This sort of pigeonholing makes it easy to ignore the profound and disturbing questions Talbott raises about our machine-dominated society. The author brings years of computer and Internet experience to the table, leavened by a deep scepticism of techno-idealism, disdain of muddy thinking, and fear that we have embraced an overwhelming force before we've begun to examine its implications. Is technology a utopian delusion that blinds us to social and personal reality? Does the information society actually disdain information? Have we anthropomorphized machines to the point where our institutions resemble them? Talbott neither expects that computers will vanish, nor believes they should. What he asks of us is to examine closely our own humanity. As much as computer believers may squirm, it's hard to elude the questions raised by this complex and intelligent book.

Amateur Telescope Making offers a variety of designs for telescopes, mounts and drives which are suitable for the home-constructor. The designs range from simple to advanced, but all are within the range of a moderately well-equipped home workshop. Thus each chapter begins with reasons for undertaking the project, then looks at theoretical consideration before finishing with practical instructions and advice. An indication is given as to the skills required for the various projects. Appendices list reputable sources of (mail order) materials and components. The telescopes and mounts range from "shoestring" (very cheap) instruments to specialist devices that are unavailable commercially.

Weinberg Title A name given to the resource The Large Scale Structure of Space-Time (Cambridge Monographs on Mathematical Physics) Publisher An entity responsible for making the resource available Cambridge University Press Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 28 March, 1975 Description An account of the resource Einstein's General Theory of Relativity leads to two remarkable predictions: first, that the ultimate destiny of many massive stars is to undergo gravitational collapse and to disappear from view, leaving behind a 'black hole' in space; and secondly, that there will exist singularities in space-time itself. These singularities are places where space-time begins or ends, and the presently known laws of physics break down. They will occur inside black holes, and in the past are what might be construed as the beginning of the universe. To show how these predictions arise, the authors discuss the General Theory of Relativity in the large. Starting with a precise formulation of the theory and an account of the necessary background of differential geometry, the significance of space-time curvature is discussed and the global properties of a number of exact solutions of Einstein's field equations are examined. The theory of the causal structure of a general space-time is developed, and is used to study black holes and to prove a number of theorems establishing the inevitability of singualarities under certain conditions. These conditions are shown to be satisfied in the vicinity of stars of more than twice the solar mass near the endpoint of their nuclear evolution, and in a time-reversed sense for the universe as a whole. In the first case, the singularity in our past. A discussion of the Cauchy problem for General Relativity is also included in the book.

Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 2002 Description An account of the resource In response to Enrico Fermi's famous 1950 question concerning the existence of advanced civilizations elsewhere, physicist Webb critically examines 50 resolutions to explain the total absence of empirical evidence for probes, starships, and communications from extraterrestrials. He focuses on our Milky Way Galaxy, which to date has yielded no objects or signals that indicate the existence of alien beings with intelligence and technology. His comprehensive analysis covers topics ranging from the Drake equation and Dyson spheres to the panspermia hypothesis and anthropic arguments. Of special interest are the discussions on the DNA molecule, the origin of life on Earth, and the threats to organic evolution on this planet (including mass extinctions). Webb himself concludes that the "great silence" in nature probably results from humankind's being the only civilization now in this galaxy, if not in the entire universe. This richly informative and very engaging book is recommended for most academic and public library science collections.

A dangerous assumption in any field, it’s especially problematic when applied to the arcana explored in this cursory digest of cutting-edge physics. Webb, author of the well-received Where Is Everybody? Fifty Solutions to the Fermi Paradox and the Problem of Extraterrestrial Life, tackles the most intractable problems of general relativity, quantum mechanics, particle physics, cosmology, string theory, superstring theory, and the shadowy "M-theory" that may lurk behind the others. It’s an ambitious project, which Webb tries to hold together with the unifying theme of symmetry, a concept he feels infuses the truths of science with a "beauty" comparable to the greatest works of art. Unfortunately, we’re not talking Grecian urns here; the symmetries of avant-garde physics are the kind you find in ten- or eleven-dimensional space-time-that is, baffling abstractions that Webb admits are "difficult to describe, and probably impossible to visualize." Physicists themselves can grasp such rarefied ideas only as the outcome of fiendishly difficult mathematics, and Webb can do little more than skate over them in a mixture of opaque jargon and inexact analogy that lay readers will still find incomprehensible after a few chapters. Occasionally an arresting result surfaces, like the notion that the universe might be a hologram, or that there might be a microscopic twin universe that shrinks as ours expands, or possibly a full-sized twin universe offset from ours by a fraction of an inch. But readers who lack the Ph.D-level training needed to make sense of these speculations may find that Webb’s book alternately numbs and boggles the mind without really enlightening it. 143 illustrations.

Tables of the local circumstances of the partial and total eclipse are given for 165 towns and cities in Britain, and 80 European cities. Good track maps (particularly of Cornwall and the West Country) translate the numbers into reality on the ground, right down to village level. A map of the whole of Britain, similar to that given by Peter Macdonald in the 1995 December BAA Journal, shows the appearance of the maximum partial phase at different locations. There is also a sky diagram of totality, from which we can see that while Venus and Mercury will be prominent near the Sun, Saturn and Jupiter will be close to the Western horizon and Mars will not be visible.

De explosieve groei aan digitale gegevens wordt door marketing managers, multinationals en overheden triomfantelijk binnengehaald als het nieuwe goud. De datarevolutie gaat al onze vragen beantwoorden – zelfs nog voordat we ze gesteld hebben. Maar wat is het eigenlijk, Big Data? En wat moet je ermee, als je niet in de ITwereld werkt? In Dit is Big Data neemt New York Times-journalist Steve Lohr je mee in de wereld achter de hype. Met duidelijke voorbeelden en sprekende anekdotes legt hij uit wat de term Big Data nu precies inhoudt, wat voor impact het op ons (ja, ook op jou) heeft en hoe je goed beslagen ten ijs kunt komen in dit nieuwe informatietijdperk. Want of je nu leraar, arts, manager of ondernemer bent: wie niet thuis is in de wereld van data-analyse en de bijbehorende digitale infrastructuur is de nieuwe analfabeet. Die herkent bijvoorbeeld niet hoe Big Data wordt gebruikt om zijn online aankopen te beïnvloeden of wat voor onaangeroerde schatten er in zijn eigen organisatie aanwezig zijn. In Dit is Big Data vertelt Lohr ons daarom hoe we onze data het beste kunnen managen, beschermen én exploiteren.
