Why can humans alone invent? In The Pattern Seekers, Cambridge University psychologist Simon Baron-Cohen makes a case that autism is as crucial to our creative and cultural history as the mastery of fire. Indeed, Baron-Cohen argues that autistic people have played a key role in human progress for 70,000 years, from the first tools to the digital revolution. How? Because the same genes that cause autism enable the pattern seeking that is essential to our species' inventiveness.

In the early 1900s, many Americans actually believed we had discovered intelligent life on Mars, as bestselling science writer David Baron chronicles in The Martians, his truly bizarre tale of a nation swept up in Mars mania. At the center of Baron's historical drama is Percival Lowell, the Boston Brahmin and Harvard scion, who observed "canals" etched into the surface of Mars. Lowell devised a grand theory that the red planet was home to a utopian society that had built gargantuan ditches to funnel precious meltwater from the polar icecaps to desert farms and oasis cities.

This audiobook covers Volume 1 (Books I to XIX) of "The Spirit of the Laws" (French: De "l'esprit des lois", also sometimes called "The Spirit of Laws").

The Little Baron Trump is a man of adventure. He and his dog Bulger have already braved many adventures together, but at the time our story opens, they are kind of dull at home, upset with the increasing familiarity of both two- and four legged neighbours. What to do? Luckily, an old manuscript of the learned Spaniard, Don Constantino Bartolomeo Strepholofidgeguaneriusfum, falls into his hands, and off he goes to a journey to the centre of the earth. This is a remarkable book from 1893, blending the tradition of the Münchhausen stories with more modern fantasy and science fiction. - Summary ...

In the scorching summer of 1878, with the Gilded Age in its infancy, three tenacious and brilliant scientists raced to Wyoming and Colorado to observe a rare total solar eclipse. One sought to discover a new planet. Another - an adventuresome female astronomer - fought to prove that science was not anathema to femininity. And a young megalomaniacal inventor, with the tabloid press fast on his heels, sought to test his scientific bona fides and light the world through his revelations.

Numeri, figure geometriche e relazioni matematiche sono dovunque attorno a noi, talvolta in forma evidente, più spesso annidati nei meccanismi di funzionamento dell'universo. Ma in che modo - e perché - queste creazioni astratte della mente umana riescono a descrivere il mondo concreto dei fenomeni naturali, da quelli più familiari a quelli che hanno luogo nelle profondità della materia e del cosmo? Un filosofo e uno scienziato esplorano la capillare presenza della matematica nella natura, raccontando alcune delle sue manifestazioni più curiose e affascinanti.

More commonly know as "The Blue Book" written by "Baron von Steuben" this publication was key to organizing the young American military in the Revolutionary War with England. This book served both as a regulation and a how-to manual. Each officer was required to: purchase a copy upon being commissioned, carry it at all times, read it, and use it. (Summary by David Olson) A Librivox recording of The Life of Frederick William Von Steuben: Major General in the Revolutionary Army

In 1770, Baron DHolbach unveiled his groundbreaking work, Systeme de la Nature, which was long misattributed to M. de Mirabaud.

Stripped of arbitrary notions and characterized by its clarity, accessibility, and precision, this edition is designed for the everyday reader. This version is based on an undated English translation of Le Bon Sens, published around 1900, with no credit given to the translator. (Summary from editors preface)
