Carlo Rovelli,
an Italian theoretical physicist, is the head of the quantum gravity group at the Centre de Physique Théorique of Aix-Marseille Université. He is one of the founders of the loop quantum gravity theory and the author of the international bestseller Seven Brief Lessons on Physics. Rovelli lives in Marseille, France.
What are time and space made of?
Where does matter come from?
And what exactly is reality?
Theoretical physicist Carlo Rovelli has spent his whole life exploring these questions and pushing the boundaries of what we know. Here he explains how our image of the world has changed over the last few dozen centuries.
In elegant and accessible prose, Rovelli takes us on a wondrous journey from Aristotle to Albert Einstein, from Michael Faraday to the Higgs boson, and from classical physics to his own work in quantum gravity. As he shows us how the idea of reality has evolved over time, Rovelli offers readers a deeper understanding of the theories he introduced so concisely in Seven Brief Lessons on Physics. His evocative explanations invite us to imagine, beyond our ever-changing idea of reality, a whole new world that has yet to be discovered.
之前其实也看过一些其他的物理科普,表示脚步永远都停在理解狭义相对论上。但是这本书用大概2页就让我理解了时空的相对性!写作手法令人惊奇!让我这个高中物理考不过30分从而放弃理科的人重燃了对生活的希望!字数补丁字数补丁字数补丁字数补丁字数补丁字数补丁字数补丁字数补...
评分 评分 评分书的前半部分由Democritus讲至Einstein,可能我先前读过好几本物理科普都不超过这个范围,所以读起来挺轻松易懂。——”懂”仅指字面含义上读懂了作者所说的话,但不包括背后原理及推演过程乃至应用层面的含义。书的后半部分着重于loop quantum gravity,就真的有点难了,需要多了解一点费曼图和黎曼函数的基本知识。 作者的文风还是很棒的,科普书里面不乱给比喻真是难能可贵。虽然作者引用了Einstein说的,想象一下软体动物般的柔性参考体系,觉得这画面感尤其尴尬,我想到的都是做成了食物的鱿鱼花。一个“好的”公式应当(简洁优美到)能在一件T-shirt上写完,下次可以不穿E=mC^2 这么常见的啦。
评分说好的科普呢?只有我看完觉得一知半解吗?那么多人说好,又不敢不看到最后。终于熬完了,手动再见。
评分原作为意大利语写就,英文翻译版本,没翻完
评分扯白也旁征博引的样子~
