From the beginning of history, measurement has been interwoven into the human experience, shaping our understanding of nature, personal relationships, and the supernatural. We measure the world to know our past, comprehend the present, and plan the future....

Why the Universe Exists takes you deep into the world of particle physics to explore how the universe functions at the smallest scales....

I wrote this book because during, my studies of Astronomy at U.C. Berkeley (earning an Sc.D. in the field), most of what was taught involved the discoveries of historical Astronomers; nothing about their private lives. Consequently, you'll learn about the scientists and their backgrounds.

An intimate exploratory tour of Stephen Hawking's office, providing a unique insight into the mind of a genius, the things that inspired him and explanations of his seminal theories.

Light - our experience of light, our measurement of light, and the notion that light speed is constant - can be understood to mark our interface with the cosmos....
