On June 3, 1769, the planet Venus briefly passed across the face of the sun in a cosmic alignment that occurs twice per century. Anticipation of the rare celestial event sparked a worldwide competition among aspiring global superpowers, each sending their own scientific expeditions to far-flung destinations to time the planet’s trek.

Story2
Einstein and the Quantum reveals for the first time the full significance of Albert Einstein's contributions to quantum theory. Einstein famously rejected quantum mechanics, observing that God does not play dice. But, in fact, he thought more about the nature of atoms, molecules, and the emission and absorption of light - the core of what we now know as quantum theory - than he did about relativity.

Story3
In 2005, when Lawrence Summers, then president of Harvard, asked why so few women, even today, achieve tenured positions in the hard sciences, Eileen Pollack set out to find the answer. A successful fiction writer, Pollack had grown up in the 1960s and '70s dreaming of a career as a theoretical astrophysicist. Denied the chance to take advanced courses in science and math, she nonetheless made her way to Yale.

Who are we, and how do we relate to each other? Luciano Floridi, one of the leading figures in contemporary philosophy, argues that the explosive developments in Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) is changing the answer to these fundamental human questions. As the boundaries between life online and offline break down, and we become seamlessly connected to each other and surrounded by smart, responsive objects, we are all becoming integrated into an "infosphere".

Few diseases are more gruesome than typhus. Transmitted by body lice, it afflicts the dispossessed - refugees, soldiers, and ghettoized peoples - causing hallucinations, terrible headaches, boiling fever, and often death. The disease plagued the German army on the Eastern Front and left the Reich desperate for a vaccine. For this they turned to the brilliant and eccentric Polish zoologist Rudolf Weigl.

Story1
To listen to most pundits and political writers, evolution, stem cells, and climate change are the only scientific issues worth mentioning and the only people who are anti-science are conservatives. Now for the first time, science writers Dr. Alex B. Berezow and Hank Campbell have drawn open the curtain on the left’s fear of science. As Science Left Behind reveals, vague inclinations about the wholesomeness of all things natural, the unhealthiness of the unnatural, and many other seductive fallacies have led to an epidemic of misinformation.

Resulta que la mĂşsica no es sĂłlo entretenimiento: es un medio de comunicaciĂłn profundamente arraigado y sutilmente poderoso. Las canciones resuenan con tus patrones de ondas cerebrales e impulsan cambios en tu cerebro: creando tus estados de ánimo, consolidando tus recuerdos, fortaleciendo tus hábitos (tanto los buenos como los malos) ... incluso haciendo que te enamores o desenamores. Tu mĂşsica te está moldeando, a nivel subconsciente, durante todo el dĂa. Y ahora, por primera vez, puedes hacerte cargo.

Quella dell’umanità è una storia avventurosa, costellata di snodi fondamentali, piccole e grandi scoperte o invenzioni che hanno cambiato per sempre la nostra civiltà e l’ambiente intorno a noi e ci hanno trasformato da ominidi pelosi ma ingegnosi in esseri umani dotati di humour e gusti raffinati (e chissà se è stato un bene).

Alles passiert irgendwann zum ersten Mal. Oft ist dieses erste Mal eine mutige Idee, manchmal aber auch ein schräger Zufall oder das Ergebnis jahrelanger Forschung. Sicher ist, ohne diesen einen Moment sähe unser Alltag heute völlig anders aus. Wir würden zum Beispiel anders frühstücken, andere Musik hören oder anders verhüten. Wir hätten wahrscheinlich keine Impfstoffe und weniger Urlaubstage, unsere Drucker würden nicht funktionieren, das Essen würde anders schmecken – von all den medizinischen Entwicklungen ganz zu schweigen.

Nel giro di pochi anni è cambiato tutto; oggi non solo il Dna si può estrarre e sequenziare con risultati assai affidabili ma questi studi aprono prospettive inimmaginabili.

Da sempre misuriamo il mondo. Per conoscerlo ed esplorarlo, per viverci, per interagire con i nostri simili. L'umanità misura per conoscere il passato, comprendere il presente, progettare il futuro. Ci sono voluti però millenni perché due rivoluzioni, quella scientifica iniziata con Galileo e quella francese, avviassero il percorso per rendere il sistema di misura condiviso e non più basato su deperibili artefatti umani, ma su elementi invariabili e universali della natura.

Un giorno al compositore inglese Sir Edward Elgar venne chiesto da dove provenisse la sua musica. La risposta fu: "La mia idea è che ci sia musica nell’aria, musica dappertutto intorno a noi, il mondo ne è pieno e ne puoi prendere ogni volta tutta quella di cui hai bisogno". Lo stesso accade per le piante che, come la musica per Elgar, sono letteralmente dappertutto e per scriverne non si deve far altro che ascoltare le loro storie e raccontarle.

La scienza moderna non nasce con Galileo e Newton. Le sue origini vanno retrodatate di almeno 2000 anni, alla fine del IV sec. a.C. La Rivoluzione scientifica del XVIII sec. riscopre la Rivoluzione ellenistica di figure come Euclide, Archimede, Erarstotene, Aristarco di Samo e di tanti altri raffinati scienziati. Lo studio della "rivoluzione scientifica", cioè della nascita dello sviluppo scientifico, è indispensabile per la comprensione della "civiltà classica". Inoltre, l'esame del ruolo svolto dalla scienza nella civiltà ellenistica è essenziale.

In the context of slavery, science is usually associated with slaveholders’ scientific justifications of racism. But abolitionists were equally adept at using scientific ideas to discredit slaveholders. Looking beyond the science of race, The Science of Abolition shows how Black and white scientists and abolitionists drew upon a host of scientific disciplines - from chemistry, botany, and geology, to medicine and technology - to portray slaveholders as the enemies of progress.
