Krátky popis
Albert Einstein (1879-1955) was born in Ulm in the German Empire
and received his academic teaching diploma from the Swiss Federal
Polytechnic School in 1900. Unable to secure a teaching post, he
eventually found work in the Swiss Patent Office in Bern, where he
began to develop his special theory of relativity. In 1905 (his
“miracle year”), he published four revolutionary papers, which came
to be recognized as stunning breakthroughs in physics. For the next
25 years, while continuing his research, he taught at several
universities in Europe, relocating to the U.S. in 1933, when Adolf
Hitler came to power. During World War II, his insights regarding
mass-energy equivalence led to the development of the atomic bomb,
a practical demonstration of his theories that shook the world.
Einstein was horrified that the bomb was used, and he spent the
rest of his life warning about the dangers of nuclear weapons and
advocating for peace and international cooperation. In Simply
Einstein, Professor Jimena Canales offers the reader a unique
perspective on the man who occupies a singular place in the popular
imagination. Unlike many Einstein biographies, her book does not
glorify the scientist or get lost in esoteric details, but takes
pains to present a straightforward, thoroughly readable
introduction to the man and his work that shows just how and why an
eccentric physicist became a household name. The universe that
Einstein described is the one in which we now live, a world of
paradoxes and uncertainty, as well as infinite possibility. For
anyone interested in better understanding how this came to be–and
in gaining a fuller appreciation of the brilliant, flawed human
being who changed everything–Simply Einstein is essential reading.
