The distinguishing feature of experimental psychology is not so
much the nature of its theories as the methods used to test their
validity. The first edition of Experimental Design and Statistics
provided a clear and lucid introduction to these methods and the
statistical techniques which support them. For this new edition the
text has been revised, the coverage of two-sample tests has been
extended, and new sections have been added introducing one-sample
tests, linear regression and the product-moment correlation
coefficient.
Problems associated with the applications of experimental design
and how to use observations of behaviour in research are key
questions for all introductory students of psychology. This new and
expanded edition provides them with an invaluable text and source.
Surfing the Cosmos is an original book of photographs and text that
visually explores the high/low of energy in the slums of Rio de
Janeiro as compared with the high-tech physics of CERN, where
discovering the origins of the universe and the elementary
particles from which it is made are examined. Within this visual
story are the unplanned beautiful drawings that humans make in
space with electrical wires, whether from the favela or CERN. These
"drawings" inspired a series of artworks/photographs that are
pictured in this book, often along with their photographic source
or the spirit of the community from which they are derived (either
favela or CERN). The human energy of the favela is also mirrored in
CERN with one specific comparison of the graffiti from Rio and the
chalkboards of CERN, both viewed as works of art and sources that
motivated the author's response as demonstrated in his previous
works through examples including paintings, fashion scarves,
handmade rugs from Nepal, bamboo cotton face masks along with
surfboards (chalkboards) and skatedecks.

If you have ever wondered how we get from the awesome impersonality
of the Big Bang universe to the point where living creatures can
start to form, and evolve into beings like you, your friends and
your family, wonder no more. Steve Miller provides us with a tour
through the chemical evolution of the universe, from the formation
of the first molecules all the way to the chemicals required for
life to evolve. Using a simple Hydrogen molecule - known as
H-three-plus - as a guide, he takes us on a journey that starts
with the birth of the first stars, and how, in dying, they pour
their hearts out into enriching the universe in which we live. Our
molecular guide makes its first appearance at the source of the
Chemical Cosmos, at a time when only three elements and a total of
11 molecules existed. From those simple beginnings, H-three-plus
guides us down river on the violent currents of exploding stars,
through the streams of the Interstellar Medium, and into the delta
where new stars and planets form. We are finally left on the shores
of the sea of life. Along the way, we meet the key characters who
have shaped our understanding of the chemistry of the universe,
such as Cambridge physicist J.J. Thomson and the Chicago chemist
Takeshi Oka. And we are given an insider's view of just how
astronomers, making use of telescopes and Earth-orbiting
satellites, have put together our modern view of the Chemical
Cosmos.
