Gå med i LibraryThing för att få reda på om du skulle tycka om den här boken. Det finns inga diskussioner på LibraryThing om den här boken. Perhaps it is my interest and background on the periphery of physics, but I personally think Rothman's use of analogy, while intended to make the subject easier, actually disguises some of the glory of this fascinating subject. That said, he does a masterful job in dealing with an entire library of subject matter in a mere 242 pages (including an excellent, thorough Index). ( ) inga recensioner | lägg till en recension
For all of you who break out in a sweat at the thought of thermodynamics, or freeze up at the mention of quantum mechanics, like a bolt from the blue, INSTANT PHYSICS will zap you through the fascinating history of our most basic, yet baffling, science. From the thousand-year search for proof of the existence of the ever-elusive atom to the varied and heated arguments behind the big bang theory, INSTANT PHYSICS answers all the heavy questions with a light touch. You'll learn: * How the Greek philosophers used the sledgehammer of mathematics to break apart the mysteries of the physical universe. * Why gravity is a "romantic" force. * How to tell the difference between a gluon, a meson, and a quark, even if you can't see them. INSTANT PHYSICS is crammed with special features, including chapter summaries, who's who lists, biographical and historical tidbits, and a host of illustrations, photos, equations, diagrams, and drawings.
