Whether pondering black holes or predicting discoveries at CERN, physicists believe the best theories are beautiful, natural, and elegant, and this standard separates popular theories from disposable ones. This is why, Sabine Hossenfelder argues, we have not seen a major breakthrough in the foundations of physics for more than four decades. The belief in beauty has become so dogmatic that it now conflicts with scientific objectivity: Observation has been unable to confirm mindboggling theories, like supersymmetry or grand unification, invented by physicists based on aesthetic criteria.

This ten-part history of mathematics reveals the personalities behind the calculations: the passions and rivalries of mathematicians struggling to get their ideas heard. Professor Marcus du Sautoy shows how these masters of abstraction find a role in the real world and proves that mathematics is...

Math 101: A History of Numbers isn’t a textbook — it’s a story. A fast, listenable, journey through how we went from counting on our fingers to coding AI. From ancient bone tallies and Sumerian tokens to Renaissance ratios, algebraic revolutions, and modern machine logic, this book tracks the true evolution of math — not as cold formulas, but as a living system we built to make sense of the world.

From Oxford's leading AI researcher comes a fun and accessible tour through the history and future of one of the most cutting edge and misunderstood field in science: Artificial Intelligence The somewhat ill-defined long-term aim of AI is to build machines that are conscious, self-aware, and...

FROM ONE OF THE MOST BRILLIANT MINDS OF OUR TIME COMES A BOOK THAT CLARIFIES HIS MOST IMPORTANT IDEAS Stephen Hawking’s worldwide bestseller A Brief History of Time remains a landmark volume in scientific writing. But for readers who have asked for a more accessible formulation of its key...

The book Scripts and Songs on Science and Math 2 is a collection for school-age students that covers the variety of topics in science with the help of musical theatrical plays and material. They were created to help learn science by singing. It includes scripts about the creation of the periodic table of the chemical elements by Mendeleyev, the invention of the microscope by A. Leeuwenhoek in biology, the discovery of Newton’s Laws, developing Algebra, and other science-math topics. The songs and scripts speak to both the mind and heart.
