Solar and Space Physics: A Science for a Technological Society (2012) Paperback: $67.00
From the interior of the Sun, to the upper atmosphere and near-space environment of Earth, and outward to a region far beyond Pluto where the Sun's influence wanes, advances during the past decade in space physics and solar physics--the disciplines NASA refers to as heliophysics--have yielded spectacular insights into the phenomena that affect ... [read more]
Nuclear Physics: Exploring the Heart of Matter (2012) Paperback: $64.00
The principal goals of the study were to articulate the scientific rationale and objectives of the field and then to take a long-term strategic view of U.S. nuclear science in the global context for setting future directions for the field. Nuclear Physics: Exploring the Heart of Matter provides a long-term assessment of an outlook for nuclear ... [read more]
Research for a Future in Space: The Role of Life and Physical Sciences (2012) $64.00
During its more than 50-year history, NASA's success in human space exploration has depended on the agency's ability to effectively address a wide range of biomedical, engineering, physical sciences, and related obstacles. This achievement is made possible by NASA's strong and productive commitments to life and physical sciences research for ... [read more]
Recapturing a Future for Space Exploration: Life and Physical Sciences Research for a New Era (2011) Paperback: $85.75
More than four decades have passed since a human first set foot on the Moon. Great strides have been made in our understanding of what is required to support an enduring human presence in space, as evidenced by progressively more advanced orbiting human outposts, culminating in the current International Space Station (ISS). However, of the more ... [read more]
Research at the Intersection of the Physical and Life Sciences (2010) Paperback: $32.00
Traditionally, the natural sciences have been divided into two branches: the biological sciences and the physical sciences. Today, an increasing number of scientists are addressing problems lying at the intersection of the two. These problems are most often biological in nature, but examining them through the lens of the physical sciences can ...[read more]
Condensed-Matter and Materials Physics: The Science of the World Around Us (2007) Paperback: $52.00
The development of transistors, the integrated circuit, liquid-crystal displays, and even DVD players can be traced back to fundamental research pioneered in the field of condensed-matter and materials physics (CMPP). The United States has been a leader in the field, but that status is now in jeopardy. Condensed-Matter and Materials ...

All I ask from modern physics is my Mr. Fusion, my jetpack, and my personal starship. I'll give them a pass on my flying car. Is that too much to ask? On Mon, Mar 25, 2013 at 12:05 PM, Dave Gary <davegary@me.com> wrote:
