Produktinformationen zu „Don't Be Afraid of Physics (PDF)“

With the aid of entertaining short stories, anecdotes, lucid explanations and straight-forward figures, this book challenges the perception that the world of physics is inaccessible to the non-expert. Beginning with Neanderthal man, it traces the evolution of human reason and understanding from paradoxes and optical illusions to gravitational waves, black holes and dark energy. On the way, it provides insights into the mind-boggling advances at the frontiers of physics and cosmology. Unsolved problems and contradictions are highlighted, and contentious issues in modern physics are discussed in a non-dogmatic way in a language comprehensible to the non-scientist. It has something for everyone.

Autoren-Porträt von Ross Barrett, Pier Paolo Delsanto

Ross Barrett: Formerly a Research Fellow and Lecturer at four universities in Australia and Germany, and Senior Principal Research Scientist (now retired) at the Defence Science and Technology Organisation in Adelaide, his research interests range over experimental nuclear physics, theoretical nuclear physics, atomic physics, signal processing, and underwater acoustics. He has published over sixty research papers, and one book.

Pier Paolo Delsanto: Full Professor (now retired) and Director of Research in Condensed Matter Physics at the Politecnico of Torino, Italy, has spent half of his professional life in Universities and Research Centres abroad. His research fields range from Nuclear Physics, Acoustics and Ultrasonics to modelling and simulations in Materials Science, Biology and Oncology, with more than two hundred scientific articles and six books (two published by Springer).
