Product Description
An astronomer recounts the investigation by NASA scientists of a group of ancient asteroids that fell from Mars to Earth, relicts that revealed signs of primitive life on Mars, and explores the implications of the discovery. 40,000 first printing.

Amazon.com Review
This is the first book to attempt a full account of NASA's August 1996 announcement that an ancient Martian meteorite discovered in Antarctica may contain evidence of extraterrestrial life. Goldsmith treads carefully, knowing full well that this purported finding could become the cold fusion phenomenon of the 1990s--bogus science that misleads the public. The book shows several signs of its hasty composition, but such is the price of beating the competition to market. Mars fans may also want to examine The Case for Mars by Robert Zubrin and Are We Alone? by Paul Davies.

Product Description
Originally published in Italian in 1976, this book describes the methods scientists use to investigate the physical world. It is ideal for students and teachers of science and the philosophy of science. It is both a high-level popularization and a critical appraisal of these methods, describing important advances in physics and analyzing the historical development, value, reliability and philosophical implications of the way physicists approach the problems confronting them. The introductory chapter on the meaning of physical theories and the mathematical tools used to develop them is followed by a general discussion on the foundations of physics under four major headings: the physics of the reversible, the physics of the irreversible, microphysics, and cosmology. Throughout, the subject matter of physical theories is linked to discussion of the attendant philosophical and epistemological implications, such as the validity of the theories, inductive inference, causal explanation, probability, the role of observation and the reality of physical objects.

Product Description
This remarkable work continues the progress report started six years ago with Man and Dolphin. In his earlier book. Dr. Lilly documented a dramatic first: the idea and basic first steps of epochal scientific experiments to find ways to communicate with another species. In his newest work, he details the discoveries about the dolphin's abilities, current ideas about his intellect, and the paradoxes of inter-species communication, developed since 1961. That the bottlenose dolphin (or Tursiops truncatus) has a brain larger than man's, that it has a sophisticated form of vocal communication,that it, to a certain extent, "understands" man has become generally known. What has been virtually unexplored is the astonishing intricacy and nonhuman nature of the dolphin's intelligence and yet the profound relevance of that intelligence to man's place in Nature. The dolphin, for example, is a systematic communicator - a trait long considered unique to human beings. The dolphin is a startling "moral" creature ( who acts along lines similar to our own Golden Rule) - again, something always thought of as a "human" characteristic. Dr. Lilly demonstrates that dolphins can clearly distinguish between dictated words and vocal instructions when responding to man with airborne "words." When dolphins are displeased with human behavior - which they frequently are - they will "train" willing men to act correctly. In short, The Mind of the Dolphin may upset man's implicit preconceptions about his own intellectual, ethical, and social superiority. Dr. Lilly's fascinating documented book stands at the frontier of a new field of scientific inquiry.
