The writers behind New Scientist explore the baffling concept of nothingness from the fringes of the universe to our minds'' inner workings.It turns out that nothing is as curious or as enlightening as nothingness itself. What is nothing? Where can it be found? The writers of the world''s top-selling science magazine investigate—from the big bang, dark energy, and the void, to superconductors, vestigial organs, hypnosis, and the placebo effect. And they discover that understanding nothing may be the key to understanding everything:- What came before the big bang—and will our universe end?- How might cooling matter down almost to absolute zero help solve our energy crisis?- How can someone suffer from a false diagnosis as though it were true?- Does nothingness even exist if squeezing a perfect vacuum somehow creates light?- Why is it unfair to accuse sloths—animals who do nothing—of being lazy?- And more!Contributors Paul Davies, Jo Marchant, and Ian Stewart, along with two former editors of Nature and sixteen other leading writers and scientists, marshal up-to-the-minute research to make one of the most perplexing realms in science dazzlingly clear. Prepare to be amazed at how much more there is to nothing than you ever realized.

Very few notice the hundreds of changes that hide behind these annual events.The sun, moon, stars, plants, fungi, animals, water, and weather all reflect seasonal changes back to us. Spring is the time of meteor showers, unique cloud shapes, and secret woodland sounds. Summer is a time of sky shadows, strange silences, and one-off colors.

Includes actual instructions! "You might not think that a book about cleaning could be funny but this made me laugh out loud" (The Financial Times). For many reasons, men often neglect housekeeping chores—even when they share the house with other humans who wish they could get some help in that department. How to Get Things Really Flat combines witty observations, true tales of family life, useful information that takes the mystery out of such phenomena as dishwashers and vacuums, and answers to timeless questions including: - When dusting, where does the dust go?- What is the worst thing that can happen while ironing?- Is housework therapeutic?- How can I impress people with bicarbonate of soda?- Aren''t men supposed to be dirty?- And more! "A delightfully amusing tale about the joys and tribulations of doing housework that also serves as a very good primer on how to actually do housework . . . His main target audience is men. But women, I think, will also find Martin''s observations funny and many of his tips helpful . . . And if, after laughing your way through Martin''s text, you''re still not into doing housework, he has a tip for that, too: Hire a cleaner." —Minneapolis Star-Tribune "Martin''s lighthearted but quite handy guide looks at the reasons why men don''t help out around the house as much as they ought to and proposes what can be done about that . . . After reading this offbeat and thoroughly delightful guide to housework, it''s hard to imagine anyone not wanting to give this stuff a try. Martin does what your mother never could: he makes doing chores seem fun, exciting, and rewarding." —Booklist

Veterinarian and professor of animal behavior Dr. Paul McGreevy answers these questions and many more, explaining what life is like from a pooch''s perspective—including a special section about dogs and city living. Filled with humor and memorable characters (including "Uncle Wolf" and "Feral Cheryl"), this guide offers: - Insights from recent studies on how dogs see, smell, and experience the world- Explanations of canine behavior, accompanied with over forty action photos- Tips on everything from petting them to calming them at the vet''s- User-friendly training techniques that build skills gradually and keep your pet motivated Dr. McGreevy offers an exciting new approach to training a dog: By acting as a "life coach"—rather than an "alpha dog" or "parent"—and by looking at the process as a fun opportunity for you and your pet to grow closer and learn new skills, you can greatly improve your dog''s quality of life, and teach good behavior at the same time.

A helpful, easy reference on food safety from a microbiologist and public health expert. The Safe Food Handbook is an essential guide for everyone, especially those most vulnerable to unsafe food: pregnant women, older adults, young children, those with serious health conditions, and anyone who cooks for them. Dr. Heli Perrett provides clear guidance on how to: - Recognize the riskiest foods and places to eat- Protect yourself from dangerous microbes like E. coli and salmonella- Reduce toxins that build up in your body- Learn which corners you can cut—and which you shouldn''t- Enjoy your favorite foods without hurting your health or your budget Organized by food group, The Safe Food Handbook demystifies the perils in our food—infectious bacteria, deadly molds, hormones, antibiotics, toxins, irradiation, and even wax on produce. It explains what to watch for in fruits and vegetables, fish and shellfish, meat and poultry, dairy, eggs, grains, legumes and nuts, and even herbs and spices. Also included are answers to questions on shopping ("What exactly does this label mean?"), eating out ("What should I avoid in restaurants?"), and food preparation and storage ("How long can I save these leftovers?")—so instead of worrying, you can relax and enjoy some good, healthy food. "Perrett writes in a manner that clears the fog of claims surrounding food risks and safety." —Library Journal "She answers many frequently asked questions about prepackaged food, organic products, and what precautions to take with dishes such as sushi and raw beef. She even answers questions readers may not think to ask such as how to avoid distasteful, contaminated spices." —Ruth Winter, MS, author of A Consumer''s Dictionary of Food Additives

