This book is a classic popularization of science by one of the great popular science writers who was also a brilliant physicist. He did a lot of work in developing the big bang theory. This book combines two earlier books. The first is "Mr. Tompkins in Wonderland" which discusses the weird consequen Leggi tutto
This book is a commentary book on the theory of relativity. It explain it so much fun.

The discussion had meandered into a messy philosophical argument bringing into question our understanding quantum Leggi tutto
Mr Tompkins has a number of dreams in which he encounters advanced physics on a personal level. Thus he is exposed to relativity and quantum mechanics, cycling close to the speed of light and circling a nucleus as an electron. At first glance, this seems like a good way to bring science to the masses Leggi tutto
