Zero: The Biography of a Dangerous Idea

Product Information

Stopping Climate Change’ provides a clear, thorough, up to date overview of everything you need to know about transitioning to ‘real’ zero, and what it’s going to take to get there. Real zero refers to a policy position of reducing greenhouse emissions, especially CO 2 emissions from fossil fuel use, to as close to zero as possible, rather than relying on capturing carbon or offsetting to achieve ‘net’ zero emissions.

Quella famosa macchina del fango tanto richiamata in alcune trasmissioni televisive è proprio ciò che può minare il concreto di questo libro. Seife stresses that zero is still a dangerous idea today. Its unintuitive nature leads people to misunderstand concepts like statistical uncertainty and vaccine efficacy. He ties our uneasiness with zero to cognitive biases like our inability to reason correctly about probability. Seife's discussions of these modern issues are insightful, showing the continued relevance of zero's contradictions.The Kaibil - one of the most brutal fighting forces I've ever heard of, jungle counter-insurgents from Guatemala.

Memang, untuk penggunaan luas, sistem bilangan Romawi menjadi ribet dan terlalu panjang. Karena, pada hakikatnya, bilangan Romawi nyaris tidak mengenal nilai tempat. Akibatnya, saat menuliskan angka dengan nilai bilangan besar, sangat sulit untuk menuliskan bilangan tersebut dengan angka Romawi. contohnya, bilangan 1888 jika ditulis dalam bilangan Romawi menjadi MDCCCLXXXVIII. Biar lebih dramatis lagi, coba tulis bilangan 14.792.483.388 dalam bilangan Romawi.

Once again, like with Gomorrah, a really good TV series was extrapolated from a shoddy nonfiction piece of journalism. I really liked ZeroZeroZero, the recent TV series, so I thought I’d give the book a read. Just like with Gomorrah, the book is mediocre, and that’s in the good parts.
