Nonfiction Science

Pleased to see a sizable enthusiasm for the title Physical Laws of the Mathematical Universe: Who Are We? I had set a giveaway at the Goodreads, and was charmed to see so many avid readers of nonfiction science entered, while many tagged the title as to-be-read. I with fervor packaged individual copies, included short notes, and mailed them off. So yes the 10 winners should be receiving their copies shortly. It’s on the way. A short recap, the title discusses an overarching scheme of how the universe and its parallel forms, exist and continue, and how we ourselves are part of the continuum that physical sciences reverberate.

I am still getting familiar with the Goodreads, and it is nice to find abundant science titles covered there, including many currently prominent science author profiles marking the widespread landscape of readership from all genres. Science surely has caught on as a choice read in recent times. Not science fiction, but the real hard core nonfiction science. If we cover its depths, the real science is far more awe inspiring, even mystical. Go into the depths of quantum mechanics, and you will see what I am implying. This isn’t to say that the creativity of fiction science is redundant. Fiction lets mind wander wherever it wants to wander. Nonfiction on the other hand gives so many fresh perspectives, and insights. Do take a look at the Goodreads for nonfiction. You may start from the few books I just commented on.

Popularity of nonfiction science isn’t as across-the-board on other places. I recently attended the illustrious Book Expo America 2016—mostly because my title Physical Laws of the Mathematical Universe was included for display at the Archway Publishing booth. Thousands of titles emblazoned the most prolific of booths—Simon and Schuster, Penguin, Random House, Harper Collins. A few nonfiction non-science titles caught my attention enough for me to mark them as to-be-read, and I have already read a couple of them, and they are engaging. But mostly, by nature and choice, I was inclined to scavenge for scientific tiles there. Thus the University booths, Oxford, Cambridge, Princeton, MIT, Chicago, Basic Books (known for publishing popular science titles in physical science; I have some very good titles from them) and a few others were a definite targets to be explored bit by bit. And I did get a bunch of interesting reads, and some good math fun books, but mostly hard core science (even popular) was missing across the whole show. The ones included were either in youth section, or very toned down popular. We need to go a little way to build up the real science ardor. I was swept with a feeling that my title at the Archway Publishing was perhaps the only one that extended into the serious scenes of physics and mathematics. I would still call it popular science. At the Simon and Schuster – Archway Publishing authors reception on the day two of the event, a few authors did tell me that they are going to read it!

Mini Takes on Titles I Recently Read

The Universe in the Rearview Mirror: How Hidden Symmetries Shape RealityThe Universe in the Rearview Mirror: How Hidden Symmetries Shape Reality by Dave Goldberg

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Liked the mathematical connotation, and the broad overview, not so much of toning down to meet extensive readership, but understandable for a popular genre.

Unknown Quantity: A Real and Imaginary History of AlgebraUnknown Quantity: A Real and Imaginary History of Algebra by John Derbyshire

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Methodically done. Crisply portrayed. Framed for general audience (must love mathematics though) yet doesn’t dampen down on analytical rigor.

When Breath Becomes AirWhen Breath Becomes Air by Paul Kalanithi

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Deeply heartening, and hauntingly gripping. Out of the two main sections–one on the personal experience with medicine, practice, and residency, and the later on his transition between life and death–the later stands out to be utterly original, and consummately engaging, for its strength, beauty, determination, and melody in the face of life that displayed its end.

For the messages in the first section, I happen to see a clearer dynamics via Atul Gawande’s titles, especially “Being Mortal.” The text although is delicately literary.

An Invisible Thread: The True Story of an 11-Year-Old Panhandler, a Busy Sales Executive, and an Unlikely Meeting with DestinyAn Invisible Thread: The True Story of an 11-Year-Old Panhandler, a Busy Sales Executive, and an Unlikely Meeting with Destiny by Laura Schroff

My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Nice warm story. Well done narrative, but at times excess on religious overtone.

Also it’s good to know that 626 people so far requested the title: Physical Laws of the Mathematical Universe: Who Are We?
