bubbles a ladybird expert book helen czerski

Part of the new Ladybird Expert series, Bubbles is a clear, surprising and entertaining introduction to the science of bubbles. Bubbles are beautiful, ephemeral, fun, fragile, jolly and slightly unpredictable. We''re all familiar with them, but we don''t often ask what they actually are. The great scientists of the Western world - Robert Hooke, Isaac Newton, Lord Rayleigh and more - studied bubbles seriously. They recognised that they had a lot to say about the nature of the physical world, and they poked, prodded and listened to find out what it was. In the years since, we''ve learned that this bulbous arrangement of liquid and gas does things that neither the gas or the liquid could do by itself. Written by the celebrated physicist and oceanographer Helen Czerski, Bubbles explores how everything from the way drinks taste to the Earth''s temperature are influenced by bubbles. This book has a message: never underestimate a bubble!Written by the leading lights and most outstanding communicators in their fields, the Ladybird Expert books provide clear, accessible and authoritative introductions to subjects drawn from science, history and culture.For an adult readership, the Ladybird Expert series is produced in the same iconic small hardback format pioneered by the original Ladybirds. Each beautifully illustrated book features the first new illustrations produced in the original Ladybird style for nearly forty years.

WINNER OF THE 2024 WAINWRIGHT PRIZE FOR CONSERVATION FINANCIAL TIMES 2023 HIGHLIGHT''Helen Czerski weaves together physics and biology, history and science, in a beautifully poetic way.''Professor Alice Roberts''In Helen Czerski''s hands, the mechanical becomes magical. An instant classic.''Tristan Gooley, author of How to Read Water''Blue Machine is quite simply one of the best books I have ever read.''Dr George McGavin, zoologist, entomologist and broadcaster''A fascinating dive into the essential engine that drives our world. Czerski brings the oceans alive with compelling stories that masterfully navigate this most complex system.''Gaia Vince, science journalist, broadcaster and author of Nomad Century All of the Earth''s ocean, from the equator to the poles, is a single engine powered by sunlight - a blue machine.Earth is home to a huge story that is rarely told - that of our ocean. Not the fish or the dolphins, but the massive ocean engine itself: what it does, why it works, and the many ways it has influenced animals, weather and human history & culture.In a book that will recalibrate our view of this defining feature of our planet, physicist Helen Czerski dives deep to illuminate the murky depths of the ocean engine, examining the messengers, passengers and voyagers that live in it, travel over it, and survive because of it. From the ancient Polynesians who navigated the Pacific by reading the waves to permanent residents of the deep such as the Greenland shark that can live for hundreds of years, she explains the vast currents, invisible ocean walls and underwater waterfalls that all have their place in the ocean''s complex, interlinked system.Timely, elegant and passionately argued, Blue Machine presents a fresh perspective on what it means to be a citizen of an ocean planet. The understanding it offers is crucial to our future. Drawing on years of experience at the forefront of marine science, Helen Czerski captures the magnitude and subtlety of Earth''s defining feature, showing us the thrilling extent to which we are at the mercy of this great engine.

Just as Freakonomics brought economics to life, so Storm in a Teacup brings physics into our daily lives and makes it fascinating. Our world is full of patterns. If you pour milk into your tea and give it a stir, you'll see a swirl, a spiral of two fluids, before the two liquids mix completely. The same pattern is found elsewhere too. Look down on the Earth from space, and you'll find similar swirls in the clouds, made where warm air and cold air waltz. In Storm in a Teacup, Helen Czerski links the little things we see every day with the big world we live in. Each chapter begins with something small - popcorn, coffee stains and refrigerator magnets - and uses it to explain some of the most important science and technology of our time. This is physics as the toolbox of science - a toolbox we need in order to make sense of what is around us and arrive at decisions about the future, from medical advances to solving our future energy needs. It is also physics as the toy box of science: physics as fun, as never before.

