The Catalog of Great Ideas by Michael Mathiesen

It hit me the other day after publishing my one hundredth book on Amazon that I had authored enough books that I could easily publish a catalog of my favorites.. I checked and I'm the only author on Amazon today who can boast a catalog of all his greatest hits. I'm not bragging, nor do I expect to win the Nobel Prize for any of these great ideas, but that's not because they are not worthy of the great award, but because I have as yet to make any of them become household words or ideas. I hope your reading of this catalog will change all that and propel at least one of them up to the bight spotlight of nationally known and/or generally accepted ideas made from pure genius.

[Spanish] - ESCUCHA ESTO ANTES DE ESTUDIAR COSMETOLOGÍA Información de Importancia para todo que qui

En este audio libro vamos hablar sobre la carrera cosmetología, les voy a platicar sobre que es, que hacemos, por qué es tan importante y si a ti te interesa estudiar esta carrera que te está llamando mucho la atención siento que este audio libro te va a servir para comprender un poquito los pros y contras, y en sí lo que es la carrera y lo que implica, entonces comenzamos. Antes de ir directo al grano quiero aclarar yo estudio dos carreras que es comunicación como yo les había contado en mi otro audio libro que subí, cosmetología y cuidados faciales, cosmetología que es la carrera de la que voy a hablar el día de hoy es una carrera técnica pero no por eso significa que sea menos importante quesea fácil porque muchas personas consideran que una carrera técnica es muy sencilla yo que estoy estudiando una carrera con un título más serio como podría considerarse y cosmetología quiero decirles que la verdad es una carrera súper importante con muchísima seriedad la técnica con lo que puedes hacer en el mundo laboral.

All Through the Night: Why Our Lives Depend on Dark Skies

Why darkness is so important – to plants, to animals, and to ourselves – and why we must protect it all costs. Darkness is the first thing we know in our human existence. Safe and warm inside the bubble of the womb, we are comfortable in that embracing dark. But as soon as we are bought into the light, we learn to fear the dark. Why? This book is a celebration of all things that go bump in the night and the joy that can be found when the sun goes down. As a society we have closed our curtains to the darkness, now Dani Robertson urges you to cast those curtains wide, step out of your front door and let the darkness pull you in. Some 99 per cent of Western Europeans live under light polluted skies, but what is this doing to our health? Our wellbeing? Our connection to the cycles of nature? Our wildlife, too, has been cast into the harsh glare of our light addiction, with devastating impacts. In this book Dani shares with you the excitement and adventure she has found when everyone else is tucked up in bed. She explores constellations and cultures, enjoys environmental escapades, all whilst learning why we are addicted to light and why it is ruining our lives. She’ll show you why the darkness is so important and why we must protect it all costs. You’ll become a crusader of Darkness and an expert on what we can do to stop the onward march of light pollution (clue: it’s as easy as the flick of a switch). Her life depends on darkness, and yours does too.

Alone but Not Lonely: Exploring for Extraterrestrial Life

Humans have always been fascinated by the possibility of extraterrestrial life, often wondering if we are alone in the universe. Drawing on nearly fifty years as a leader in planetary exploration, Louis Friedman brings into focus the subject of extraterrestrial life, separating knowledge from conjecture, fact from fiction, to draw scientific and technical conclusions that answer this enduring question. Friedman argues that intelligent life is probably rare in the universe (maybe even uniquely on Earth) but that simple life is likely abundant on millions or billions of planets waiting now to be discovered. He asserts that studying and searching for extraterrestrial life cannot be done by interstellar probes-due to the vastness of space and the comparative brevity of human lifespans-but it can be done remotely by a new technique involving the solar gravity lens that can magnify exoplanets by tens of billions. This technique will allow humankind to explore exoplanets and open up an exciting new field of comparative astrobiology. Wide-ranging in scope, this book discusses the history of searching for extraterrestrial life, the scientific evidence thereof, and finally his own conclusions on what's next.

