The poetry of Relativity embraces love and sexuality from the perspective of happiness and pain, while addressing the subtleties of emotional ambiguity. This book breathes new life into the way sexuality is expressed in our relationships and the way love is often portrayed during our social maturation. It parallels the struggles of overcoming the misgivings of personal heartache while providing restoration for faith and trust.
In this work Einstein intended, as far as possible, to give an exact insight into the theory of relativity to those readers who, from a general and scientific philosophical point of view, are interested in the theory, but who are not ...
Scientists from Isaac Newton to Stephen Hawking add their unique contributions to this story, as we encounter Einstein's astounding vision of gravity as the curvature of space-time and arrive at the breathtakingly beautiful field equations.
Einstein's theory of relativity shattered the world of physics - replacing Newtonian ideas of space and time with bizarre and counterintuitive conclusions: a world of slowing clocks and stretched space, black holes and curved space-time.
Finally, Brown tries to show that the dynamical interpretation of special relativity defended in the book is consistent with therole this theory must play as a limiting case of Einstein's 1915 theory of gravity: the general theory of ...
Explains the principles of relativity, profiling leading minds such as Albert Einstein, Brian Greene, and Stephen Hawking to simplify their theories on time dilation, extra dimensions, and relative motion.
The well-established mathematical technique that accomplishes this is clearly described in this classic book by Nobel Laureate P.A.M. Dirac.
Very applications oriented, the text includes very recent results, such as the supermassive black-hole in our galaxy and first double pulsar system This text provides a comprehensive and timely introduction to general relativity.
This text brings the challenge and excitement of modern relativity and cosmology at rigorous mathematical level within reach of advanced undergraduates and beginning graduates.
Wolfson's account is head and shoulders above most , and is a good place to start out . " —New Scientist R. elativity , physicist Richard Wolfson shows , gave us a new view of space and time , opening the door to questions about their ...
The textbook introduces students to basic geometric concepts, such as metrics, connections and curvature, before examining general relativity in more detail.
