Seven Brief Lessons on Physics
Die Buchvorstellungen sind auf Englisch.
Seven compact journeys through relativity, quantum theory, particles, gravity and our place in the universe.
Relativity changes our understanding of space and time; quantum theory unsettles familiar ideas about matter. Rovelli brings these shifts together with elementary particles, gravity and the place of human beings in nature. The small format gives each lesson the concentration of an essay.
Warum ich es behalten habe
I picked this up because I missed learning about physics.
Carlo Rovelli, a theoretical physicist, wrote it in Italian in 2014; the English edition followed in 2015. It moves through relativity, quantum theory, particles, gravity and our place in the universe in seven short lessons.
Relativity changes how we understand space and time, and quantum theory unsettles familiar ideas about matter; the small format gives each lesson the concentration of an essay.
They are seven very easy lessons for beginners. Nothing stood out to me as new, but it is a good popular-science book, the kind the French call vulgarisation.
It is for people getting started with physics.