[German] - Quantenphysik für Hippies

Der sinnsuchende Hippie Bob trifft die von Quantenphysik besessene Physikerin Alice. Diese scheinbar zufällige Begegnung führt sie auf eine atemberaubende Reise in die Natur der Wirklichkeit, welche ihr Leben für immer verändern wird. Geschrieben von Quantenphysikern und liebevoll illustriert macht 'Quantenphysik für Hippies' die bizarre Welt der Quantenphysik und deren unglaublichen Konsequenzen einfach verständlich. Die Quantenphysik ist in spirituellen Kreisen ein beliebtes Thema. Das finden wir gut! Aber wusstest du, dass sie sowohl von Gurus (Dispenza, Chopra etc) und Ideologien (Human Design, Gesetz der Anziehung etc) als auch deren Fans völlig missverstanden wird? Und da deutlich zu wenig Quantenphysiker anwesend sind um den Karren wieder aus dem Dreck zu ziehen, versinken unschuldige Wahrheits-und Sinnsuchende im Sumpf der Verblendung! Das finden wir nicht gut. Und deshalb schufen wir 'Quantenphysik für Hippies'! Es löst dieses Problem gleich doppelt: Erstens zeigt es Sinn- und Wahrheitssuchenden leicht verständlich die wahre Magie der Quantenphysik mit ihren unerwarteten Auswirkungen auf unsere Welt- und Selbstbild – ohne esoterische Irrwege und 100% wissenschaftlich fundiert. Und zweitens bringt es mehr Quantenphysiker in spirituelle Kreise. 'Quantenphysik für Hippies' bietet dir eine 100% wissenschaftlich korrekte, super leicht verständliche und tiefe Einführung in die Quantenphysik mit bildhaften und lebendigen Erklärungen, die hängen bleiben. eine 100% esoterik- und dogmenfreie Einführung in die Spiritualität, Selbsterkenntnis und Bewusstsein. eine tiefgehende Diskussion der philosophischen Konsequenzen der Quantenphysik und deren spannenden Auswirkungen auf unser Welt- und Selbstbild. Verpackt in eine fesselnde und humorvolle Geschichte. Dieses Buch richtet sich an alle, die nach Wahrheit und Sinn suchen und sich für Quantenphysik, Wissenschaft, Spiritualität und Bewusstsein interessieren – und endlich wissen wollen was wirklich Sache ist.

Cosmology: Cosmic Inflation, Quantum Worlds and Secrets of the Universe

Welcome to a journey through the depths of space and time, a voyage into the heart of the cosmos, and an exploration of the most profound mysteries our universe holds. This is a book about cosmology—a science that unveils the grandeur of the universe, its history, its structure, and its deepest secrets. It's a journey through the vast expanses of space, where galaxies collide, stars are born and die, and black holes lurk in cosmic shadows. But it's also a journey through the frontiers of human knowledge and imagination, where the quantum world meets the cosmic expanse. In these pages, we'll embark on an odyssey to understand the universe from its earliest moments to its potential far-off future. We'll delve into the mind-bending concept of cosmic inflation, a theory that suggests the universe underwent a rapid expansion in the tiniest fraction of a second after its birth, and explore the idea that our universe might be just one of countless others within a vast multiverse. But our journey doesn't stop there. We'll also peer into the quantum world, where the ordinary rules of reality break down, and delve into the intriguing notion of parallel universes—multiple worlds coexisting alongside our own, each with its own unique history and future. Are we alone in the cosmos, or is life a common occurrence throughout the universe? What is the purpose of our existence in this vast cosmic tapestry? As we embark on this cosmic adventure, keep in mind that you don't need to be an astrophysicist or a quantum physicist to join us. This journey is for anyone with a sense of wonder and curiosity about the universe and our place in it. Whether you're a seasoned science enthusiast or someone encountering these concepts for the first time, we'll navigate the cosmos together, unraveling its mysteries one chapter at a time.