This "fantastic story" of one of physics'' great riddles takes us through centuries of scientific history (Simon Lamb, author of Devil in the Mountain). Why do compass needles point north—but not quite north? What guides the migration of birds, whales, and fish across the world''s oceans? How is Earth able to sustain life under an onslaught of solar wind and cosmic radiation? For centuries, the world''s great scientists have grappled with these questions, all rooted in the same phenomenon: Earth''s magnetism. Over two thousand years after the invention of the compass, Einstein called the source of Earth''s magnetic field one of greatest unsolved mysteries of physics. Here, for the first time, is the complete history of the quest to understand the planet''s attractive pull—from the ancient Greeks'' fascination with lodestone to the geological discovery that the North Pole has not always been in the North—and to the astonishing modern conclusions that finally revealed the true source. Richly illustrated and skillfully told, North Pole, South Pole unfolds the human story behind the science: that of the inquisitive, persevering, and often dissenting thinkers who unlocked the secrets at our planet''s core. "In recent years, many very good books for interested non-scientists have been published: Richard Dawkins''s Climbing Mount Improbable and The Ancestor''s Tale, Stephen Jay Gould''s The Lying Stones of Marrakech, and Dava Sobel''s Longitude and The Planets, to name some of them. North Pole, South Pole . . . is a worthy addition to that list . . . Turner has a great story to tell, and she tells it well." —The Press (New Zealand)

One of The Wall Street Journal''s 10 Best Nonfiction Books of the YearPhiladelphia, 1959: A scientist scrutinizing a single human cell under a microscope detects a missing piece of DNA. That scientist, David Hungerford, had no way of knowing that he had stumbled upon the starting point of modern cancer research— the Philadelphia chromosome. It would take doctors and researchers around the world more than three decades to unravel the implications of this landmark discovery. In 1990, the Philadelphia chromosome was recognized as the sole cause of a deadly blood cancer, chronic myeloid leukemia, or CML. Cancer research would never be the same.Science journalist Jessica Wapner reconstructs more than forty years of crucial breakthroughs, clearly explains the science behind them, and pays tribute—with extensive original reporting, including more than thirty-five interviews—to the dozens of researchers, doctors, and patients with a direct role in this inspirational story. Their curiosity and determination would ultimately lead to a lifesaving treatment unlike anything before it.The Philadelphia Chromosome chronicles the remarkable change of fortune for the more than 70,000 people worldwide who are diagnosed with CML each year. It is a celebration of a rare triumph in the battle against cancer and a blueprint for future research, as doctors and scientists race to uncover and treat the genetic roots of a wide range of cancers.

At the heart of this book by Nobel Prize–winning immunologist and professor Peter Doherty is this striking observation: Birds detect danger to our health and the environment before we do. Following a diverse cast of bird species around the world—from tufted puffins in Puget Sound to griffon vultures in India, pigeons in East Asia, and wedge-tailed shearwaters off the islands of Australia’s Great Barrier Reef—Doherty illuminates birds’ role as an early warning system for threats to the health of our planet and our own well-being.Their Fate Is Our Fate is an impassioned call not only to attention but to action. As “citizen scientists” we can collect data, vital to cutting-edge research, that depends on the birds that are all around us. Armed with our observations, scientists will continue to uncover new ways to glimpse our future in birds—and to affirm how, truly, their fate is our fate.

Nobel Peace Prize Laureate Aung San Suu Kyi—known to the world as an icon for democracy and nonviolent dissent in oppressed Burma, and to her followers as simply "The Lady"—has recently returned to international headlines. Now, this major new biography offers essential reading at a moment when Burma, after decades of stagnation, is once again in flux.Suu Kyi''s remarkable life begins with that of her father, Aung San. The architect of Burma''s independence, he was assassinated when she was only two. Suu Kyi grew up in India (where her mother served as ambassador), studied at Oxford, and worked for three years at the UN in New York. In 1972, she married Michael Aris, a British scholar. They had two sons, and for several years she lived as a self-described "housewife"—but she never forgot that she was the daughter of Burma''s national hero.In April 1988, Suu Kyi returned to Burma to nurse her sick mother. Within six months, she was leading the largest popular revolt in the country''s history. She was put under house arrest by the regime, but her party won a landslide victory in the 1990 elections, which the regime refused to recognize. In 1991, still under arrest, she received the Nobel Peace Prize. Altogether, she has spent over fifteen years in detention and narrowly escaped assassination twice.Peter Popham distills five years of research—including covert trips to Burma, meetings with Suu Kyi and her friends and family, and extracts from the unpublished diaries of her co-campaigner and former confidante Ma Thanegi—into this vivid portrait of Aung San Suu Kyi, illuminating her public successes and private sorrows, her intellect and enduring sense of humor, her commitment to peaceful revolution, and the extreme price she has paid for it.

