Book Description
A History of Science is a five volume work written by two brothers dr. Henry Smith Williams and dr. Edward Huntington Williams with a goal to present fundamental principles of science, to point out how they have been discovered by our predecessors, and to trace the growth of these ideas from their first vague beginnings. The work is chronologically divided in five parts, each of them covering the epoch in which different branches of science have been lifted to the next level. Table of Contents: Volume I: Idea of the Science in Ancient History and Prehistoric Times (Egypt, Babylonia, Assyria, Ancient Greece and Rome); Volume II: The Beginnings of Modern Science (Science in Middle Ages, Eastern, Western, Galileo, Newton); Volume III: Modern Development of the Physical Sciences; Volume IV: Modern Development of the Chemical and Biological Sciences; Volume V: Aspects of Recent Science.
The Physics of Business Growth

Pages : 143
Book Description
“Captures the basic laws of growth companies and creates a new formula for success.” —Richard A. D’Aveni, Tuck School of Business, Dartmouth College Organic business growth is governed by its own natural laws—underlying truths that set the stage for growth and innovation, much in the way that Einstein’s theory of relativity accounts for the movement of objects in the space-time continuum. The most fundamental law is that uncertainty is the only certainty. Dominating forces are ambiguity and change; the processes at work involve exploration, invention, and experimentation. Unfortunately, these truths run counter to the principles of stability, predictability, and linearity that have long informed the design of our firms. The Physics of Business Growth explains how to create growth in today’s business environment, providing a roadmap and a set of practical tools to navigate its challenges. The book lays out a three-step formula that will prove invaluable to professionals who have the opportunity to influence growth now, as well as to tomorrow’s growth leaders, guiding them in (1) creating the right employee and organizational mindsets to enable growth, (2) building an internal corporate growth system, and (3) putting in place processes that result in identifying opportunities, launching growth experiments, and managing a growth portfolio. “Avoids the trap of magical thinking, which glosses over the messiness and complexity involved in growing a business. Rather, they offer a robust toolkit that growth leaders can adapt to their own circumstances.” —J. M. Ryan, Senior Fellow, Wharton Executive Education

Making "Nature"
Author: Melinda BaldwinPublisher: University of Chicago Press
ISBN: 022626159X
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 318
Book Description
Making "Nature" is the first book to chronicle the foundation and development of Nature, one of the world's most influential scientific institutions. Now nearing its hundred and fiftieth year of publication, Nature is the international benchmark for scientific publication. Its contributors include Charles Darwin, Ernest Rutherford, and Stephen Hawking, and it has published many of the most important discoveries in the history of science, including articles on the structure of DNA, the discovery of the neutron, the first cloning of a mammal, and the human genome. But how did Nature become such an essential institution? In Making "Nature," Melinda Baldwin charts the rich history of this extraordinary publication from its foundation in 1869 to current debates about online publishing and open access. This pioneering study not only tells Nature's story but also sheds light on much larger questions about the history of science publishing, changes in scientific communication, and shifting notions of "scientific community." Nature, as Baldwin demonstrates, helped define what science is and what it means to be a scientist.
