Evolution: A Very Short Introduction by Brian Charlesworth and Deborah Charlesworth
0-19-280251-8 / 978-0-19-280251-4
Evolution provides a unifying set of principals for the whole of biology; it also illuminates the relation of human beings to the universe and each other. Brian and Deborah Charlesworth introduce the general reader to some of the most important basic findings, concepts, and procedures of evolutionary biology as it has developed since the first publications of Darwin and Wallace on the subject, over 140 years ago.
Consciousness: A Very Short Introduction by Susan Blackmore
0-19-280585-1 / 978-0-19-280585-0
Consciousness, 'the last great mystery for science', has now become a hot topic. This is a clear overview of the subject that combines the perspectives of philosophy, psychology and neuroscience - unlike all the other books available on the subject.
Intelligence: A Very Short Introduction by Ian Deary
0-19-289321-1 / 978-0-19-289321-5
Ian Deary describes what psychologists have discovered about how and why people differ in their thinking powers. The issues discussed include whether there are several different types of intelligence, whether intelligence differences are caused by genes or the environment, the biological basis of intelligence differences, and whether intelligence declines or increases as we grow older.
Cosmology: A Very Short Introduction by Peter Coles
0-19-285416-X / 978-0-19-285416-2
'There is an embarrassment of books about the universe for the general reader, but few manage to pack so much, so elegantly, into such a compact space as this does. The book is generously illustrated.' The Guardian
Quantum Theory: A Very Short Introduction by John Polkinghorne
0-19-280252-6 / 978-0-19-280252-1
This book gives a lucid, exciting, and accessible account of the surprising and counterintuitive ideas that shape our understanding of the sub-atomic world. The main text makes no use of equations, but there is a Mathematical Appendix for those desiring stronger fare.
Readership: The ideal present for students, the knowledge-hungry, and general readers wanting to understand a subject quickly.