Honest, self-aware, and wonderfully tender, The Call of the Farm is for anyone who has daydreamed about a simpler life—or fallen too deeply in love.Rochelle Bilow, a classically trained cook and aspiring food writer, was nursing a broken heart and frustrated with her yet-to-take-off career when she set out to write a short profile of a small, sustainable CSA farm in central New York. At most, she expected to come away with a cute city-girl-in-the-country piece. But after just one day of moving hay bales, feeding pigs, and tapping maple sap, she was hooked: The air was fresh, her muscles felt useful, and the smells from the kitchen where the farmhands gathered at day''s end were intoxicating.Add in a sweet but enigmatic young farmer whose soulful gaze meets her own, and The Call of the Farm is set in motion. This enticing memoir charts the unexpected year that unfolds as Rochelle immerses herself in life at the farm. She cooks her way through four seasons of fresh-from-the-earth produce (with such tantalizing results as Blistered Tomato Gratin and Crisped Potato Casserole with Shaved Chives), grapples more than once with the finer points of rendering lard, and begins to feel she has finally found her niche—all while falling hard for that handsome, blue-eyed farmer.

Fifty Years After Kitty Genovese

An investigator in the infamous New York murder looks back on the Kitty Genovese case and examines its enduring legacy. Fifty years after she was viciously attacked in Kew Gardens, Queens, the name of murder victim Kitty Genovese still conjures the ugly specter of American apathy. "37 Saw Murder but Didn''t Call Police" ran a New York Times headline that created a legend. A thirty-eighth witness did call—"after much deliberation"—a half hour after the first attack left the targeted woman wounded on the street. By then, her killer had returned and finished the job: Genovese lay dying in a stairwell, just steps from the safety of her own apartment. The apparent indifference of Genovese''s neighbors to her screams—and the cold-blooded calm of the killer who came back—fixed this case in the memory of detective chief Albert Seedman. Ten years later, he gave coauthor Peter Hellman the inside story on the murder that still haunts the American conscience. Seedman''s account of the investigation, now with incisive new commentary from Hellman, is as gripping today as ever, and the plight of Kitty Genovese just as chilling. When Seedman questioned the murderer about Genovese''s neighbors, he replied, "I knew they wouldn''t do anything. People never do. That late at night, they just go back to sleep." This fascinating account blends true crime with psychological insight about the "bystander effect" and the ever-important issue of how we confront—or don''t confront—evil in our midst.

Know It All collects 132 of the column''s very best Q&As. The often-wacky questions cover physics, chemistry, zoology and beyond: When will Mount Everest cease to be the tallest mountain on the planet? If a thermometer was in space, what would it read? Why do some oranges have seeds, and some not? Many people suffer some kind of back pain. Is it because humans haven''t yet perfected the art of walking upright?

An accessible account of the work leading up to the monumental discovery of the Higgs boson, from one of the physicists who was there.Particle physics as we know it depends on the Higgs boson: It''s the missing link between the birth of our universe—as a sea of tiny, massless particles—and the tangible world we live in today. But for more than 50 years, scientists wondered: Does it exist? Physicist Jon Butterworth was at the frontlines of the hunt for the Higgs at CERN''s Large Hadron Collider—perhaps the most ambitious experiment in history. In Most Wanted Particle, he gives us the first inside account of that uncertain time, when an entire field hinged on a single particle, and life at the cutting edge of science meant media scrutiny, late-night pub debates, dispiriting false starts in the face of intense pressure, and countless hours at the collider itself. As Butterworth explains, our first glimpse of the elusive Higgs brings us a giant step closer to understanding the universe—and points the way to an entirely new kind of physics.Praise for Most Wanted Particle"Butterworth is an insider''s insider. His narrative seethes with insights on the project''s science, technology and "tribes," as well as his personal (and often amusing) journey as a frontier physicist." —Nature"A vivid account of what the process of discovery was really like for an insider." —Peter Higgs, winner of the Nobel Prize in Physics"If you want to know why the discovery of the Higgs boson matters, read this book!" —Brian Cox, author of Why Does E=mc2?

