Why Evolution Works (and Creationism Fails) is an impassioned argument in favor of science-primarily the theory of evolution-and against creationism. Why impassioned? Should not scientists be dispassionate in their work? “Perhaps,” write the authors, “but it is impossible to remain neutral when our most successful scientific theories are under attack, for religious and other reasons, by laypeople and even some scientists who willfully distort scientific findings and use them for their own purposes.”Focusing on what other books omit, how science works and how pseudoscience works, Matt Young and Paul K. Strode demonstrate the futility of “scientific” creationism. They debunk the notion of intelligent design and other arguments that show evolution could not have produced life in its present form.Concluding with a frank discussion of science and religion, Why Evolution Works (and Creationism Fails) argues that science by no means excludes religion, though it ought tocast doubt on certain religious claims that are contrary to known scientific fact.
Life Literacy

It has become almost cliché to say that the world has changed.The pace of technology change, the increasing number of new businesses, and growing global workforce has made the world a more competitive place. Global economic events have delayed retirement for millions around the world and thinning margins are making employers more risk adverse to prevent any disruptions in business continuity. This major shift in the business world is the recipe for a perfect storm that could be nothing short of catastrophic for many organizations, nations, and people.Life Literacy is a cautionary tale, a forensic journey into what went wrong, a roadmap out of trouble, and a beacon for what life can be like. It is a timely, highly practical survival guide that will help the current and future generations create a better world where opportunities are abundant, success is achieved, and the pitfalls of predecessors are avoided. One-sided solutions never solve problems. Life Literacy provides both viewpoints highlighting the problems that aren’t very far downstream that will cripple companies and communities if left unaddressed, as well as solutions that show what life could be like if people learn from one another.

Optics and Lasers is an introduction to engineering and applied optics, including not only elementary ray and wave optics, but also lasers, holography, copherence, fibers, and optical waveguides. It stresses physicalprinciples, applications, and instrumentation. It will be most usefull to the practicing engineer or experimental scientist, graduate student, or advanced undergraduate. It contains more than enough material from which to selelct the core of an introctory optics course and sufficientto form the bulk of a more advanced course.

Optik,Laser, Wellenleiter stellt eine Einführung in die angewandte Optik dar. Dabei werden nicht nur Strahlenoptik mit optischen Instrumenten, Lichtquellen und Detektoren einerseits sowie Wellenoptik mit Interferometrie andererseits behandelt; es wird auch ausführlich auf Holographie, Laser, Kohärenz, Faseroptik, Wellenleiter und integrierte Optik eingegangen. Die physikalischen Grundlagen, Anwendungen und die Instrumentierung stehen dabei stets im Vordergrund. Mehr als 100 Übungen dienen der Vertiefung des Stoffes. Das Buch ist sowohl als vorlesungsbegleitende Lektüre für Studenten als auch als Nachschlagewerk für Diplomanden, Wissenschaftler und Praktiker geeignet.
