A Tale of Two Continents: A Physicist's Life in a Turbulent World
ISBN: 9780691600499 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 552 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. "People like myself, who truly feel at home in several countries, are not strictly at home anywhere," writes Abraham Pais, one of the world's leading theoretical physicists, near the beginning of this engrossing chronicle of his life on two continents. The author of an immensely popular biography of Einstein, Subtle Is the Lord, Pais writes engagingly for a general audience. His "tale" describes his period of hiding in Nazi-occupied Holland (he ended the war in a Gestapo prison) and his life in America, particularly at the newly organized Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton,...

J. Robert Oppenheimer: A Life
ISBN: 9780195327120 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 400 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The late Abraham Pais, author of the award winning biography of Albert Einstein, Subtle is the Lord, here offers an illuminating portrait of another of his eminent colleagues, J. Robert Oppenheimer, one of the most charismatic and enigmatic figures of modern physics.
Pais introduces us to a precocious youth who sped through Harvard in three years, made signal contributions to quantum mechanics while in his twenties, and was instrumental in the growth of American physics in the decade before the Second World War, almost single-handedly bringing it to a state of prominence. He... The late Abraham Pais, author of the award winning biography of Albert Einstein, Subtle is the Lord, here offers an illuminating portrait of ...

Paul Dirac: The Man and His Work
ISBN: 9780521583824 / Angielski / Twarda / 1998 / 144 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Paul Adrien Maurice Dirac was one of the founders of quantum theory. He is numbered alongside Newton, Maxwell and Einstein as one of the greatest physicists of all time. Together the lectures in this volume, originally presented on the occasion of the dedication ceremony for a plaque honoring Dirac in Westminster Abbey, give a unique insight into the relationship between Dirac's character and his scientific achievements. The text begins with the dedication address given by Stephen Hawking at the ceremony. Then Abraham Pais describes Dirac as a person and his approach to his work. Maurice...

"Raffiniert Ist Der Herrgott ...": Albert Einstein, Eine Wissenschaftliche Biographie
ISBN: 9783322987419 / Niemiecki / Miękka / 2012 / 602 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. Im September 1946 kam ich nach Princeton. Dort erfuhr ich aber, da Pauli inzwi- schen nach Zurich abgereist war. Bohr kam noch im gleichen Monat nach Prince- ton, um - wie ich - den Zweihundert jahr-Feiern beizuwohnen. Damals versaumte ich meine erste Gelegenheit, einen Blick auf Einstein zu werfen, als er neben Prasi- dent Truman im Akademischen Festzug einherschritt. Wenig spater stellte mich Bohr aber Einstein vor, der dem ehrfurchtsvollen jungen Mann sehr feundlich ent- gegenkam. Bald wendete sich das Gesprach der Quantentheorie zu und ich horte, wie die beiden diskutierten. Die Details...
