Books Giveaway- I: Physics and Maths and What does it mean to be alive?

This is the first giveaway in series of many. Let me know through Facebook messenger, Google+ or Gmail if you are interested in taking these books. If you suspect that you know someone, who might be interested in these free books - share! I bet they will make great gifts! And thanks! :D
I will accept your donations ONLY if you feel inspired to make one. 

I hope the books find a curious reader! I encourage you to check the books out before deciding if you want the book.


1. The Road to Reality: This book is BOOKED now.
If your heart warms at the sound of 'physics' and the life is much more beautiful when you know the gorgeous mechanics of it, then this 1040-pages + could be your favorite addiction. My copy is in flawless hardcover format. It aint new but it could easily pass for one! 




2. Nonlinear Dynamics and Chaos: This book is BOOKED now. Of all books that I am giving away, this one is the hardest to part from. It stands as my favorite mathematics book inside out! This where dreams are written through nonlinear dynamics and take wings post bifurcation! 
Written by perhaps the only mathematician, whose articles have been regular in New York Times, this book has been a great read for me. 
My copy has some pencil marks in the initial chapters. It is slightly marked and morphed on one of its edges. There is a story behind this metamorphosis. In short the bag that the book was in, got soaking wet in rain and stuff inside the bag started leaching colors onto each other. 


3. Darwin's Dangerous Idea, Evolution and the Meanings of Life: So, you think that 'The Selfish Gene' was a great book? You ain't seen no great book, my fren'! Read this one up!
This book is perhaps most enjoyed with Darwin's evolutionary theory on mind when pondering questions like- "Woah Life!
Thee rocks! But howzz? And whyyz" or if you are curious about the purpose and phenomenon of this life and entertain a scientific bent of mind - then this book can help nudge the mind many notches higher in evolution.
In 1995 this book was National Book Award Finalist. My copy is in great condition with no markings or signs of wear and tear.

4. The Quantum Universe, Everything that can happen does happen: Do you want to read about the following questions and some quantum answers to them: What is the music of atoms? What is illusion and what is real? Is the universe in a pin-head? Or rather is pin-head the universe? (Or even-better) where is the universe and where is the pin-head?

If you heart jumps in curiosity and excitement about above questions and their potential quantum explanation- this small book (smallest in this series) is for you!
My copy is as good as new! It is impossible to tell otherwise!
