Alle Exemplare der Ausgabe mit dieser ISBN anzeigen:“Einstein’s theory of relativity reminds me of the peasant who asks the engineer how his steam engine works. The engineer explains how the steam goes through the engine, driving the piston up and down and turning the wheels, then the peasant says, ‘Yes, I understand all that, but where’s the horse?’ ” Victor Weisskopf
Since its publication in 1916, Relativity has captured the public’s imagination like no other theory in science. But the real joy of physics comes from understanding, and yet you could read any of the popular explanations written by physicists in the past 100 years and the likelihood is you will not understand.
Einstein’s Beetle is different.
Disguised as a fun and intriguing adventure story, this unique book bridges the gap to the physicist in a way that has never before been achieved to provide the lay reader and young student with an exceptional understanding of the physics. It succeeds because the best person to explain something to a peasant is another peasant who understands.
With an expertise acquired over 25 years from a small library of popular science books, Mark Southworth knows the hurdles you must clear to get to grips with the physics because he’s tripped over every one. He knows the stupid and not-so-stupid questions you want to ask because he’s asked them all. Most importantly, he knows the approach that is needed to fully explain this incredible story and share with you the joy of understanding.
The Fiction
Newton’s Laws of Motion and Universal Law of Gravitation
Einstein’s Special and General theories of relativity and E = mc²
Whether you are a student of physics or simply interested in understanding one of the greatest achievements in the history of thought, Einstein’s Beetle will not leave you looking for the horse.
