Review
A dark horse, only in that one might not expect a book by Einstein to be a sales possibility for the layman. And that is what this is. It is ideal for the layman,and he needs little or no previous knowledge of the subject if he is willing to give the successive pages of the volume his careful attention. There is no necessity of struggling with mathematical equations, though - because of the subject - there may be a few battles with comprehension. It would be presumption to evaluate the book's accuracy and authority. Sufficient to say that the text advances so logically from step to step that the beauty and simplicity of the reasoning carry one along. It is more than a history of physics. It is an exposition of scientific methods of thinking. From the subject of motion (treated with an analogy to a detective story), it goes on to the study of heat, thence to a consideration of matter, then to the field of magnetism and electricity and the nature of light and color. From there relativity is the obvious next step, the high spot of the book. Next an investigation of matter, and brief touching on other suggested problems, it ends with a short section on the relationship of physics and reality. Taken as a whole, the book offers some of the most difficult ideas in modern science with the background to make it comprehensible. A book for the James and Eddington market - and more.

在《愛因斯坦的人生方程》這本愛因斯坦傳記裏,作者這樣評價愛因斯坦:“他是夠足瞭雄偉壯麗的現代物理學大廈的物理學之父和一代宗師,他是人類宇宙中永遠閃耀著光芒的科學巨星,他是地球不會因其而轉動,但世界卻因其而不同的科學泰鬥,他是推進瞭社會文明發展進程,影響瞭人...
評分娓娓道來,物理現象後麵的深刻哲理和思維方式。 大傢都知道用來描述熱現象的最基本的概念是溫度和熱,但在科學史上,人們花瞭非常長的時間纔把這兩種概念區彆開來,但是一經辨彆清楚,科學就得到瞭飛速的發展。領悟的過程是漸進的,是一個不斷思考的過程,領悟應該也是個量變到...
評分本書預設讀者對物理學史有一定的瞭解,內容剪裁之精,對相對論和量子力學的定律也著墨不多,一切圍繞物理學觀念的進化:從伽利略對運動和慣性的研究始,機械觀建構瞭人們對現象世界的認識,直到它在解釋電磁力和光波遭遇睏難,遂引入瞭場的概念。這一強大工具會逐步取代傳統的...
評分高中的時候,就從老爸那裏要來看過瞭, 文章比較易懂,沒有過多的公式,特彆適閤作入門書, 激起對物理學的熱愛,我記得一個暑假基本天天都看一會兒, 當然最後沒讀物理專業。 當時知識麵不廣,看瞭這本書瞭解瞭許多傳說中的技術,嗬嗬~懷念。 又買瞭一本影印本看看,原書找...

評分然而作者本人都死在瞭革命中,與其思考曆史和思維方式不如思考自然本身。沒有意義的書。
