Everywhere and Everywhen
Author: Nick Huggett
Publisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 019970211X
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 234
Book Description
Why does time pass and space does not? Are there just three dimensions? What is a quantum particle? Nick Huggett shows that philosophy -- armed with a power to analyze fundamental concepts and their relationship to the human experience -- has much to say about these profound questions about the universe. In Everywhere and Everywhen, Huggett charts a journey that peers into some of the oldest questions about the world, through some of the newest, such as: What shape is space? Does it have an edge? What is the difference between past and future? What is time in relativity? Is time travel possible? Are there other universes? Huggett shows that answers to these profound questions are not just reserved for physics, and that philosophy can not only address but help advance our view of our deepest questions about the universe, space, and time, and their implications for humanity. His lively, accessible introduction to these topics is suitable for a general reader with no previous exposure to these profound and exciting questions.

Thoughts For a Portal
Author: Jeffrey Poole
Publisher: Secret Staircase Books, an imprint of Columbine Publishing Group
ISBN: 1649141432
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 319
Book Description
Steve and Sarah Miller find themselves back in the manor house—but it’s 120 years before their time! The portal which delivered them into this mess is one-way, leaving them no way back to their present lives. Sarah has been kidnapped, Steve must return to Lentari for the special crystal necessary to create the two-way portal, and all of this is crucial to Steve’s very existence. He meets his great-great-grandfather, who reveals that he is Lentarian, which means Steve has Lentarian blood too. Traveling between worlds was challenging enough. Making the journey in another time becomes dangerously complex when the realization strikes that anything they change now will have far-reaching repercussions into the future. But if Steve can’t save Sarah and get them back to the present, the history of Lentari as well as their own fate, are in jeopardy. Newly edited and re-released! * * * Praise for Jeffrey Poole’s epic fantasy novels: “I loved this book. It had so much imagination to it. Great for young and old.” - D. Estrada “There's adventure & a little humor and all the characters are just right. “ - Happy2Day “I especially liked that this story revolved around a husband and wife team, rather than being the typical “hero's journey” of an adolescent boy.” - M.L. “… plenty of action, adventure, and romance, but is harmless enough for pre-teens to read; it is a well-told tale.” – 5 stars on Amazon “If you love wizards, dragons, griffins & such, you have got to read the Bakkian Chronicles!” – 5 stars online review
