En octubre de 1927, veintinueve de los científicos más brillantes del mundo se reunieron en el Quinto Congreso Solvay. Diecisiete de ellos acabarían recibiendo el premio Nobel. Aquel encuentro, inmortalizado en una célebre fotografía, marcó el comienzo de una revolución intelectual sin precedentes. Allí, figuras como Marie Curie, Niels Bohr, Werner Heisenberg, Erwin Schrödinger o Albert Einstein debatieron los fundamentos de la recién nacida teoría cuántica, una forma radicalmente nueva de entender la naturaleza.

Perhaps the closest a human being comes to visiting another planet is to descend into the sea. In Soundings, Kennedy Warne connects his lifelong exploration of the underwater world with a global story of humanity’s relationship with the sea. Drawing on over 20 years of work for National Geographic, he shares experiences that range from diving with harp seals under the sea ice of the Gulf of St Lawrence to following the legendary ‘sardine run’ along South Africa’s Wild Coast; from watching turret-building ghost crabs in Arabia to witnessing the impact of dynamite fishing in the Philippines…

The richness of the Irish language is closely tied to the natural landscape and offers a more magical way of seeing the world. Most people associate Britain and Ireland with the English language, a vast, sprawling linguistic tree with roots in Latin, French, and German. But the inhabitants of these islands originally spoke another tongue. Look closely enough and English contains traces of the Celtic soil from which it sprung, found in words like bog, loch, cairn, and crag. Today, this heritage can be found nowhere more powerfully than in modern-day Gaelic.

Many believe that discoveries arise by chance or serendipity. The Engine of Scientific Discovery illustrates, for the first time, how we can actively speed up the pace of new breakthroughs by developing better methods and tools of discovery which enable us to see and think in entirely new ways. New tools are the lenses through which we discover what we often did not even know existed: improved microscopes uncovered microorganisms and viruses, x-ray methods exposed the structure of DNA, particle accelerators detected subatomic particles, and advanced telescopes revealed galaxies.

This playbook for thriving in the innovation era reveals the secret of high-performing teams through the captivating fable of Stone Soup, a story packed with profound insights into how human psychology, collaboration, and game theory intersect to create breakthrough results. Technology innovation failure has become so routine that no one is surprised by it, but the age of AI, remote teams, and constant disruption demands a new approach―one that embraces both individual self-interest and collective goals.

What if Bigfoot is not a zoological mystery, but an anthropological one? For more than a century, reports of large, upright, human-like figures have emerged from forests across the world. They appear briefly, avoid contact, leave little evidence, and vanish before certainty can form. Popular culture has treated these accounts as entertainment, folklore, or hoax. Science has largely dismissed them for lack of proof. The Anthropology of Bigfoot takes a different approach. Rather than asking whether Bigfoot can be proven, this book asks whether the question itself has been misunderstood.

"I think, therefore I am." With that one sentence, René Descartes changed the world. He wasn’t trying to start a revolution. He just wanted to know what was real and what wasn’t.

Descartes: The Man Who Split Mind from Matter is the story of a sickly kid turned soldier turned philosopher who accidentally rewired the modern world.
