之地，但卻是昆蟲鍾愛的地方…… 

"Viaggio al centro della vita" è una guida immaginaria alla scoperta dell'epigenetica. I protagonisti di questo viaggio, narrato nella forma classica di un dialogo, sono Ulisse, un biologo molecolare, ed Efesto, un fisico un po' pazzerello. Entrambi sono in missione al centro della vita per trovare la temibile mutazione k. Trasformatisi in fotoni, entrano nel cuore del DNA in uno spazio-tempo infinito. La mutazione k, però, non si trova! Sarà Atena a condurli alla meta in un avvincente viaggio verso il mistero della vita.

"It doesn't take an Einstein to understand modern physics," says Professor Wolfson at the outset of these 24 lectures on what may be the most important subjects in the universe: relativity and quantum physics. Both have reputations for complexity. But the basic ideas behind them are, in fact, simple and comprehensible by anyone. These dynamic and illuminating lectures begin with a brief overview of theories of physical reality starting with Aristotle and culminating in Newtonian or "classical" physics.

Wenn Biologen bei Freunden zum Essen eingeladen sind, müssen sie immer wieder die ganz existentiellen Fragen beantworten - manchmal auch die intimen und die ekligen. Was bezweckt eine Nachtigall, wenn sie singt? Haben Goldfische einen Penis? Wird man krank, wenn man am Biofilm im Kühlschrank leckt? In diesem Original Podcast leisten eine in allen Lebenslagen erfahrene marine Mikrobiologin und ein Experte für Amphibien und Reptilien erste Info-Hilfe, zusammen mit einem Journalisten, der eine unschlagbare Begeisterung für alles Lebendige hat.

Evolutionary Psychology is a uniquely accessible yet comprehensive guide to the study of the effects of evolutionary theory on human behaviour. Written specifically for the general listener and for entry-level students, it covers all the most important elements of this interdisciplinary subject, from the role of evolution in our selection of partner, to the influence of genetics on parenting. This audiobook draws widely on examples, case studies and background facts to convey a substantial amount of information.

In this collection of lectures that Richard Feynman originally gave in 1963, unpublished during his lifetime, the Nobel Prize-winning physicist discusses several of the ultimate questions of science. What is the nature of the tension between science and religious faith? Why does uncertainty play such a crucial role in the scientific imagination? Is this really a scientific age?

The Star Trek TV and movie series imagine a bright future for humans in space, one in which we explore alien worlds with the aid of advanced technology. Because the writers tried to include as much realistic science as possible within the fictional framework, the stories have been an inspiration for students, scientists, inventors, and anyone interested in pondering our destiny on Earth and beyond. In this show, Brandon Fibbs reviews a Star Trek movie, and Lawrence Krauss talks about how Star Trek uses science to explore what is possible in our universe.

Quali sono i più incredibili meccanismi della vita? Quali tecnologie ci hanno portato alle scoperte? Come fanno scoperte vecchie di cento anni ad influenzare ancora la nostra vita e le nuove tecnologie? In "Dieci! Biologia" Giuliano, Simone e Ilaria vi accompagnano nel mondo dei viventi cercando di capire come funzionano e quali sono state le intuizioni geniali che hanno cambiato per sempre il modo in cui guardiamo il mondo che ci circonda. In collaborazione con Scientificast.it.

“Si j’ai écrit ce livre c’est parce que je voulais partager avec vous ce que je connais de l’ARN, ce que je comprends, ce qu’on sait, ce qu’on ne sait pas” Je ne suis pas complotiste mais généticienne, l'une des plus renommées d'après certains. Dans ce livre, je vous dirai ce qu'est l'ARN messager, celui qui compose les vaccins anti-covid. Parce que vous avez le droit de savoir.

Il 27 dicembre 1831 un brigantino inglese, la Beagle, salpa da Devonport, al comando del capitano Fitz Roy, con a bordo Charles Darwin, a quell'epoca ventiduenne. Scopo della spedizione era completare il rilevamento della Patagonia e della Terra del Fuoco, ispezionare le coste del Cile, del Perù e di alcune isole del Pacifico ed eseguire una serie di misure di longitudine attorno al mondo.

Vitamin C begins with scurvy, which afflicted Europe for four hundred years and killed millions. The reasons that a disease whose cure was known from the outset persisted over that time are at once baffling and familiar, and these trials eventually lead to invention of the science of epidemiology. Author Stephen M. Sagar MD then chronicles the discovery of vitamins at the beginning of the twentieth century, a story that encapsulates the rise of a scientific approach to nutrition but with surprising twists and turns.

Un'attrazione, ostinata e irresistibile, lega la terra e la luna, più che due corpi celesti quasi un pianeta doppio. I movimenti e le configurazioni lunari hanno fatto impazzire gli astronomi e affascinato la gente comune di tutti i tempi, suscitando un culto che ha accompagnato il cammino della nostra civiltà. Ancora oggi la rossa luna delle eclissi inchioda migliaia di persone con lo sguardo al cielo. Mezzo secolo dopo che l'uomo è atterrato sul suo suolo, la luna rientra finalmente nei plani strategici delle agenzie spaziali.