How to Get Things Really Flat combines witty observations, true tales of family life, useful information that takes the mystery out of such phenomena as dishwashers and vacuums, and answers to timeless questions including: - When dusting, where does the dust go?- What is the worst thing that can happen while ironing?- Is housework therapeutic?- How can I impress people with bicarbonate of soda?- Aren''t men supposed to be dirty?- And more!

But women, I think, will also find Martin''s observations funny and many of his tips helpful . . . And if, after laughing your way through Martin''s text, you''re still not into doing housework, he has a tip for that, too: Hire a cleaner." —Minneapolis Star-Tribune "Martin''s lighthearted but quite handy guide looks at the reasons why men don''t help out around the house as much as they ought to and proposes what can be done about that . . .

This "fantastic story" of one of physics'' great riddles takes us through centuries of scientific history (Simon Lamb, author of Devil in the Mountain). Why do compass needles point north—but not quite north? What guides the migration of birds, whales, and fish across the world''s oceans? How is Earth able to sustain life under an onslaught of solar wind and cosmic radiation? For centuries, the world''s great scientists have grappled with these questions, all rooted in the same phenomenon: Earth''s magnetism. Over two thousand years after the invention of the compass, Einstein called the source of Earth''s magnetic field one of greatest unsolved mysteries of physics. Here, for the first time, is the complete history of the quest to understand the planet''s attractive pull—from the ancient Greeks'' fascination with lodestone to the geological discovery that the North Pole has not always been in the North—and to the astonishing modern conclusions that finally revealed the true source. Richly illustrated and skillfully told, North Pole, South Pole unfolds the human story behind the science: that of the inquisitive, persevering, and often dissenting thinkers who unlocked the secrets at our planet''s core. "In recent years, many very good books for interested non-scientists have been published: Richard Dawkins''s Climbing Mount Improbable and The Ancestor''s Tale, Stephen Jay Gould''s The Lying Stones of Marrakech, and Dava Sobel''s Longitude and The Planets, to name some of them.

One of The Wall Street Journal''s 10 Best Nonfiction Books of the YearPhiladelphia, 1959: A scientist scrutinizing a single human cell under a microscope detects a missing piece of DNA. That scientist, David Hungerford, had no way of knowing that he had stumbled upon the starting point of modern cancer research— the Philadelphia chromosome. It would take doctors and researchers around the world more than three decades to unravel the implications of this landmark discovery. In 1990, the Philadelphia chromosome was recognized as the sole cause of a deadly blood cancer, chronic myeloid leukemia, or CML. Cancer research would never be the same.Science journalist Jessica Wapner reconstructs more than forty years of crucial breakthroughs, clearly explains the science behind them, and pays tribute—with extensive original reporting, including more than thirty-five interviews—to the dozens of researchers, doctors, and patients with a direct role in this inspirational story. Their curiosity and determination would ultimately lead to a lifesaving treatment unlike anything before it.The Philadelphia Chromosome chronicles the remarkable change of fortune for the more than 70,000 people worldwide who are diagnosed with CML each year. It is a celebration of a rare triumph in the battle against cancer and a blueprint for future research, as doctors and scientists race to uncover and treat the genetic roots of a wide range of cancers.

At the heart of this book by Nobel Prize–winning immunologist and professor Peter Doherty is this striking observation: Birds detect danger to our health and the environment before we do. Following a diverse cast of bird species around the world—from tufted puffins in Puget Sound to griffon vultures in India, pigeons in East Asia, and wedge-tailed shearwaters off the islands of Australia’s Great Barrier Reef—Doherty illuminates birds’ role as an early warning system for threats to the health of our planet and our own well-being.Their Fate Is Our Fate is an impassioned call not only to attention but to action. As “citizen scientists” we can collect data, vital to cutting-edge research, that depends on the birds that are all around us.

