paperback. Physical Relativity is a critical examination of one of the foundations of modern science, Einstein's 1905 special theory of relativity. Harvey Brown defends an original interpretation of the theory, and hence of the nature of space and time, which combines Einstein's insights with those of his immediate precursors. Num Pages: 240 pages, 1, black & white illustrations. BIC Classification: PDA; PDX; PGZ; PHR. Category: (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly; (UU) Undergraduate. Dimension: 233 x 156 x 14.

Hardback. Showing how our ability to see the Earth from 'necessary distance' has profound cultural and ethical implications, this book reveals a split between the ancient idea of the Earth as mother and its more recent conception as a resource to be exploited. The global change revealed by satellites should convince us of the need to act more responsibly. Num Pages: 149 pages, biography. BIC Classification: PDZ; PHR; RNFY. Category: (G) General (US: Trade). Dimension: 166 x 241 x 15. Weight in Grams: 384.

Paperback. Physicists have discovered a phenomenon that operates outside the confines of space and time: nonlocality - the ability of two particles to act in harmony no matter how far apart they may be. If space isn't what we thought it was, then what is it? In Spooky Action at a Distance, the journalist George Musser sets out to answer that question. Num Pages: 304 pages, 13 black and white illustrations, 2 tables, notes, bibliography, index. BIC Classification: PDZ; PGK; PHQ; PHR. Category: (G) General (US: Trade). Dimension: 141 x 210 x 2.
