Hidden Unity in Nature's Laws

Cambridge University Press, 2001

One of the paradoxes of the physical sciences is that as our knowledge has progressed, more and more diverse physical phenomena can be explained in terms of fewer underlying laws, or principles.

The Official Damn Small Linux(R) Book: The Tiny Adaptable Linux(R) That Runs on Anything (Negus Live Linux Series)

Prentice Hall, 2007

Damn Small Linux (DSL) started as an exercise by John Andrews to fit an entire desktop computer system into a compressed 50MB image. Within a few years, DSL grew to one of the most popular Linux systems in the world (in the Top Ten, by some accounts) without growing beyond that 50MB target.

In a world where desktop systems are...
