Bøger udgivet af No-Nonsense Books

Bodybuilding doesn't have to be complicated.What if there was a book that contains no fluff and only gives recommendations based on solid scientific evidence? What if there were a book that allowed you to see the whole picture and not just tiny parts of it?Thoughts like this are the reason that No-Nonsense Bodybuilding now exists.What will you learn from this book? Get to know all fundamental concepts - Grasp which principles are truly essential for your success in the gym. Learn to write down effective workout plans - Understand the meaning and impact of the most important workout variables: volume, intensity, frequency, rest periods, lifting tempo, and exercise selection. Master progression systems - Read how you can adjust workout variables to make sure you continue to make progress. Get an understanding you can be proud of - Learn how and why muscle growth happens, which role nutrition plays for hypertrophy, how supplements can be helpful, and when it makes sense to include advanced techniques like supersets or drop sets.No-Nonsense Bodybuilding is a perfect introductory book for normal people.Here's why. It wasn't written by someone who is sponsored by fitness companies and needs to make a living selling supplements, workout equipment, or expensive upsells. Thus all recommendations are unbiased and no information is held back or presented in an artificially complex way to be able to sell additional more expensive products. It wasn't written by a professional bodybuilder but by someone with a normal job. Thus everything is written with the needs of ordinary people in mind. Each chapter, each section, and each page focuses solely on the goal to help you understand. Nothing is introduced without a thorough motivation or to show off how smart the author is. Although the book contains hundreds of scientific references it's nothing like a formal university lecture. Instead, it's like a casual conservation with a more experienced student. This also means that nothing is assumed to be "obvious" or "easy to see". The book ruthlessly focuses on the fundamentals and makes sure you'll understand them in detail.

Learning quantum field theory doesn't have to be hardWhat if there were a book that allowed you to see the whole picture and not just tiny parts of it?Thoughts like this are the reason that No-Nonsense Quantum Field Theory now exists.What will you learn from this book?Get to know all fundamental concepts - Grasp what a quantum field is, why we use propagators to describe its behavior, and how Feynman diagrams help us to make sense of field interactions.Learn to describe quantum field theory mathematically - Understand the meaning and origin of the most important equations: the Klein-Gordon equation, the Dirac equation, the Proca equation, the Maxwell equations, and the canonical commutation/anticommutation relations.Master important quantum field theory interactions - Read fully annotated, step-by-step calculations and understand the general algorithm we use to particle interactions.Get an understanding you can be proud of -Learn about advanced topics like renormalization and regularization, spontaneous symmetry breaking, the renormalization group equations, non-perturbative phenomena, and effective field models.No-Nonsense Quantum Field Theory is one the most student-friendly book on quantum field theory ever written.Here's why.First of all, it's nothing like a formal university lecture. Instead, it's like a casual conservation with a more experienced student. This also means that nothing is assumed to be "obvious" or "easy to see".Each chapter, each section, and each page focuses solely on the goal to help you understand. Nothing is introduced without a thorough motivation and it is always clear where each equation comes from.The book ruthlessly focuses on the fundamentals and makes sure you'll understand them in detail.The primary focus on the readers' needs is also visible in dozens of small features that you won't find in any other textbookIn total, the book contains more than 100 illustrations that help you understand the most important concepts visually. In each chapter, you'll find fully annotated equations and calculations are done carefully step-by-step. This makes it much easier to understand what's going on. Whenever a concept is used that was already introduced previously there is a short sidenote that reminds you where it was first introduced and often recites the main points. In addition, there are summaries at the beginning of each chapter that make sure you won't get lost.
