The book does so by identifying what makes excellent presenters such as Brian Cox, Jane Goodall, Richard Feynman, and Jill Bolte Taylor so strong. In addition, the book explains what causes so many scientific presentations to flounder. One of the most valuable contributions of this text is that it teaches the assertion-evidence approach to scientific presentations. Instead of building presentations, as most engineers and scientists do, on the weak foundation of topic phrases and bulleted lists, this assertion-evidence approach calls for building presentations on succinct message assertions supported by visual evidence. Unlike the commonly followed topic-subtopic approach that PowerPoint leads presenters to use, the assertion-evidence approach is solidly grounded in research. By showing the differences between strong and weak presentations, by identifying the errors that scientific presenters typically make, and by teaching a much more powerful approach for scientific presentations than what is commonly practiced, this book places you in a position to elevate your presentations to a high level. In essence, this book aims to have you not just succeed in your scientific presentations, but excel.

Throughout the 1670s he worked tirelessly with his intimate friend Christopher Wren to rebuild London, personally designing many notable public and private buildings, including the monument to the fire. He was the first Curator of Experiments at the Royal Society, and author and illustrator of ‘Micrographia’, a lavishly illustrated volume of fascinating engravings of natural phenomena as seen under the new microscope. He designed an early balance-spring watch, was a virtuoso performer of public anatomical dissections of animals, and kept himself going with liberal doses of cannabis and poppy water (laudanum). Hooke’s personal diaries – as cryptically confessional as anything Pepys wrote – record a life rich with melodrama. He came to London as a fatherless boy of thirteen to seek his fortune as a painter, rising by his wits to become an intellectual celebrity. He never married, but formed a long-running illicit liaison with his niece. A dandy, boaster, workaholic, insomniac and inveterate socialiser in London’s most fashionable circles, Hooke’s irascible temper and passionate idealism proved fatal for his relationships with men of influence, most notably with Sir Isaac Newton, who, after one violent row, wiped Hooke’s name from the Royal Society records and destroyed his portrait. In this lively and absorbing biography, Lisa Jardine at last does Hooke and his achievements justice. Illuminating London’s critical role in the emergence of modern science, she rediscovers and decodes a great original thinker of indefatigable curiosity and imagination, a major figure in the 17th-century intellectual and scientific revolution.

In this book, you will not find a long series of advanced mathematical equations. There are no theory or assumptions. Instead, you will find many easy to understand graphs based on the latest ephemerides of unprecedented accuracy. KIRKUS REVIEW A book that attempts to explain the motion of the moon—a phenomenon that has baffled astronomers for quite some time. In this work, Spolter (Gravitational Force of the Sun, 1994) delves into lunar movement. As she points out in her preface, this book isn’t full of mathematical equations or theories; instead, it presents “easy to understand graphs based on the latest ephemerides of unprecedented accuracy.” The motion of the moon is a problem that has attracted many of the great astronomical and mathematical minds over the centuries. Sir Isaac Newton himself couldn’t explain it, and the 18th century Swiss mathematician and physicist Leonard Euler abandoned his own work on it. The problem is so incredibly difficult because it’s a “three-body” problem; that is, it involves the sun and the earth as well, which makes it mathematically complex from the start. Furthermore, any proposed theories can be easily compared with real-world observations, making errors immediately apparent. However, Spolter here has tools that no one before the modern era could have imagined. Atomic clocks play a key role, for example, as does lunar laser-ranging technique, as well as specialized software. Drawing on her own previously published research, Spolter provides readers with a series of graphs measuring the moon’s periods, its perturbation by the sun, the eclipse cycle, and the “obliquity of the ecliptic,” among other lunar phenomena. Readers need not have advanced degrees in math or astronomy to understand it, but Spolter’s analysis does demand one’s full attention, and at least a high degree of familiarity with mathematical concepts and symbols. Those who don’t have these skills may not fully appreciate the author’s work. That said, readers who are familiar with the overall problem, and with the means that the author uses to solve it, will find it very intriguing indeed.

Though invisible to current direct detection methods, dark matter can explain a variety of astronomical observations. This book describes how this theory has developed over the past 75 years, and why it is now a central feature of extragalactic astronomy and cosmology. Current attempts to directly detect dark matter locally are discussed, together with the implications for particle physics. The author comments on the sociology of these developments, demonstrating how and why scientists work and interact. Modified Newtonian Dynamics (MOND), the leading alternative to this theory, is also presented. This fascinating overview will interest cosmologists, astronomers and particle physicists. Mathematics is kept to a minimum, so the book can be understood by non-specialists.

Using an image database of over 500 galaxies, the de Vaucouleurs classification is made more accessible and understandable so that astronomy researchers, students, and amateurs can apply the system with ease. Because much has been learned about the physical basis of galaxy morphology since de Vaucouleurs published his revision, the atlas contains a comprehensive review of the recent literature, outlining how different morphological features are interpreted. The de Vaucouleurs Atlas of Galaxies is not only a pictorial atlas, but it is an up-to-date reference on our understanding of the physical processes that underlie galaxy morphology.

In this way, it attempts to make dry catalogue listings more useful to the amateur observer in the field. The selection of deep-sky objects in Uranometria 2000.0 was based primarily on The Revised New General Catalogue of Nonstellar Astronomical Objects (RNGC) of Sulentic and Tifft. Additional objects not in the RNGC were added from Hirshfeld and Sinnott's Sky Catalogue 2000.0, Volume 2. This was particularly important for all types of nebulae and for open clusters, among which are large numbers of readily visible objects not included in the NGC. Sky Catalogue 2000.0 (and thus Uranometria 2000.0 ) also lists hundreds of mostly dwarf galaxies that are quite faint but which have low radial velocities ("redshifts"). These are considered to be relatively near us in space and thus of interest.

The big problem faced by non-professional observers is what to look at - what is visible at a particular time of year. The Deep-sky Observer's Year is a month-by-month guide to the best objects to view. Objects are given a "star rating" according to how difficult they are to observe or image (i.e. photograph) with a particular size of telescope. The book includes many images produced by amateur astronomers, as well as photographs from NASA, ESA and ESO. There is also some background information about the objects that can be seen, along with lots of useful tips, hints, and resources (especially about what is available on the Internet) for deep-sky observers.
