Review
A dark horse, only in that one might not expect a book by Einstein to be a sales possibility for the layman. And that is what this is. It is ideal for the layman,and he needs little or no previous knowledge of the subject if he is willing to give the successive pages of the volume his careful attention. There is no necessity of struggling with mathematical equations, though - because of the subject - there may be a few battles with comprehension. It would be presumption to evaluate the book's accuracy and authority. Sufficient to say that the text advances so logically from step to step that the beauty and simplicity of the reasoning carry one along. It is more than a history of physics. It is an exposition of scientific methods of thinking. From the subject of motion (treated with an analogy to a detective story), it goes on to the study of heat, thence to a consideration of matter, then to the field of magnetism and electricity and the nature of light and color. From there relativity is the obvious next step, the high spot of the book. Next an investigation of matter, and brief touching on other suggested problems, it ends with a short section on the relationship of physics and reality. Taken as a whole, the book offers some of the most difficult ideas in modern science with the background to make it comprehensible. A book for the James and Eddington market - and more.

Product Description
Clear and concise explanations of the development of theories explaining physical phenomena.
我很少看爱因斯坦写的科普书,主要是因为听说他写的不够科普,太专业。这本看起来,并没有如此,可能是因为合著者也是高手吧。不过他一点儿公式、方程都没有,还是有点不爽。
評分在这本物理学名著中,爱因斯坦指出:物理学的观念,“从古希腊哲学到现代物理学的整个科学史中不断有人力图把表面上极为复杂的自然现象归结为几个简单的基本观念和关系。这就是整个自然哲学的基本原理…….这个观念,在古代哲学中,不过是巧妙的想象而已。联系到后来出现的许多...

評分娓娓道来,物理现象后面的深刻哲理和思维方式。 大家都知道用来描述热现象的最基本的概念是温度和热,但在科学史上,人们花了非常长的时间才把这两种概念区别开来,但是一经辨别清楚,科学就得到了飞速的发展。领悟的过程是渐进的,是一个不断思考的过程,领悟应该也是个量变到...
評分阿尔伯特·爱因斯坦(Albert Einstein,1879年3月14日-1955年4月18日),出生在德国乌尔姆市一个贫困的犹太家庭,是现代物理学的开创者、奠基人,被誉为是“现代物理学之父”,继牛顿以来最伟大的科学家、物理学家。他创立的相对论是现代物理学的两大支柱之一(另一个是量子力...
