Newcomers to the field of structural biology, which aims to understand life at the molecular level, see a vast number of existing results and are faced with a diverse range of experimental methods. These are used singly or in various combinations, however the...
Animals have tremendous agency to understand the world around them and to plan how to take best advantage of that world to meet their requirements. Their perception of the world differs from humans' and includes knowledge emphasizing different senses. This book argues...
Based on decades of research, this book offers a panoramic rethink of quantum physics, with potentially revolutionary implications for cosmology, quantum gravity, and quantum technology. Properly understood, 'pilot-wave theory' provides a deeper foundation for quantum...
Aimed at undergraduates, graduate students, and practicing engineers, this textbook covers the essential principles of organic electronics from its fundamental concepts through to describing archetype devices that exploit the unique properties of the immense materials...
The troubled history of the Hubble constant told in an authoritative, comprehensible, and entertaining manner In 1927 Georges Lemaître argued that our universe is expanding, a conclusion rendered more startling by the astronomical data that backed it up, presented two...
Particle dynamics with aggregation and fragmentation occurs in almost every branch of science and engineering. Examples include the formation of stars and planets in astrophysics, the formation of colloids and polymers in chemistry, the formation of raindrops and...
Questions of energy policy are among the most central and consequential of any confronting society today. While the role of nuclear energy is key, there is little understanding and much misinformation regarding its nature and its potential. Impeding the emergence of...
We can all play a part in triggering positive tipping points that accelerate us out of the climate crisis. How do we get out of a climate crisis of our own making? As global change escalates, we are already starting to experience damaging tipping points in the...
The doctorate process can seem complicated and daunting in a young academic's career. Whether you are starting your doctoral studies or planning your next steps, this guide offers clear, actionable advice for success in academia and beyond. The Doctorate Blueprint is a...
Aquatic Geochemical Oceanography provides a comprehensive review of the quantitative study of the geochemistry of the ocean. It outlines the basic principles of aquatic chemistry, with instruction and tools to develop an in-depth understanding of the distribution of...
Telling the story of the four-billion-year history of Earth and life, this book attempts to answer some of our most fundamental questions: how did our Earth come to be? How did the Earth's oceans, atmosphere, and climate form? How did life begin? Following the timeline...
Nanomaterials have been part of our world for centuries, although it is only in the last thirty years that we have come to understand that the color of nanomaterials, for example, is tied directly to their size, opening up a new realm of discovery. By controlling the...
The programme of 'constructive axiomatics', promulgated by Hans Reichenbach in 1924, seeks to build up the architecture of our best theories of physics from basic axioms supposedly imbued with immediate and indubitable empirical content. Taking inspiration from...
Imagine two worlds. In one, laws, causal relations, and mechanisms are stable. In the other, they are fragile and unreliable. Our actual world is a mixture of the two, but for many of the things we care about most, the relations that matter are fragile. Fragility means...
The pilot-wave theory developed by de Broglie and Bohm has a special place in the history of contemporary physics, being the very first alternative formulation of quantum mechanics. As is well-known, such a framework established itself as a leading interpretation of the...
Ecologists and evolutionary biologists, especially those with theoretical and mathematical leanings, have tended to dismiss historical approaches as descriptive, smacking of particularities, allowing few generalizations (or even being untestable), and even antithetical...
