What’s in a number? Everything.

Why is seven so lucky? Why does thirteen haunt our dreams? What’s so terrifying—and liberating—about zero? With Arden’s signature wit and clarity, this book takes you on a...

What if the world you trust is just a clever trick of the senses?

Among these cosmic mysteries, one question looms large over our species: Are we alone? For decades, scientists have combed the skies for signs of intelligent life—searching for radio signals, scanning the electromagnetic spectrum, and pointing laser arrays into the void. Yet, despite the most advanced technologies and tireless efforts, the silence has been deafening.

Binary is the ultimate guide for understanding and dismantling the sex spectrum, the new cultural belief that sex exists on a continuum and that male and female are social constructs. By analyzing its 10 most popular arguments, Zachary A. Elliott reveals how the tenets of the sex spectrum deny evolution, development, and genetics. Using the primary biology literature, the book provides the listener with a comprehensive scientific understanding of how the two sexes are universal phenomena and how complex genetic networks consistently result in a simple yet profound outcome: male or female.

In a bittersweet blend of science and yarn, Carter Niemeyer takes us back to 1996 on a heart-pounding, eye-witness adventure to add 10 more wolves—the Sawtooth pups—to Yellowstone's newly reintroduced wolf packs.

Alcune storie sono troppo assurde per non essere raccontate, come l'epico scontro Alessandro Volta VS Luigi Galvani, tra rane morte ed energia elettrica che ha ispirato la nascita del mostro di Frankenstein. O ancora Stephen Hawking e quella sua fissa per i buchi neri, Margherita Hack che pedalava verso l'osservatorio tra le bombe della seconda guerra mondiale, Richard Feynman che scassinava casseforti durante il progetto Manhattan, Lord Kelvin il barone della morte termica dell'Universo, Enrico Fermi che ha scisso l'atomo e dato il via all'era nucleare.

During the 1920s, dozens of expeditions scoured the Chinese and Tibetan wilderness in search of the panda bear, a beast that many believed did not exist. When the two eldest sons of President Theodore Roosevelt sought the bear in 1928, they had little hope of success. Together with a team of scientists and naturalists, they accomplished what a decade of explorers could not, ultimately introducing the panda to the West. In the process, they documented a vanishing world and set off a new era of conservation biology.

But is IVF truly the gift for infertile couples that it’s perceived to be?
