Journey into quantum physics - without the mathematical maze! Ever wonder how particles can exist in two places at once or why Einstein called quantum entanglement "spooky action at distance"? Quantum Physics Unplugged transforms these mind-bending concepts into clear, engaging insights that anyone can grasp.

Artificial intelligence is everywhere—powering news feeds, curating search results, and invisibly steering our lives. We talk to it and, increasingly, it talks back. And sometimes, its answers seem eerily smart, until they don't.

How big is the universe? How many numbers are there? And is infinity + 1 is the same as 1 + infinity? Such questions occur to young children and our greatest minds. And they are all the same question: What is infinity? In Beyond Infinity, Eugenia Cheng takes us on a staggering journey from elemental math to its loftiest abstractions. Along the way, she considers how to use a chessboard to plan a worldwide dinner party, how to make a chicken-sandwich sandwich, and how to create infinite cookies from a finite ball of dough.

Vivimos en la edad del algoritmo. Cada vez más, las decisiones que afectan nuestras vidas no están hechas por humanos, sino por modelos matemáticos. En teoría, esto debería conducir a una mayor equidad: todos son juzgados de acuerdo con las mismas reglas y se elimina el sesgo. Pero como revela Cathy O'Neil en Armas de destrucción matemática, ocurre exactamente lo contrario. Los modelos que se utilizan en la actualidad son opacos, no regulados e incontestables, incluso cuando están equivocados.

How can you be 100 percent sure you will win a bet? Why did so many Pompeians stay put while Mount Vesuvius was erupting? Are you more likely to work in a kitchen if your last name is Baker? Ever since the dawn of human civilization, we have been trying to make predictions about what the world has in store for us. For just as long, we have been getting it wrong. In How to Expect the Unexpected, mathematician Kit Yates uncovers the surprising science that undergirds our predictions—and how we can use it to our advantage.

Against the odds, John Urschel found a way to manage his double life as a scholar and an athlete. While he was an offensive lineman for the Baltimore Ravens, he simultaneously pursued his PhD in mathematics at MIT. This is his story.

Think of a number between one and 10. No, hang on, let's make this interesting. Between zero and infinity. Even if you stick to the whole numbers, there are a lot to choose from - an infinite number in fact. Throw in decimal fractions, and infinity suddenly gets an awful lot bigger (is that even possible?). And then there are the negative numbers, the imaginary numbers, the irrational numbers like pi which never end. It literally never ends.

If you’ve spent a fair share of time in math class glancing at the clock, you’re not alone. Glancing at the clouds and wondering how well counting the flower petals on the windowsill can help you run out the clock is a pretty common phenomenon for people who aren’t into numbers. But those connections you make aren’t just in your head. You might just be closer than you think to understanding the universe. The Voice of Math takes a deep dive into understanding numbers through the lens of humanity.

If you need to learn how to use machine learning, big data, data science, and neural networks but you can’t (or there is no time to) study the complicated math and algorithms behind these technologies, then keep reading. All technologies related to artificial intelligence represent an incredible opportunity if you want to grow your business or if you are searching for a new job, but it’s not very easy to understand how they work.

Why do mobile phones work when you're on a train? What happens when you pull a pop song apart into pure sine waves and play it back on a piano? And what did mathematicians have to do with the great pig stampede of 2012? The answer to each of these questions can be found in the triangle. Join Matt Parker, stand-up comedian and author of the first ever maths book to be a No. 1 bestseller, as he uncovers the secrets of trigonometry and shares extraordinary stories about the mathematicians, philosophers and engineers who dared to take triangles seriously.

The current school system churns out millions of illiterates and mental zombies—but here's how we're going to fix it, starting today. Coming out of the COVID-19 pandemic, parents across the nation grapple with a new and horrifying understanding of just how bad our educational system has become. It all adds up to a system that seems hopelessly, terribly, and irrevocably broken.

What If Everything in the Universe Was Made of Just One Thread? What If Einstein Got It Wrong? This Theory Challenges the Big Bang — and Everything That Follows. The Threads and Luxidoni Light Theory explained in plain English without math, jargon, or paradoxes, offers a radical new way to understand the universe.What if: Light isn't a wave or a particle, but spinning Luxidoni on a straight thread? Gravity isn't curved space, but rising thread tension? Black holes are not holes, but regions where energy stops spinning—so light vanishes? And what if no two protons or neutrons are ...
