As Carl Sagan did for astronomy and Brian Green did for cosmology, Walter Lewin takes listeners on a marvelous journey in For the Love of Physics, opening our eyes as never before to the amazing beauty and power with which physics can reveal the hidden workings of the world all around us. "I introduce people to their own world," writes Lewin, "the world they live in and are familiar with but don't approach like a physicist - yet."

L'essentiel à connaître sur la physique quantique ! Beaucoup d'entre nous ignorent à quoi la physique quantique renvoie précisément : d'où vient le terme " quantique " ? Quand cette science a-t‑elle vu le jour ? Pourquoi doit-on la distinguer de la physique classique ? En 50 notions, Blandine Pluchet vous emmène à travers un fascinant voyage au coeur de l'infiniment petit. Grâce aux découvertes de physiciens du xxe siècle tels que Planck, Einstein ou encore Bohr, quanta, photons, électrons et autres composants de la matière n'auront bientôt plus de secrets pour vous !

"Relativity: The Special and the General Theory" is a seminal work by Albert Einstein, first published in 1916, designed to explain the groundbreaking theories that reshaped our understanding of the universe. In this accessible text, Einstein introduces listeners to the Special Theory of Relativity, which addresses the relationship between space and time, and the General Theory of Relativity, which expands these concepts to include gravity as the curvature of space-time caused by mass and energy.

Science fiction has imagined some pretty wild ideas about how the universe could work - from hidden extra dimensions in Interstellar to life as a mental projection in The Matrix. But these imaginings seem downright tame compared to the mind-bending science now coming out of physics and astronomy, and in this audiobook, we look at the strange and fascinating discoveries shaping (and reshaping) the field today. 

Have you ever wondered why onions make us cry? Do you believe bananas contain more calories as they ripen and get sweeter? This sequel to the best-selling What Einstein Told His Cook continues Robert L. Wolke's investigations into the science behind our foods.

Desde Einstein, o mundo não via um cientista tão reverenciado quanto Stephen Hawking. Com seu trabalho revolucionário em física e cosmologia, ele encantou milhões de leitores com a origem do universo e a natureza dos buracos negros, além de inspirar todos pela coragem e determinação que mostrou em sua luta contra a doença do neurônio motor. Agora, nesta reunião póstuma de seus trabalhos, podemos conhecer seus pensamentos a respeito das grandes questões que povoam nossas mentes desde os primórdios e daquelas mais prementes na atualidade.

Gene Kranz was present at the creation of America's manned space program and was a key player in it for three decades. As a flight director in NASA's Mission Control, Kranz witnessed firsthand the making of history. He participated in the space program from the early days of the Mercury program to the last Apollo mission, and beyond. He endured the disastrous first years when rockets blew up and the United States seemed to fall further behind the Soviet Union in the space race.

Are you captivated by the mysteries of the universe and the minds that unravel them? Eager to understand how a single equation transformed our understanding of everything from atoms to galaxies?

Quantum theory is the most revolutionary discovery in physics since Newton. This book gives a lucid, exciting, and accessible account of the surprising and counterintuitive ideas that shape our understanding of the sub-atomic world. It does not disguise the problems of interpretation that still remain unsettled 75 years after the initial discoveries. Uncertainty, probabilistic physics, complementarity, the problematic character of measurement, and decoherence are among the many topics discussed.
