Simply Dirac
￥65.32
Paul Dirac?(1902–1984) was a brilliant mathematician and a 1933 Nobel laureate whose work ranks alongside that of Albert Einstein and Sir Isaac Newton. Although not as well known as his famous contemporaries Werner Heisenberg and Richard Feynman, his influence on the course of physics was immense. His landmark book,?The Principles of Quantum Mechanics, introduced that new science to the world and his “Dirac equation” was the first theory to reconcile special relativity and quantum mechanics. Dirac held the Lucasian Chair of Mathematics at Cambridge University, a position also occupied by such luminaries as Isaac Newton and Stephen Hawking. Yet, during his 40-year career as a professor, he had only a few doctoral students due to his peculiar personality, which bordered on the bizarre. Taciturn and introverted, with virtually no social skills, he once turned down a knighthood because he didn’t want to be addressed by his first name. Einstein described him as “balancing on the dizzying path between genius and madness.” In?Simply Dirac, author?Helge Kragh?blends the scientific and the personal and invites the reader to get to know both Dirac the quantum genius and Dirac the social misfit. Featuring cameo appearances by some of the greatest scientists of the 20th century and highlighting the dramatic changes that occurred in the field of physics during Dirac’s lifetime, this fascinating biography is an invaluable introduction to a truly singular man.

A Bit of a Twist
￥24.44
The twelve short stories presented in A Bit of A Twist are each mostly normal and ordinary, but somewhere in the story is a twist. In “David’s Not Here”, “Marriage Counselor”, “Down Home”, “River Road”, “Happily Ever After”, and “Blind Date”, the ending takes a bit of a twist from what you were probably expecting. “The Chateau de Puyguilhem” and “The Wish” take stories you’re already familiar with, and give the whole thing a bit of a twist. “Reunion”, “Eternal Youth”, and “Aliens Among Us” each have a bit of a mental twist. And “Air of Authority” shows what happens when you twist around words. As you read these stories, you will also discover that many of them involve some degree of revenge. Because, after all, what is revenge but twisting someone’s own actions back on them? And as always, each story in the Read on the Run series of anthologies is short, to suit your busy lifestyle.
Uncommon Pet Tales
￥24.44
Fifteen short stories involving pets. But don’t think for a moment that you’ll “See Spot Run”, or that Lassie will save her master who’s fallen in the well. Those are common pet tales, and these are Uncommon Pet Tales. Within this collection, you’ll find a little bit of romance, a little bit of revenge, a few ghosts, and some fantasy and magic. You’ll find some uncommon pets such as Katelynn, and Mr. MacCawber, and you’ll find some uncommon stories, such as Patience, and Schrodinger’s Other Cat. You’ll find stories of man’s (or woman’s) best friend, and stories where the animals are far from friendly. And you'll find some stories that simply refuse to fit into a category. As always, each story in the Read on the Run series of anthologies is short, to suit your busy lifestyle.?
A Wink and a Smile
￥32.62
An anthology of 18 short romance stories.? Not love stories, although some of them do include aspects of that.??But whereas love stories are often sad, each of the selections in A Wink and a Smile has either a 'happily-ever-after' ending, or at least a strong suggestion that this is where the characters are heading.? That doesn't mean these tales all sound the same; to the contrary, we've found quite a diverse collection of romances.??Yes, there are a couple of traditional romances, and there's a healthy handful of budding romances, but we've included a story set in the future, and a couple of fantasy tales.??Within this mix, you will meet several matchmakers and you'll see couples reconcile, and? even?a few stories that will make you laugh. As always, each story in the Read on the Run series of anthologies is short, to suit your busy lifestyle.
