Ask a scientist about Hollywood, and you’ll probably get eye rolls. But ask someone in Hollywood about science, and they’ll see dollar signs: moviemakers know that science can be the source of great stories, with all the drama and action that blockbusters require. That’s a huge mistake, says Randy Olson: Hollywood has a lot to teach scientists about how to tell a story—and, ultimately, how to do science better. With Houston, We Have a Narrative, he lays out a stunningly simple method for turning the dull into the dramatic. Drawing on his unique background, which saw him leave his job as a working scientist to launch a career as a filmmaker, Olson first diagnoses the problem: When scientists tell us about their work, they pile one moment and one detail atop another moment and another detail—a stultifying procession of “and, and, and.”

"Сокрытие ровной поверхности Земли"- это полная версия перевода книги Эрика Дьюбэя “The flat-earth conspiracy”.
Всего 300 страниц богато иллюстрированного текста может донесут до любознательного читателя истину о том, какая же форма того места во вселенной, где все мы живём, какие заблуждения нам привиты с детства, и какие тайны скрываются за првычными для нас понятиями. Слово тайна может быть не совсем уместно в данном контексте, потому что речь идёт лишь о том, чего мы просто пока не знаем. Знание меняет наши понятия, жизненные цели и мировоззрение, и помогает прожить жизнь не бесцельно, а с пользой. Многие вещи описанные в этой книге могут сначала показаться невозможными и не укладывающимися в привычные рамки, но надо просто набраться терпения, внимательно отнестись к написанному и задуматься, так ли это невероятно...
