Faster than the Speed of Light The Story of a Scientific Speculat
Highlights:
According to orthodox physics, as enshrined in Einstein s Special Theory of Relativity, light travels at one speed & one speed only — it is one of nature s constants. This idea is considered sacred & is one of the foundations of modern physics. But what if it s wrong? In this remarkable & fascinating book, Joao Magueijo puts forward an extraordinary speculation — that light traveled faster in the early universe than it does today. Tracing the story of this revolutionary idea from its conception, this book tells of one man s quest to decipher the true nature of the universe, providing a first glimpse of 21st-century physics, as well as providing a fascinating & revealing insight into the reality of how science is done. Black & white illustrations.
Fateless
Highlights:
Gyuri, a fourteen-year-old Hungarian Jew, gets the day off school to witness his father signing over the family timber business to the firm’s bookkeeper – his final business transaction before being sent to a labour camp. Two months after saying goodbye to his father, Gyuri finds himself assigned to a ‘permanent workplace’, but within a fortnight he is unexpectedly pulled off a bus and detained without explanation. This is the start of his journey to Auschwitz.
On his arrival Gyuri finds that he is unable to identify with other Jews, and in turn is rejected by them. An outsider among his own people, his estrangement makes him a preternaturally acute observer, dogmatically insisting on making sense of everything he witnesses.