Co přesně je oceán? Písečná pláž, příboj a barevné rybky v korálových útesech, nebo nebezpečný vodní živel? Helen Czerski ho ve své nové knize chápe jako komplexní celoplanetární fyzikální stroj, který se řídí výhradně přírodními zákony a má rozhodující vliv na všechny aspekty našeho života. Seznámíme se postupně s jeho strukturou a vrstvami, prozkoumáme podmořské procesy, narazíme na plankton, tučňáky i na krále moří, jako jsou tuňáci nebo velryby. Především ale pochopíme, že všechno souvisí se vším a že tento motor je vyladěný tak jemně, že i zdánlivě nesouvisející aktivity člověka mohou jeho fungování narušit, což může mít nedozírné následky. Nebudete se muset prokousávat spoustou složité fyziky: poznatky oceánografie jsou v knize prezentovány maximálně přístupným způsobem a pomocí reálných příkladů ze všech koutů světa. Jedno je ale jisté: na oceán se odteď budete dívat úplně jinak.Jak pomohla znalost fyzikálních procesů v oceánu při objevení vraku Titanicu?K čemu se může v moři hodit trus plejtváka obrovského?Jak ovlivnil zooplankton život žen ve skotských rybářských vesnicích?Je v hlubinách oceánu světlo a teplo, nebo tma a chlad?

From the bestselling author Helen Carr, a thrilling new history of the fourteenth century – a time of catastrophe and conflict that shaped England for centuries to come. ***THE TOP TEN BESTSELLER AND TIMES BEST BOOKS OF 2025 PICK***'A sparkling popular history which brings the Middle Ages' most terrible century to life for a new generation'Dan Jones'Tells the story of the 14th-century Plantagenets with verve'The Times'A highly engaging re-evaluation of a tumultuous century'ObserverThe death of Edward I in 1307 marked the beginning of a period of intense turmoil and change in England. The fourteenth century ushered in the beginning of the bloody Hundred Years’ War with France, an epic conflict with Scotland that would last into the sixteenth century, famine in Northern Europe and the largest human catastrophe in known history, the Black Death. Through the epic drama of regicide, war, the prolonged spectre of bubonic plague, religious antagonism, revolt and the end of a royal dynasty, this book tells the story of the fourteenth century via the lives of Edward II, Edward III and Richard II – three very different monarchs, each with their own egos and ambitions, each with their own ideas about England and what it meant to wield power. Alongside the lives of the last Plantagenets, it also uncovers lesser-known voices and untold stories to give a new portrait of a fractured monarchy, the birth of the struggle between Europeanism and nationalism, social rebellion and a global pandemic. Sceptred Isle is a thrilling narrative account of a century of revolution, shifting power and great change – social, political and cultural – shedding new light on a pivotal period of English history and the people who lived it. Praise for Sceptred Isle'A sweeping look at an era of upheaval, panic and change. Gripping, powerful history'Hallie Rubenhold'A cannily timed new history... [Sceptred Isle] tells the story of the 14th-century Plantagenets with verve'The Times'A highly engaging re-evaluation of a tumultuous century'Observer'Informative, anecdotal and entertaining... So many of the events of that tumultuous century find echoes today'Financial Times'Gripping... Carr is an eloquent guide to the human realities of a century that often has a hallucinatory quality: vivid, desperate and haunting in its glories and its terrors'Spectator'Fast-paced and thrilling... a remarkably evocative account of the high drama, excessive bloodshed and significant societal change during this tumultuous age... hugely enjoyable'Country Life'Excellent'Clive Anderson, Loose Ends (BBC Radio4)'In this vivid, finely researched book, Helen Carr takes us deep into England’s deadly fourteenth century and finds life and human colour. This is a sparkling popular history which brings the Middle Ages' most terrible century to life for a new generation'Dan Jones'Full of colour, with headlong energy, Sceptred Isle brings England’s calamitous fourteenth century to life vividly. While Fortune’s Wheel turns through cycles of famine, plague and war, Helen Carr’s engrossing narrative never loses sight of the complexity, and hope, of human experience'Helen Castor

''A rewarding glimpse of another world'' THE GUARDIANSeashells are the sculpted homes of a remarkable group of animals: the molluscs. These are some of the most ancient and successful animals on the planet, and they have fascinating tales to tell. Spirals in Time charts the course of shells through history, from the first jewelry and the oldest currencies through to their use as potent symbols of sex and death, prestige and war, not to mention a nutritious (and tasty) source of food. In this book, Helen Scales leads us on a journey into the realm of these undersea marvels. She goes in search of everything from snails that ''fly'' underwater to octopuses accused of stealing shells and giant mussels with golden beards.Shells are also bellwethers of our impact on the natural world. The effects of overfishing and pollution are, of course, serious concerns, but perhaps more worrying is ocean acidification, which causes shells to simply melt away. Spirals in Time urges you to ponder how seashells can reconnect us with nature, and heal the rift between ourselves and the living world.One of the books of the year – Nature, Guardian, The Economist, The Times
