Book covers: The Testing Ground and Quantum Physics
By Dave Jones on June 25, 2018
"Quantum Physics" book cover

Quantum Physics, Mini Black Holes and the Multiverse

Professor John Terning (UC Davis), L. William Poirier and Yasunori Nomura explore, explain and debunk common misconceptions about quantum physics, particle physics, space time and multiverse cosmology. Layperson-friendly language, followed by technical sections that explain basic equations and principles. (Springer International Publishing/2018)

 Grand Celebration" book cover

The Testing Ground: Grand Celebration 

Louis Evan Grivetti, professor emeritus, Department of Nutrition, and Sargent Thurber Reynolds conclude their trilogy The Testing Ground. Part 3 is set in a future time after third orb inhabitants have been pardoned from threat of extinction. Visitors will learn how bipeds from two different cosmic orbs worked together for mutual survival, and how previous religious and political confrontations altered the physical geography. (EditPros/April 2018)
