Extrait : Albert Einstein (né le 14 mars 1879 à Ulm, Wurtemberg, et mort le 18 avril 1955 à Princeton, New Jersey) est un physicien qui fut successivement allemand, puis apatride (1896), suisse (1901), et enfin helvético-américain (1940). Il publie sa théorie de la relativité restreinte en 1905, et une théorie de la gravitation dite relativité générale en 1915. Il contribue largement au développement de la mécanique quantique et de la cosmologie, et reçoit le prix Nobel de physique de 1921 pour son explication de l'effet photoélectrique. Son travail est notamment connu pour l'équation E=mc, qui établit une équivalence entre la matière et l'énergie d'un système. Albert Einstein en 1925. Albert Einstein, figure emblématique de la ville d'UlmSon père, Hermann Einstein, est né le 30 août 1847 à Buchaun, et meurt le 10 octobre 1902 à Milan. Il épouse Pauline Koch le 8 août 1876. Trois ans plus tard, le 14 mars 1879, Albert Einstein naît dans leur appartement à Ulm en Allemagne ; c'est leur premier enfant. Son intérêt pour la science est éveillé dans son enfance par une boussole à l'âge de cinq ans, et le livre La Petite Bible de la géométrie, à treize ans. Il fait ses études primaires et secondaires à la Hochschule d'Aargau en Suisse, où il obtient son diplôme le 30 septembre 1896. Il a d'excellents résultats en mathématiques, mais refuse de s'instruire en biologie et en sciences humaines, car il ne perçoit pas l'intérêt d'apprendr...http://booksllc.net/?l=fr ... Read more

Product Description
THE THEORY OF RELATIVITY IN the days before Copernicus the earth was, so it seemed, an immovable foundation on which the whole structure of the heavens was reared. Man, favourably situated at the hub of the univers~, might well expect that to him the scheme of nature would unfold itself in its simplest aspect. But the behaviour of the heavenly bodies was not at all simple; and the planets literally looped the loop in fantastic curves called epicycles. The cosmogonist had to fill the skies with spheres revolving upon spheres to bear the planets in their appointed orbits; and wheels were .added to wheels until the music of the spheres seemed wellnigh drowned in a discord of whirling machinery. Then came one of the great revolutions of scientific thought, which swept aside the Ptolem~ic system of spheres and epicycles, and revealed the simple plan of the solar system which has endured to this day. The revolution consisted in changing the view-point from which the phenom

The softcover book is a reproduction of a 1920s edition.The quality of the print is poor with many smudges that make some paragraphs barely eligible.Had I known this, I would have choosen a more expensive copy to purchase.But, with books this old and long out of print, there is no guarantee of the quality of the reproduction...you pays your money and you takes your chances. ...
