One by one, prominent staff physicians of Covenant Hospital in Chicago are dying under mysterious circumstances. When Dr. Harris...
Physics is the science that deals with the properties and interrelationship of matter and energy. It studies mechanics, heat, light, sound, electricity, magnetism, radiation, and atomic structure. This tale stretches from 2000 BCE to 1945 and introduces the reader to the brilliant men, from Thales of Miletos to Albert Einstein, who, working alone or collaboratively, made it all possible.

One of their main attractive features is the ability to accurately represent fairly general functions with a small number of adaptively chosen wavelet coefficients, as well as to characterize the smoothness of such f...
