Summary

Widely regarded as the most influential physicist of the twentieth century, Albert Einstein developed the special and general theories of relativity. His work won the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1921 for its explanation of the photoelectric effect. Einstein also made important contributions to statistical mechanics and quantum theory. His mass-energy equivalence formula E = mc2, which arises from special relativity, is the world’s most famous equation. Einstein’s groundbreaking work, decades ahead of its time, continues to inform and inspire the work of scientists across the world.

    Have you been confronted with a medical diagnosis that has altered your otherwise comfortable and peaceful life? 
    Twenty-five years ago, Margaret Weiss, RD , CDCES was happily raising her family in central New Jersey when she was diagnosed with celiac disease. With little support for what was then a relatively unknown condition, she was forced to face her reactions and behaviors as she navigated many, often unpleasant, life changes to accommodate this disease. 
    ·      Are you experiencing a range of emotions and behaviors related to your own condition that you’d like to understand better? 
    ·      Are you interested in behavioral theories that might help explain and guide your actions as you navigate significant change? 
    ·      Are you looking for a way to transform your mindset about your diagnosis with constructive and reliable best practices that are forward-looking and healing? 
    Drawing on her experience as both a person with celiac disease and as a practicing dietitian, Margaret wrote Eat Your Rice Cakes to explore this journey of change. With humor and pragmatism, she speaks to both patients and providers of healthcare with a combination of personal and professional experiences that illustrate our responses to significant upheaval. Told with humor and insight through her eyes, the book offers an inspirational way for all readers to process life-altering change across a wide range of medical disorders with an ultimate vision of empowerment and compassion.

    In The Book of the Moon, her lucidly written, comprehensive guide to Earth’s satellite, space scientist Dr. Maggie Aderin-Pocock takes readers on a journey to our closest celestial neighbor, exploring folklore, facts, and future plans. 
     
    Have you ever wondered if there are seasons on the moon or if space tourism will ever become commonplace? So has Dr. Maggie Aderin-Pocock. In fact, she earned her nickname “Lunatic” because of her deep fascination for all things lunar. 
     
    Beginning with the basics, Aderin-Pocock unpacks everything from the moon’s topography and composition to its formation and orbit around the Earth. She travels back in time to track humanity’s relationship with the moon—beliefs held by ancient civilizations, the technology that allowed for the first moon landing, a brief history of moongazing, and how the moon has influenced culture throughout the years—and then to the future, analyzing the pros and cons of continued space travel and exploration.

    Time wants you dead. Not just you, but your friends, family, pets – everyone you’ve ever met… 
     
    With over 17,000 known diseases affecting humans, and countless poisons, carcinogens and toxins in our environment, it’s a miracle that our bodies manage to keep us alive. And that is, of course, if they don’t betray us themselves, whether through cancers or autoimmune conditions. 
     
    Biomedical researcher Professor John Tregoning tells the unlikely story of how, against all odds, we manage to stay alive. Taking an organ-by-organ tour of the human body, Tregoning embarks on his own experimental quest, testing 'life-extending' diets and exercise regimes to separate fact from fad. Exploring the multitude of ways our bodies can kill us, from inherited genetic conditions, through heart attacks, arrythmias and angina, onto the delicate workings of the brain, Live Forever? offers compelling insight into how our bodies work, how we can best look after them – and ultimately live longer, healthier lives.
