In The Quantum Universe, Brian Cox and Jeff Forshaw approach the world of quantum mechanics in the same way they did in Why Does E=mc2? and make fundamental scientific principles accessible - and fascinating - to everyone.The subatomic realm has a reputation for weirdness, spawning any number of profound misunderstandings, journeys into Eastern mysticism, and woolly pronouncements on the interconnectedness of all things. Cox and Forshaw's contention? There is no need for quantum mechanics to be viewed this way.

Our gut is almost as important to us as our brain, yet we know very little about how it works. Gut: The Inside Story is an entertaining, informative tour of the digestive system from the moment we raise a tasty morsel to our lips until the moment our body surrenders the remnants to the toilet bowl. No topic is too lowly for the author's wonder and admiration, from the careful choreography of breaking wind to the precise internal communication required for a cleansing vomit.

Everything you need to know about raising chickens
I highly recommend this book to any backyard chicken enthusiast who wishes to reconnect with nature and discover the incredible joys and rewards of raising your own livestock.
You learn everything from how to build a chicken coop and make it safe and comfortable for your birds to how to raise healthy and happy chickens, how to collect fresh eggs every day, how to prepare meals for your friends that will have them going, “Wow, where did you get that?” and how to incorporate chickens into your garden to keep the bugs away and fertilize it as well.
What might make this book different, though, is that it touches on just about everything you need to know and will answer a lot of those questions you have about getting chickens, providing information in a simple, down-to-earth manner. From identifying the common health issues to the ways to avoid predators, Claire Hennington covers it all. This book will give you all the information you need for your feathery flock.
