Book Description
Attachment is a fictional horror story that takes you outside the norm. It delivers a story that is uniquely different. The story directs the protagonist through an intense, unstable, growing situation that corners them. They have to conquer this anomaly without the usual resources. I wanted to give the audience a story that suddenly overwhelms and blankets its characters. I am a film lover and historian, so I wanted to pay homage to the lost film era of the past and introduce an aspect of the lost genre to the millennials.

Quantum
Author: Manjit Kumar
Publisher: Icon Books Ltd
ISBN: 1848311036
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 447
Book Description
'This is about gob-smacking science at the far end of reason ... Take it nice and easy and savour the experience of your mind being blown without recourse to hallucinogens' Nicholas Lezard, Guardian For most people, quantum theory is a byword for mysterious, impenetrable science. And yet for many years it was equally baffling for scientists themselves. In this magisterial book, Manjit Kumar gives a dramatic and superbly-written history of this fundamental scientific revolution, and the divisive debate at its core. Quantum theory looks at the very building blocks of our world, the particles and processes without which it could not exist. Yet for 60 years most physicists believed that quantum theory denied the very existence of reality itself. In this tour de force of science history, Manjit Kumar shows how the golden age of physics ignited the greatest intellectual debate of the twentieth century. Quantum theory is weird. In 1905, Albert Einstein suggested that light was a particle, not a wave, defying a century of experiments. Werner Heisenberg's uncertainty principle and Erwin Schrodinger's famous dead-and-alive cat are similarly strange. As Niels Bohr said, if you weren't shocked by quantum theory, you didn't really understand it. While "Quantum" sets the science in the context of the great upheavals of the modern age, Kumar's centrepiece is the conflict between Einstein and Bohr over the nature of reality and the soul of science. 'Bohr brainwashed a whole generation of physicists into believing that the problem had been solved', lamented the Nobel Prize-winning physicist Murray Gell-Mann. But in "Quantum", Kumar brings Einstein back to the centre of the quantum debate. "Quantum" is the essential read for anyone fascinated by this complex and thrilling story and by the band of brilliant men at its heart.

Pages : 177
Book Description
The story starts with friends Ahma and Jovian who, like most humans, have fallen on terrible luck. There’s nothing special about these two or humanity in general. The dystopian, grey world the men live in is held tightly in the grip of overpopulation. People are subsisting and not much more. The friends have nothing to look forward to until they happen to find the Church of All Nonbelievers. What’s the guiding principle of this somewhat sacrilegious institution? As the book states, “GOD IS NOT INDEBTED TO THE UNIVERSE AND TIME—WE ARE INDEBTED TO OUR GOD.” Enter a paranormal being who offers Ahma and Jovian the chance to rise above their meager existence. The offer comes with a warning. Should the two mess up the opportunity, they’ll bring their own ruination. The story leads the friends down a winding path that is one half The Matrix and another half Heresy. In the end, the men find out their ties run deeper than ever thought, the government’s guiding hand in their lives more invasive, and the lines between religion and science so completely blurred that both begin to look like futuristic psychology.
