Hellraiser: Bloodline - The Original Screenplay

by Peter Atkins ...

You may well be a fan of the first two or three Hellraiser movies who found that your relationship with this fourth one was ... well, what shall we say? Complicated, maybe? You may, if you were of a kindly and forgiving nature, have found the film somewhat interesting, even occasionally entertaining, but you probably also found it confusing, felt that something just wasn't right about it. You may ... Read more

Life Is Short And So Is This Book

Chemistry

A Very Short Introduction

by Peter Atkins ...

Series series Very Short Introductions
Most people remember chemistry from their schooldays as largely incomprehensible, a subject that was fact-rich but understanding-poor, smelly, and so far removed from the real world of events and pleasures that there seemed little point, except for the most introverted, in coming to terms with its grubby concepts, spells, recipes, and rules. Peter Atkins wants to change all that. In this Very ... Read more

Four Laws That Drive the Universe

A Very Short Introduction

by Peter Atkins ...

Series series Very Short Introductions
The laws of thermodynamics drive everything that happens in the universe. From the sudden expansion of a cloud of gas to the cooling of hot metal, and from the unfurling of a leaf to the course of life itself - everything is directed and constrained by four simple laws. They establish fundamental concepts such as temperature and heat, and reveal the arrow of time and even the nature of energy ... Read more

The Origins of the Laws of Nature

by Peter Atkins ...

The marvellous complexity of the Universe emerges from several deep laws and a handful of fundamental constants that fix its shape, scale, and destiny. There is a deep structure to the world which at the same time is simple, elegant, and beautiful. Where did these laws and these constants come from? And why are the laws so fruitful when written in the language of mathematics? Peter Atkins ... Read more
