It is for people who always wanted to understand Einstein's ideas but never thought they could.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTold  with humor, enthusiasm, and rare clarity, this entertaining book reveals how a former high school drop-out revolutionized our understanding of space and time. From E=mc\u003csup\u003e2\u003c\/sup\u003e and everyday time travel to black holes and the big bang, \u003ci\u003eEinstein Relatively Simple\u003c\/i\u003e takes us all, regardless of our scientific backgrounds, on a mind-boggling journey through the depths of Einstein's universe. Along the way, we track Einstein through the perils and triumphs of his life — follow his thinking, his logic, and his insights — and chronicle the audacity, imagination, and sheer genius of the man recognized as the greatest scientist of the modern era.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn Part I on special relativity we learn how time slows and space shrinks with motion, and how mass and energy are equivalent. Part II on general relativity reveals a cosmos where black holes trap light and stop time, where wormholes form gravitational time machines, where space itself is continually expanding, and where some 13.7 billion years ago our universe was born in the ultimate cosmic event — the Big Bang.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eContents:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eEinstein Discovered: Special Relativity, E = mc\u003csup\u003e2\u003c\/sup\u003e,and Spacetime:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFrom Unknown to Revolutionary\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Great Conflict\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Two Postulates\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA New Reality\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Shrinking of Time\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSimultaneity and the Squeezing of Space\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe World's Most Famous Equation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpacetime\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eEinstein Revealed: General Relativity, Gravity, and the Cosmos:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEinstein's Dream\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e“The Happiest Thought of My Life”\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Warping of Space and Time\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStitching Spacetime\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhat is Spacetime Curvature?\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEinstein's Masterpiece\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Universe Revealed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIn the Beginning\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReadership:\u003c\/b\u003e Adults and young people all over the world who are curious about Einstein and how the universe works.\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"World Scientific Publishing Company, Incorporated","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47185346887920,"sku":"9789814525619","price":22.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9789814525619_p0.jpg?v=1763691095","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9789814525619","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
