DOWNLOAD EBOOK#1 INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER AN ADAM SAVAGE BOOK CLUB PICK The book-length answer to anyone who ever put their hand up in math class and asked, “When am I ever going to use this in the real world?” “Fun, informative, and relentlessly entertaining, Humble Pi is a charming and very readable guide to some of humanity's all-time greatest miscalculations—that also gives you permission to feel a little better about some of your own mistakes.” —Ryan North, author of How to Invent Everything Our whole world is built on math, from the code running a website to the equations enabling the design of skyscrapers and bridges. Most of the time this math works quietly behind the scenes . . . until it doesn’t. All sorts of seemingly innocuous mathematical mistakes can have significant consequences. Math is easy to ignore until a misplaced decimal point upends the stock market, a unit conversion error causes a plane to crash, or someone divides by zero and stalls a battleship in the middle of the ocean. Exploring and explaining a litany of glitches, near misses, and mathematical mishaps involving the internet, big data, elections, street signs, lotteries, the Roman Empire, and an Olympic team, Matt Parker uncovers the bizarre ways math trips us up, and what this reveals about its essential place in our world. Getting it wrong has never been more fun.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKHudson freaking Langley. My polar opposite. Biggest flirt on the planet. Best man at my sister's wedding. Sleeping with him would be a huge mistake. Resisting him is suddenly a full-time job. I try to keep him at arm's length as we work together on all the pre-wedding festivities. But since he takes nothing seriously, I'm the one doing all the actual work while he tries mercilessly to seduce me. Sure, he's funny, sexy, and has a rear end you can bounce quarters off, but that's irrelevant at this stage of my life. I'm ready for a family, and I already made the decision to take that journey on my own. All I need is a little self-control. Until I saw another side of him that night at the engagement party. Next thing I knew it was goodbye control, hello consequences. Was it the worst mistake of my life? Or did I accidentally find my happily ever after? Love & Other Mistakes is a hilarious, opposites attract, steamy, romantic comedy. This story also includes horny horse rides, ginger burps, insane family game nights, a drunk grandma, nosy siblings, and sexy times. It's a stand-alone novel with a happy ending, because cliffhangers will kill your margarita buzz.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKFirst published in 1939, the original blurb reads: We have learned much lately concerning theories of laughter, yet laughter is only what we do about comedy. What is comedy itself? In this work the history of comic instances is combed in the search for the truth about comedy. Today, when laughter is stifled in so many countries, an exposition of comedy shows it to have a universal and necessary character. Comedy, as its natures reveals, is one criterion of the state of human culture; it is highly contemporary and requires freedom – but freedom for adventure, not for routine. After a chapter devoted to the explanation of a logical theory of comedy, the modern comedians are examined, and the humour of every one, from the Marx Brothers to surrealism, from Gertrude Stein to Mickey Mouse, from James Joyce to Charlie Chaplin, is shown to be a constant, inherent in the same set of unchanging conditions.
