Space and time form the very fabric of the cosmos. Yet they remain among the most mysterious of concepts. Is space an entity? Why does time have a direction? Could the universe exist without space and time? Can we travel to the past?

Enlightening and it holds your attention
Revisado: 04-21-04
I am delighted with the unabridged version of this book. Not only do I feel like I have learned a tremendous amount about modern physics, but the text is very engaging. It has been a pleasure to listen to this book.

Lyra is rushing to the cold, far North, where witch clans and armored bears rule. North, where the Gobblers take the children they steal—including her friend Roger. North, where her fearsome uncle Asriel is trying to build a bridge to a parallel world. Can one small girl make a difference in such great and terrible endeavors? This is Lyra: a savage, a schemer, a liar, and as fierce and true a champion as Roger or Asriel could want. But what Lyra doesn't know is that to help one of them will be to betray the other.

Based on 15 years of work at Harvard Negotiation Project and consultations with thousands of people, the authors answer the question: When people confront the conversations they dread the most, what works? Difficult Conversations walks you through a proven, concrete, step-by-step approach for understanding and conducting tough conversations.

Had an immediate impact on my conversations
Revisado: 06-13-03
I find the model of the "three conversations" to be very helpful. Just listening to this text helped me to adopt a learning stance which makes my conversations more productive. I plan to listen to this book again soon to more fully absorb the many useful ideas.

Systematically explores the potential of wireless
Revisado: 06-13-03
There is, as others noted, a fair bit of "hype" in this book, a breathless exhilaration about the many possible applications of wireless in the near future. But that's just the point and what I really liked about this book. If you want a balanced, measured assessment of wireless, look elsewhere. If you want an extended brainstorming session which will turn up many non-obvious implications of these new technologies, then this is well worth your time.
As others have also noted, this is not the place to turn for a detailed explanation of the technology. The author provides enough detail for the reader to understand the basic function of the new devices.
The author reads well and the text is engaging.
