Chaos is deep, even frightening in its holistic embrace of nature as paradoxically complex, wildly disorderly, random and yet stable in its infinite stream of ``self-similarities.'' A ground-breaking book about what seems to be the future of physics. A work of popular science in the tradition of Stephen Hawking and Carl Sagan, this 20th-anniversary edition of James Gleick’s groundbreaking bestseller Chaos introduces a whole new readership to chaos theory, one of the most significant waves of scientific knowledge in our time. Gleick traces the ideas of these little-known pioneersincluding Mitchell Feigenbaum and his Butterfly Effect Benoit Mandelbrot, whose ``fractal'' concept led to a new geometry of nature and Joseph Ford who countered Einstein with ``God plays dice with the universe. ""Chaos'' is what a handful of theorists steeped in math and computer know-how are calling their challengingly abstract new look at nature in terms of nonlinear dynamics. Science readers who have gone through relativity theory, quantum physics, Heisenbergian uncertainty, black holes and the world of quarks and virtual particles only to be stunned by recent Grand Unified Theories (GUTS) will welcome New York Times science writer Gleick's adventurous attempt to describe the revolutionary science of chaos. As they prepare to battle it, yet another.

Will she realize her dream of college? Will the Whittakers bond again? Just you guess. Love simmers, eventually Maribeth tells Tom everything, and he tells his parents. Guess who's eating at the diner? It's Tom. Dad roars her off to a convent for unwed mothers, but she leaves and de-buses at a friendly-looking town where she's hired as a waitress. Sure enough, Paul returns to his regular girl, and Maribeth is preggers. But rotten BMOC Paul, undeterred by navy blue, seduces the innocent Maribeth. Switch to Iowa and pretty, gifted Maribeth, oppressed by a hidebound father who forces her to go to the high school prom in a navy blue dress with long sleeves. By the following summer (1952) the family has shattered. The Whittaker family-John (``a warm, caring man''), teacher Liz, 15-year-old Tom (sterling athlete and student), and 5-year-old Annie (quite adorable)-are in the midst of a cozy Illinois Christmas (hot chocolate, skating, the works) when suddenly little Annie is dead of meningitis. 16, etc.), in which a family tragedy, the plight of a unwed teen mother-to-be, and the drift of a grieving teenage boy conclude in a happy ending that, like a technicolor sunset, can be sighted from some distance.

It’s an intimate relationship, one that allows jumper and pilot to be in each other’s minds … and it’s too soon for Jax. But to do that, Jax has to be plugged into the ship with the pilot. Jax has the ability to sense the beacons in grimspace-landmarks or doorways that mark where in grimspace you are. Jax’s genetic makeup allows her to navigate through grimspace, a kind of dimension that allows people to bend space so they can travel great distances. So when a stranger offers to spring her out of the pyschiatric facility she’s being kept in, Jax has nothing to lose.īut to get out, the rescue ship needs a navigator and Jax is the only one on board. In any case, it looks like she’s going to be the scapegoat. Jax isn’t sure what happened, and she’s starting to believe that maybe it was her fault. Sirantha Jax is the sole survivor of a terrible spaceship crash that killed not only a prominent dignitary but also Jax’s lover. I’ve re-read Grimspace at least three times before, and each time, I’m compelled to read every word to savour the story of Jax and March. I’m late for my re-read challenge review, but I’m blaming Ann Aguirre.

Our lives have changed dramatically from the pandemic and righteous protests against police brutality, a devastating economic downturn and political chaos. How will I move forward to create a sustainable life for myself and contribute my skills to my community? During the pandemic I have had the opportunity to spend quality time with myself asking: In the most challenging two years of my life (2018-2020), I moved 5 times (twice during the pandemic) experienced heartbreak, loss, health issues, etc. Shay Youngblood, in my home studio photo credit: Carolyn Miller. First is Genevieve, a 21 year old soldier with a group of survivors that was once a part of the military and is now doing its best to carve a safe haven out of a forest in New York. The story is told from three different points of view, rotating chapter to chapter. Nothing too groundbreaking there, but who doesn’t love a good post-apocalyptic character drama? and the characters are pretty great. The infected, or ‘Ferals’, sleep at night and hunt/scavenge for food during the day, forcing the survivors to live nocturnally and hide during the day (hence the title). At the most basic level, it’s the story of three different survivors and the people close to them doing their best to get by, six years after the outbreak of a zombie-like infection that reduces people to their most base feral instincts. It is an extremely good original story though.Ĭharon Docks At Daylight is a zombie survival story by Zoe Reed (with a great title, but more on that in a bit). Hey folks, it’s book rec time again!

Mick grew up with no advantage in life, but was determined to be a success–and he is. On the day of his birth he was given to a woman who was paid for her secrecy. Mick is the bastard son of the Duke of Hedley, and is aware of his parentage. While there Aslyn and Kip bump (literally) into Fancy Trewlove and her brother Mick.Įxcept this is no accidental meeting. Aslyn yearns for adventure (in the great wide somewhere) and convinces Kip to take her on an outing to the Cremorne Gardens. She’s been sheltered her whole life, and is expected to marry the duke’s son and heir, Kip. Lady Aslyn Hastings is an orphaned noblewoman who has been raised in the household of the Duke of Hedley. It did, however, teach me about the language of parasols. As much as I appreciated other aspects of the novel, my frustration with the overall plotline carried through the whole book. I read Beyond Scandal and Desire while I was on vacation, and while it may have worked really well for me five years ago, current Elyse is really frustrated with heroes who use the heroine as a device for their revenge. “Cosimano, in the first book of a duology, takes a familiar concept and adds a wild twist what Jack and Fleur do not realize is that their rebellion is going to alter everything. “ This is an enjoyably edgy novel with a great premise, filled with adventure, loss, love and suspense.” –School Library Journal Fans of Holly Black and April Genevieve Tucholke will hope that their time with these characters is not yet up.” –Bulletin of the Center for Children’s Books It’s the scenes wherein the Seasons whip up their elemental powers that really grab attention. “The premise of Seasons, the thrill of Jack and his crew’s escape, and the swoony romance between Jack and Fleur are more than enough. Cosimano tells a story of the bonds of friendship and the power of hope for the future.” –Kirkus Reviews “A solid urban fantasy with a novel premise. “I couldn’t read this book fast enough–captivating on every level.” –Megan Shepherd, New York Times Bestselling Author Armentrout, #1 New York Times Bestselling Author “Enticing and thrilling, Seasons of the Storm is flawless and addictive.” –Jennifer L. |
