Time Reborn: From the Crisis in Physics to the Future of the Universe
Lee Smolin - 2013
You experience it passing every day when you watch clocks tick, bread toast, and children grow. But most physicists see things differently, from Newton to Einstein to today’s quantum theorists. For them, time isn’t real. You may think you experience time passing, but they say it’s just an illusion.Lee Smolin, author of the controversial bestseller The Trouble with Physics, argues this limited notion of time is holding physics back. It’s time for a major revolution in scientific thought. The reality of time could be the key to the next big breakthrough in theoretical physics.What if the laws of physics themselves were not timeless? What if they could evolve? Time Reborn offers a radical new approach to cosmology that embraces the reality of time and opens up a whole new universe of possibilties. There are few ideas that, like our notion of time, shape our thinking about literally everything, with major implications for physics and beyond—from climate change to the economic crisis. Smolin explains in lively and lucid prose how the true nature of time impacts our world.

Complete Called by the Bear and Tempted by the Bear Box Sets
V. Vaughn - 2018
It contains the complete Called by the Bear trilogy and the complete Tempted by the Bear trilogy.Called by the Bear ~Who up and moves from California to Maine based on a recurring dream? No one who's thinking straight--but that's what I convinced my best friend, Sierra, we should do.Did I mention that dream includes smoking-hot guys? Or that we both have tattoos nobody else can see?Like I said, this isn't normal. Neither is the fact our cross-country road trip nabs us two more women like us--all of us summoned by something we don't understand.Now here we are in Maine where they grow the men big. The women too. Things that shouldn't happen, do. Things that shouldn't exist, do.Where fate is more than a joke--because it appears I was called here for a reason. To save a clan of werebear, to have a true mate by my side. But can I become what destiny has planned for me and save a clan from extinction?Tempted by the Bear ~ Helping a polar bear clan in need sounded like a good idea at the time…Because the alpha, Tristan De Rozier is so hot he's got to be the reason his polar bear clan’s glacier is melting. But his personality leaves something to be desired. Every time he opens his mouth he makes my blood boil in anger! Figures he's my true mate, which means I need to find a way to get along with him before we kill each other.~I, Isabelle DeRozier should be living the life of leisure as the sister to the alpha of my polar bear clan. Unfortunately, global warming means our glacier practically disappeared, so when Annie LeRoux extended her sweet naïve hand out to us, my brother Tristan and I came to Maine with the plan to steal the LeRoux kingdom. It would have been easy too. But Tristan had to fall for the very women we plan to betray.It’s time to take matters into my own hands. Even if it means my bi-polar curse might get out of control.
Hold on tight for the wild ride that will leave you sleepless until it ends!

Mendeleyev's Dream
Paul Strathern - 2001
The story of how we got from there to here is full of fascinating people, and in this elegant, entertaining book, Paul Strathern introduces us to ancient philosophers, medieval alchemists, and the earliest chemists-and to Dimitri Mendeleyev, the card-playing nineteenth-century Russian who claimed that the answers came to him in a dream. "Chemistry has been a neglected area of science writing, and Mendeleyev, the king of chemistry, is a largely forgotten genius. [This book] goes a long way toward correcting this injustice." (Simon Singh, author of Fermat's Last Theorem, in the Sunday Telegraph)
