Have you ever wondered why objects drop to the ground or what keeps the Moon from crashing into the Earth? Isaac Newton wondered why. Do you know whether a bowling ball will fall faster than a cricket ball? Galileo could have told you! In this fascinating book, author Paul Fleisher answers these question and many more as he explores the scientific laws that describe how and why objects move. Fun experiments that readers can do on their own and helpful illustrations introduce the basic principle of classical mechanics.

  • QUANTUM TECHNIQUES IN STOCHASTIC MECHANICS
    Jacob D Biamonte / John Baez / JOHN BAEZ & JACOB D BIAMONTE
     We introduce the theory of chemical reaction networks and their relation to stochastic Petri nets — important ways of modeling population biology and many other fields. We explain how techniques from quantum mechanics can be used to study these models. This relies on a profound and still mysterious analogy between quantum theory and probability theory, which we explore in deta...

    Steven B Bryant
    Once in a lifetime we might witness a scientific event so rare and revolutionary that it changes our lives forever. Imagine awakening on the day in history when we learned that the Earth is round, not flat; or awakening on the day we learned that the planets orbit the Sun, not the Earth. Now, imagine awakening tomorrow to learn that Einstein's theory of relativity is wrong!...
