AI Thread Summary
There is a demand for science books that effectively combine visual elements like pictures, drawings, and diagrams with serious content in fields such as physics, math, and programming. The preference is for materials that are engaging and visually appealing, rather than traditional, text-heavy formats. Examples of well-received books include "Manga Guide to Linear Algebra" and "Head First C," which successfully integrate illustrations to aid understanding. While introductory texts typically include visual aids, the quality and color of illustrations may vary by edition, particularly between developing countries and the US.

I dont think missiles totally make fighter craft obsolate, for example the former cant escort shuttles if one wants to capture a celestial body. I dont insist fighters have to be manned (i enjoyed Enders game about someone control the events for afar) but i also think it isnt totally unjustifiable.
So far I've been enjoying the show but I am curious to hear from those a little more knowledgeable of the Dune universe as my knowledge is only of the first Dune book, The 1984 movie, The Sy-fy channel Dune and Children of Dune mini series and the most recent two movies. How much material is it pulling from the Dune books (both the original Frank Herbert and the Brian Herbert books)? If so, what books could fill in some knowledge gaps?
I thought I had discovered a giant plot hole in Avatar universe, but apparently it's based on a faulty notion. So, the anti-gravity effect that lifts whole mountains into the sky is unrelated to the unobtanium deposits? Apparently the value of unobtanium is in its property as a room temperature superconductor, which enables their superluminal drive technology. Unobtanium is found in large deposits underground, which is why they want to mine the ground. OK. So, these mountains - which...
