Hardback. Condición: Good. Did you know-- - It took more than an iceberg to sink the Titanic.- The Challenger disaster was predicted.- Unbreakable glass dinnerware had its origin in railroad lanterns.- A football team cannot lose momentum. - Mercury thermometers are prohibited on airplanes for a crucial reason.- Kryptonite bicycle locks are easily broken. Things fall apart is more than a poetic insight--it is a fundamental property of the physical world. Why Things Break explores the fascinating question of what holds things together (for a while), what breaks them apart, and why the answers have a direct bearing on our everyday lives. When Mark Eberhart was growing up in the 1960s, he learned that splitting an atom leads to a terrible explosion--which prompted him to worry that when he cut into a stick of butter, he would inadvertently unleash a nuclear cataclysm. Years later, as a chemistry professor, he remembered this childhood fear when he began to ponder the fact that we know more about how to split an atom than we do about how a pane of glass breaks. In Why Things Break, Eberhart leads us on a remarkable and entertaining exploration of all the cracks, clefts, fissures, and faults examined in the field of materials science and the many astonishing discoveries that have been made about everything from the explosion of the space shuttle Challenger to the crashing of your hard drive. Understanding why things break is crucial to modern life on every level, from personal safety to macroeconomics, but as Eberhart reveals here, it is also an area of cutting-edge science that is as provocative as it is illuminating. An engaging personal account not just of the physics and chemistry of materials but of the ethics, economics, and politics of innovation, with delightful bonuses on topics from the origins of 'ghostly' noises in old houses to the amazing coevolution of armor and armor-piercing projectiles. If it ain't broke, Mark Eberhart can tell you why--and explain equally well why a shatterproof world remains beyond our reach.--Edward Tenner, author of Our Own Devices and Why Things Bite Back I don't remember a book that has taught me so much, nor previously encountering a teacher like the marvelous Mark Eberhart, who in Why Things Break provides enlightening and thoroughly captivating scientific explanations of subjects ranging from the structural failures leading to the sinking of the Titanic to everyday, no-less-fascinating topics such as the reason why, even at the same temperature, winter days always seem so much colder in Boston than in Denver.--Richard Restak, M.D., author of Mozart's Brain and The Fighter Pilot Eberhart brings his insights to the reader by weaving personal anecdotes--from his childhood fear that cutting a stick of butter would release the energy of the atoms within to his arrival in Boston for an interview with MIT without a suitable winter coat--into a fascinating discussion of the forces that hold atoms and molecules together. A lively, unvarnished look at chemistry on the cutting edge. --Kirkus Reviews.…

Paperback. Condición: Good. What if we looked at the things we see wrong in the world with empathy, dug below the surface of people's disappointing actions to experience their pain, and understood hurtful words as a cry for consolation? What if we responded with sorrow instead of outrage, and love instead of hate? If we could do all that, we'd be living as Jesus taught us in the Beatitudes. Fr. Casey Cole, OFM--host of YouTube's Breaking the Habit--wants you to embrace the pain caused by anger and division in the world and then look to Jesus for hope through the Beatitudes. "The only thing that evangelizes is love," Cole writes. "The only thing that will ever change someone's mind, cause them to turn from their evil ways, accept Jesus into their lives, and become a peacemaker themselves is love. If we want to make peace in our world, we must put down our weapons and take up the cross." In The Way of Beatitude, Cole explores the meaning of the words Jesus preached at the beginning of the Sermon on the Mount (Matthew 5: 3-12) and shows you how to get beyond apathy and despair and help Christ bring about the Kingdom of Heaven in the here and now. The Beatitudes, he says, offer a path toward radical change. You will learn how to: surrender to the mercy of God; face with courage the heartache caused by division and animosity; be patient and lean into God's providence; hunger always for justice; commit to solidarity with the powerless and the broken; be liberators of the oppressed; and lay down your life for the sake of God's Kingdom. By sharing his own stories of striving toward supreme blessedness, Cole shows you how to surrender power and move beyond the harmful divisiveness of our world. Chapters include reflection questions and practical ideas for living the Beatitudes.…

Paperback. Condición: Very Good. Real life is long on law and short on grace the demands never stop, the failures pile up, and fear sets in.Life requires many things from us a stable marriage, successful children, a certain quality of life.Anyone living inside the guilt, anxiety, and uncertainty of daily life knows that the weight of life is heavy.We are all in need of some relief.Bestselling author Tullian Tchividjian is convinced our exhausted world needs a fresh encounter with God's inexhaustible grace His one-way love. Sadly, however, Christianity is perceived as being a vehicle for good behavior and clean living and the judgments that result from them rather than the only recourse for those who have failed over and over and over again. Tchividjian convincingly shows that Christianity is not about good people getting better. If anything, it is good news for bad people coping with their failure to be good. In thismanifesto,Tchividjian calls thechurch backto the heart of the Christian faith grace. It is time for us toabandon our play-it-safereligion, and to get drunk on grace. Two hundred-proof, unflinching grace. It s shocking and scary, unnatural and undomesticated but it is also the only thing that can set us free and light the church and the world on fire.…
