《The Selfish Gene：40th Anniversary Edition》 by Richard Dawkins(Author) Product details Paperback: 496 pages Publisher: OUP Oxford; 4 edition (9 Jun. 2016) Language: English ISBN-10: 0198788606 ISBN-13: 978-0198788607 Product Dimensions: 19.6 x 3.6 x 13.2 cm Product De*ion As influential today as when it was first published, The Selfish Gene has become a classic exposition of evolutionary thought. Professor Dawkins articulates a gene's eye view of evolution - a view giving centre stage to these persistent units of information, and in which organisms can be seen as vehicles for their replication. This imaginative, powerful, and stylistically brilliant work not only brought the insights of Neo-Darwinism to a wide audience, but galvanized the biology community, generating much debate and stimulating whole new areas of research. Forty years later, its insights remain as relevant today as on the day it was published. This 40th anniversary
《The Road To Reality》 by Rouse Ball Professor of Mathematics Roger Penrose (Author) Product details Paperback: 1099 pages Publisher: Vintage Books USA; Reprint edition (2 Jan. 2007) Language: English ISBN-10: 0679776311 ISBN-13: 978-0679776314 Product Dimensions: 15.5 x 3 x 23.6 cm Product De*ion Roger Penrose, one of the most accomplished scientists of our time, presents the only comprehensive and comprehensible account of the physics of the universe. From the very first attempts by the Greeks to grapple with the complexities of our known world to the latest application of infinity in physics, The Road to Reality carefully explores the movement of the smallest atomic particles and reaches into the vastness of intergalactic space. Here, Penrose examines the mathematical foundations of the physical universe, exposing the underlying beauty of physics and giving us one the most important works in modern science writing.

本书从物理学而不是数学概念的角度介绍了目前动力系统中均匀双曲吸引子研究的进展小结构稳定的吸引子表现出强烈的*性，但是对于动力系统中函数和参数的变化不敏感。基于双曲混沌的特征，本书将展示如何找到物理系统中的双曲混沌吸引子，以及怎样设计具有双曲混沌的物理系统。 本书可以作为研究生和高年级本科生教材，也可以供大学教授以及物理学、机械学和工程学相关研究人员参考。
When James Bowen found an injured, ginger street cat curled up in the hallway of his sheltered accommodation, he had no idea just how much his life was about to change. James was living hand to mouth on the streets of London and the last thing he needed was a pet. Yet James couldn't resist helping the strikingly intelligent tom cat, whom he quickly christened Bob.
