Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. You don't notice the moment everything changes-until it's already too late.Dr. Elara Voss, an exobiologist aboard the deep-space vessel Horizon Ark, is sent to investigate a mysterious anomaly at the edge of known space. What begins as a scientific mission quickly turns into something far more unsettling when the anomaly responds-not as a signal, but as an intelligence.As contact deepens, Elara realizes this is no ordinary encounter. The entity does not communicate through language, but through perception, memory, and awareness itself. And as it learns from her, she begins to change.Her body adapts.Her thoughts shift.The boundary between human and unknown begins to dissolve.Back on Earth, fear grows as transmissions become unstable and control begins to slip. Orders are given to disengage. But far from home, Elara is already connected to something that cannot simply be shut down.Now, she must face a question no one prepared her for: What if first contact isn't an encounter. but a transformation?Alien Conception is a thought-provoking first contact science fiction novel that blends deep space mystery with psychological tension and human emotion. Perfect for readers who enjoy intelligent sci-fi, slow-burn suspense, and stories that explore the unknown in unexpected ways.If you're ready for a story that goes beyond discovery-and into evolution-this is a journey you won't forget.

Paperback. Condición: New. Since Poincare's time, topologists have been most concerned with three species of manifold. The most primitive of these--the TOP manifolds--remained rather mysterious until 1968, when Kirby discovered his now famous torus unfurling device. A period of rapid progress with TOP manifolds ensued, including, in 1969, Siebenmann's refutation of the Hauptvermutung and the Triangulation Conjecture. Here is the first connected account of Kirby's and Siebenmann's basic research in this area. The five sections of this book are introduced by three articles by the authors that initially appeared between 1968 and 1970. Appendices provide a full discussion of the classification of homotopy tori, including Casson's unpublished work and a consideration of periodicity in topological surgery.…
