How to Teach Quantum Physics to Your Dog
2025 || Paperback || Chad Orzel || Simon & Schuster Nederland B.V.
Learn the basics of quantum physics with this clever, fun, and lighthearted introduction to modern physics based on a series of conversations with Chad Orzel and his dog Emmy.
When physics professor Chad Orzel went to the pound to adopt a dog, he never imagined Emmy. She wasn’t just a friendly mutt who needed a home. Soon she was trying to use the strange ideas of quantum mechanics for the really important things in her life: chasing critters, getting treats, and going for walks....
Determined
Life Without Free Will
2024 || Paperback || Robert M Sapolsky || Vintage Publishing
One of the world’s greatest scientists of human behaviour, the bestselling author of Behave, shows that free will does not exist - and sets out the disturbing yet liberating implications of accepting this fact.
‘One of the best scientist-writers of our time’ OLIVER SACKS
What if free will is an illusion? As Robert Sapolsky shows in this masterful account of the science of human behaviour, everything we think and do is caused by the luck of our biology and the influence of our environmen...
Modeling Life
The Mathematics of Biological Systems
2017 || Hardcover || Alan Garfinkel e.a. || Springer
This book develops the mathematical tools essential for students in the life sciences to describe interacting systems and predict their behavior. From predator-prey populations in an ecosystem, to hormone regulation within the body, the natural world abounds in dynamical systems that affect us profoundly. Complex feedback relations and counter-intuitive responses are common in nature; this book develops the quantitative skills needed to explore these interactions.

Einsteins grootste fout
het leven van een feilbaar genie
2017 || Paperback || David Bodanis || Ambo|Anthos || met inkijkexemplaar
David Bodanis (o.a. auteur van de bestsellers 'E=mc2', 'Het elektrisch universum' en 'Emilie & Voltaire') beschrijft in 'Einsteins grootste fout - Het leven van een feilbaar genie' hoe het succes van Einsteins grootste prestatie leidde tot zijn grootste mislukking. Berlijn, 1915. In hartje oorlogstijd ontwikkelt Albert Einstein een magnifieke zwaartekrachttheorie, waarin hij beweert dat het universum uitzet.

Vantoen.nu Kansspel in de natuur / Druk 90
2008 || Paperback || I. Asimov || Spectrum
Asimov is ook in ons land al genoegzaam bekend door diverse publikaties in de Prisma-reeks. Hij is niet alleen een voorstaand schrijver van science fiction, maar ook en misschien vooral een hogelijk gewaardeerd popularisator van natuurwetenschappelijke onderwerpen, die hij dan ook op briljante wijze weet te beschrijven. In dit boek behandelt hij niet een bepaald gebied, maar houdt hij als het ware een strooptocht door het gehele rijk der natuurwetenschap op zoek naar de merkwaardige rol van z...

Seeing Like a State
How Certain Schemes to Improve the Human Condition Have Failed
2020 || Paperback || James C. Scott || Yale University Press
“One of the most profound and illuminating studies of this century to have been published in recent decades.”—John Gray, New York Times Book Review “A powerful, and in many [ways] insightful, explanation as to why grandiose programs of social reform, not to mention revolution, so often end in tragedy. . . .
An important critique of visionary state planning.”—Robert Heilbroner, Lingua Franca Hailed as “a magisterial critique of top-down social planning” by the New York Times...
The Fontana History of Chemistry
2008 || Paperback || William Brock || HarperCollins Publishers
The Fontana History of Chemistry, which draws extensively on both the author’s own original research and that of other scholars world wide, is conceived as a work of synthesis. Nothing like it has been attempted in decades. Beginning with the first tentative chemical explorations where primitive technology and techniques were deployed, Dr Brock proceeds via the alchemists’ futile, but frequently profitable, efforts to turn lead into gold to recount the emergence of the modern discipline o...
Animal, Vegetable, Mineral?
How eighteenth-century science disrupted the natural order
2015 || Hardcover || Susannah Gibson || Oxford University Press
Since the time of Aristotle, there had been a clear divide between the three kingdoms of animal, vegetable, and mineral. But by the eighteenth century, biological experiments, and the wide range of new creatures coming to Europe from across the world, challenged these neat divisions. Abraham Trembley found that freshwater polyps grew into complete individuals when cut.
This shocking discovery raised deep questions: was it a plant or an animal? And this was not the only conundrum. What of cora...
