from Pantheon
Price: $16.47

Customer Review:
Mlodinow has a good track record of making complicated subjects accessible to the average person. This book extends his track record.

from Little, Brown and Company

Customer Review:
Susskind describes the decades-long battle between the quantum mechanics community and the general relativists as to whether information is lost when objects pass through the event horizon of a black hole and the hole eventually evaporates.

Buy this book! Read it, and understand it. Then buy one for your Senators and Congressman, and insist they read and understand it.

4.Einstein: His Life and UniverseEinstein: His Life and Universe
from Simon & Schuster
Price: $12.21

Customer Review:
One of the biggest problems with this biography is its length. I agree that 550 pages isn't excessive for the most iconic intellectual of the 20th century, but the book is plagued by the constant repetition of information that was already given, presumably for emphasis. This wouldn't be a problem if... more info

5.Physics of the Impossible: A Scientific Exploration into the World of Phasers, Force Fields, Teleportation, and Time TravelPhysics of the Impossible: A Scientific Exploration into the World of Phasers, Force Fields, Teleportation, and Time Travel
from Doubleday
Price: $17.79

Customer Review:
Somewhat interesting for the average reader. However, truly educated guesswork, and not typical of Michio Kaku's ability of explaining difficult subject matter. I was disappointed in his many "Star Trek" examples, and it seems obvious this book was written for some unimportant spur of the moment... more info

6.This Is Your Brain on Music: The Science of a Human ObsessionThis Is Your Brain on Music: The Science of a Human Obsession
from Plume

Customer Review:
One can't expect a thorough look into the interplay of phychology, mind-body mechanics, and music in a shory popular book. That being said, this was an entertaining romp through the field.
The first seventy or so pages was essentially an introduction to music theory and how the mind can proces... more info

from Feral House
Price: $16.47

Customer Review:
Richard Hoagland has been my hero for many a year, and it is breathtaking to see all this information at last in writing. The disparity between what we're told, and the Truth about Space will make you Gasp. Then it will make you Mad. From statements from the Astronauts, to true history from NASA... more info

Stanton Friedman has once again delivered a knock out blow to skeptics and naysayers. After reading Flying Saucers and Science you will be thoroughly convinced as to the existence of extraterrestrials and the ongoing government cover up.

from Harper Paperbacks
Price: $11.16

Customer Review:
It isn't very often a book or an author has an opportunity to change lives and yet Lynne has provoked her readers to embrace a new way of living in this world. It is beyond The Secret, it is about being aware of your thoughts and taking the positive action to correct what is not working - to know... more info
