| A Beginner's Guide to Constructing the Universe: The Mathematical Archetypes of Nature, Art, and Science, a Voyage from 1 to 10 by Michael S. Schneider | |
|
Publisher: HarperCollins Publishers Format: Paperback, 351pp Pub. Date: September 1995 |
|
For those who know where to look, the principles that guide the construction of our world are plain to see, in everything from cucumbers to cathedrals. This spectacular volume shows us exactly where we can look - in our buildings, our language, our myths, our environment, even our own bodies - to behold the myriad ways in which the numbers one through ten serve as the universe's blueprint. Modern scientists are reaffirming what the ancients observed in their world and taught in their myths: that a consistent language of geometric design underpins every level of the universe, from atoms through galaxies. Michael Schneider translates that surpassingly eloquent language in lyrical, straightforward prose and hundreds of eye-opening illustrations. Here we learn, for example, why circles have come to symbolize perfection, why triangles are associated with divinity and balance, why squares represent generation and pentads regeneration, why multiples of six are used to measure time and space, and why seven has always been associated with mystery. Schneider makes the abstract real with dozens of easy exercises the reader can do using pencil, paper, compass, and straightedge that demonstrate how our astonishingly intricate world unfolds from the pure simplicity of naturea's geometry. A Beginner's Guide to Constructing the Universe combines science, philosophy, and common sense in a thoroughly novel way, showing us the world's wonder and harmony hidden in familiar places, a wisdom neither ancient nor New Age but timeless. |

| The Facts of Life and Other Dirty Jokes by Willie Nelson | |
|
Publisher: Random House, Incorporated Format: Hardcover, 232pp Pub. Date: January 2002 |
|
If you had to give America a voice, it’s been said more than once, that voice would be Willie Nelson’s. For more than fifty years, he’s taken the stuff of his life-the good and the bad-and made from it a body of work that has become a permanent part of our musical heritage and kept us company through the good and the bad of our own lives. Long before he became famous as a performer, Willie Nelson was known as a songwriter, keeping his young family afloat by writing songs-like “Crazy”-that other people turned into hits.So it’s fitting, and cause for celebration, that he has finally set down in his own words, a book that does justice to his great gifts as a storyteller. In The Facts of Life, Willie Nelson reflects on what has mattered to him in life and what hasn’t. He also tells some great dirty jokes. The result is a book as wise and hilarious as its author. It’s not meant to be taken seriously as an instruction manual for living-but you could do a lot worse. Willie Nelson is one of America's most beloved musicians, with a gift for storytelling that has made him into a roots music icon. In his new book, Nelson invites readers to join him on tour as he performs, reminisces about old friends, and scribbles late into the night. A warm, funny book that includes the complete lyrics to several of Nelson's most famous songs, The Facts of Life is a wonderful journal of Nelson's thoughts about music, humor, and life. |
