Einstein's Dream: The Search for a Unified Theory of the Universe
ISBN: 9780306423437 / Angielski / Miękka / 1986 / 287 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. Thirty years ago Albert Einstein died, his dream of a theory that would unify the universe unfulfilled. He spent the last decades of his life searching for such a theory-a theory that would explain everything from elementary particles and their interac tions to the overall structure of the universe. But he failed, not because he didn't try hard enough, but because the attempt was ahead of its time. When Einstein worked on the problem liter ally nothing was known about black holes, white holes, sin gularities, the Big Bang explosion and the early universe, quarks, gauge invariance, and weak...

The Isaac Newton School of Driving: Physics and Your Car
ISBN: 9780801874178 / Angielski / Twarda / 2003 / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. For some people, driving is an art; for others, it's a science. At the Isaac Newton School of Driving, though, every car is a laboratory on wheels and every drive an exciting journey into the world of physics. As explained by renowned science writer and physics professor Barry Parker--whose father was a car mechanic and garage owner--almost every aspect of driving involves physics. A car's performance and handling relies on fundamental concepts such as force, momentum, and energy. Its ignition system depends on the principles of electricity and magnetism. Braking relies on friction--yet... For some people, driving is an art; for others, it's a science. At the Isaac Newton School of Driving, though, every car is a laboratory on wheels ... |

Chaos in the Cosmos: The Stunning Complexity of the Universe
ISBN: 9780306452611 / Angielski / Miękka / 1996 / 307 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. 'he year was 1889. The French physicist-mathematician Henry T Poincare could not believe his eyes. He had worked for months on one of the most famous problems in science-the problem of three bodies moving around one another under mutual gravita- tional attraction-and what he was seeing dismayed and trou- bled him. Since Newton's time it had been assumed that the problem was solvable. All that was needed was a little ingenuity and considerable perseverance, but Poincare saw that this was not the case. Strange, unexplainable things happened when he delved into the problem; it was not solvable...

Creation: The Story of the Origin and Evolution of the Universe
ISBN: 9780306429521 / Angielski / Miękka / 1988 / 297 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. I remember once watching a presentation of the creation of the universe in a planetarium. It was a fascinating experience: lights flashing, particles appearing to rush by as an explosive roar echoed throughout the planetarium. Then suddenly ... black ness. And after a few seconds ... tiny lights--stars blinking into existence. I tried to imagine myself actually going back to this event. Was this really what it was like? It was an interesting facsimile, but far from what the real thing would have been like. The creation of the universe is an event that is impossible to imagine accurately....

Colliding Galaxies: The Universe in Turmoil
ISBN: 9780306435669 / Angielski / Miękka / 1990 / 298 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. I remember sitting spellbound, watching the movie When Worlds Collide. Two planets hurled through space toward Earth while scientists and engineers frantically raced to complete a rocket ship that would take them to safety. In the final moments the spaceship lifted off as the occupants watched the Earth bulge, crack, then literally explode as one of the planets struck it. As I left the theater I wondered if it was really possible for another world to collide with Earth. Later I learned that while many catastrophic collisions no doubt occurred early in the his tory of the solar system, today...