Nobel Peace Prize Laureate Aung San Suu Kyi—known to the world as an icon for democracy and nonviolent dissent in oppressed Burma, and to her followers as simply "The Lady"—has recently returned to international headlines. Now, this major new biography offers essential reading at a moment when Burma, after decades of stagnation, is once again in flux.Suu Kyi''s remarkable life begins with that of her father, Aung San. The architect of Burma''s independence, he was assassinated when she was only two. Suu Kyi grew up in India (where her mother served as ambassador), studied at Oxford, and worked for three years at the UN in New York. In 1972, she married Michael Aris, a British scholar. They had two sons, and for several years she lived as a self-described "housewife"—but she never forgot that she was the daughter of Burma''s national hero.In April 1988, Suu Kyi returned to Burma to nurse her sick mother. Within six months, she was leading the largest popular revolt in the country''s history. She was put under house arrest by the regime, but her party won a landslide victory in the 1990 elections, which the regime refused to recognize. In 1991, still under arrest, she received the Nobel Peace Prize. Altogether, she has spent over fifteen years in detention and narrowly escaped assassination twice.Peter Popham distills five years of research—including covert trips to Burma, meetings with Suu Kyi and her friends and family, and extracts from the unpublished diaries of her co-campaigner and former confidante Ma Thanegi—into this vivid portrait of Aung San Suu Kyi, illuminating her public successes and private sorrows, her intellect and enduring sense of humor, her commitment to peaceful revolution, and the extreme price she has paid for it.

Honest, self-aware, and wonderfully tender, The Call of the Farm is for anyone who has daydreamed about a simpler life—or fallen too deeply in love.Rochelle Bilow, a classically trained cook and aspiring food writer, was nursing a broken heart and frustrated with her yet-to-take-off career when she set out to write a short profile of a small, sustainable CSA farm in central New York. At most, she expected to come away with a cute city-girl-in-the-country piece. But after just one day of moving hay bales, feeding pigs, and tapping maple sap, she was hooked: The air was fresh, her muscles felt useful, and the smells from the kitchen where the farmhands gathered at day''s end were intoxicating.Add in a sweet but enigmatic young farmer whose soulful gaze meets her own, and The Call of the Farm is set in motion. This enticing memoir charts the unexpected year that unfolds as Rochelle immerses herself in life at the farm. She cooks her way through four seasons of fresh-from-the-earth produce (with such tantalizing results as Blistered Tomato Gratin and Crisped Potato Casserole with Shaved Chives), grapples more than once with the finer points of rendering lard, and begins to feel she has finally found her niche—all while falling hard for that handsome, blue-eyed farmer.

Fifty Years After Kitty Genovese

An investigator in the infamous New York murder looks back on the Kitty Genovese case and examines its enduring legacy. Fifty years after she was viciously attacked in Kew Gardens, Queens, the name of murder victim Kitty Genovese still conjures the ugly specter of American apathy. "37 Saw Murder but Didn''t Call Police" ran a New York Times headline that created a legend. A thirty-eighth witness did call—"after much deliberation"—a half hour after the first attack left the targeted woman wounded on the street. By then, her killer had returned and finished the job: Genovese lay dying in a stairwell, just steps from the safety of her own apartment. The apparent indifference of Genovese''s neighbors to her screams—and the cold-blooded calm of the killer who came back—fixed this case in the memory of detective chief Albert Seedman. Ten years later, he gave coauthor Peter Hellman the inside story on the murder that still haunts the American conscience. Seedman''s account of the investigation, now with incisive new commentary from Hellman, is as gripping today as ever, and the plight of Kitty Genovese just as chilling. When Seedman questioned the murderer about Genovese''s neighbors, he replied, "I knew they wouldn''t do anything. People never do. That late at night, they just go back to sleep." This fascinating account blends true crime with psychological insight about the "bystander effect" and the ever-important issue of how we confront—or don''t confront—evil in our midst.

An accessible account of the work leading up to the monumental discovery of the Higgs boson, from one of the physicists who was there.Particle physics as we know it depends on the Higgs boson: It''s the missing link between the birth of our universe—as a sea of tiny, massless particles—and the tangible world we live in today. But for more than 50 years, scientists wondered: Does it exist? Physicist Jon Butterworth was at the frontlines of the hunt for the Higgs at CERN''s Large Hadron Collider—perhaps the most ambitious experiment in history. In Most Wanted Particle, he gives us the first inside account of that uncertain time, when an entire field hinged on a single particle, and life at the cutting edge of science meant media scrutiny, late-night pub debates, dispiriting false starts in the face of intense pressure, and countless hours at the collider itself. As Butterworth explains, our first glimpse of the elusive Higgs brings us a giant step closer to understanding the universe—and points the way to an entirely new kind of physics.Praise for Most Wanted Particle"Butterworth is an insider''s insider. His narrative seethes with insights on the project''s science, technology and "tribes," as well as his personal (and often amusing) journey as a frontier physicist." —Nature"A vivid account of what the process of discovery was really like for an insider." —Peter Higgs, winner of the Nobel Prize in Physics"If you want to know why the discovery of the Higgs boson matters, read this book!" —Brian Cox, author of Why Does E=mc2?
