In 1905, Albert Einstein declared speeds greater than light to be impossible. This book describes the author's decades-long search for hypothetical subatomic particles known as tachyons that violate this principle.

Captain of Liverpool FC, new Premier League Winners, FIFA Club World Cup winners and Champions League winners, Jordan Henderson is a player who has scaled football's pinnacles. Vice-captain of England who he helped reach the 2018 World Cup semi-final, Hendo is a colossus for club and country. Possessing an astute understanding of the game, he is the ultimate team player. In a sport increasingly overtaken by 30 second clips on You Tube and celebrity culture, Henderson is the sort of player who makes any team better but one who until now rarely gets the credit he deserves. "If I had to name someone I regard as the ultimate professional, then Jordan would come right at the top of the list. He is selfless, he puts himself at the back of the queue because he looks after everyone else first. He puts Jordan Henderson last" is the verdict of Steven Gerrard, the legend he succeeded as skipper at Anfield but a man whose achievements for both the Reds and the Three Lions, Hendo now surpasses.Liverpool won the Premier League for the first time in 30 years this season and Jordan be presented with the Premier League trophy after the last match of the season against Chelsea on July 18. He is als

Examining controversial scientific claims, this book offers a critical guide to navigating the complexities of topics like placebo effects, climate change, and extraterrestrial life. Through a series of case studies, physicist Robert Ehrlich empowers readers to discern between genuine science and pseudoscience, addressing the urgent need for informed judgment in an era where such claims significantly impact individual lives and public policy. This resource serves as a valuable primer for anyone seeking to evaluate the validity of unconventional scientific ideas.

What if the earth were square?Discover the amazing answers to some cooland weird questions aboutour world* What if the earth stopped spinning?* What if we could see sounds?* What if the moon fell down?* What if aliens landed and only wanted to talk to dogs?Bizarre brainteasers and ingenious inquiries set the stage for afantastic foray into the wacky world of real science. Theintriguing topics range from plants and animals to light and sound,from the wind and the weather to the planets and the stars.Captivating cartoons and quick, fun-filled experiments will stretchyour mind and your imagination.

Using everyday materials and simple experiments, the book presents physics in an accessible manner, challenging the notion that it is complex and disconnected from daily life. Robert Ehrlich offers a collection of demonstrations that illustrate fundamental physics principles, proving that understanding these concepts can be straightforward and engaging. This sequel emphasizes a hands-on approach, making learning about physics both enjoyable and practical.

Challenging widely accepted beliefs, a physicist explores nine controversial propositions that provoke thought on topics like health, energy, and crime. By examining ideas often dismissed as absurd, he highlights the fine line between innovative concepts and those deemed nonsensical. Through this analysis, the book invites readers to reconsider the nature of scientific inquiry and the evolution of ideas, revealing that some unconventional thoughts may hold more validity than initially perceived.

The Consortium for Upper Level Physics Software (CUPS) has developed a comprehensive series of Nine Book/Software packages that Wiley will publish in FY '95 and '96. CUPS is an international group of 27 physicists, all with extensive backgrounds in the research, teaching, and development of instructional software. The project is being supported by the National Science Foundation (PHY-9014548), and it has received other support from the IBM Corp., Apple Computer Corp., and George Mason University. The Simulations being developed are: Astrophysics, Classical Mechanics, Electricity & Magnetism, Modern Physics, Nuclear and Particle Physics, Quantum Mechanics, Solid State, Thermal and Statistical, and Waves and Optics.
