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.

Product Description
Clear and concise explanations of the development of theories explaining physical phenomena.
爱因斯坦和英费尔德合著的这本书,在我的书架上已经半个多世纪。因为学理论物理,爱因斯坦的书自然是看到就买,在那时期我还买了爱因斯坦的《狭义与广义相对论浅说》,也是属于面向一般读者的,俗称“科普读物”。后者比前者讲得稍微深入一点,给出了一些简单的公式。 《物理学...
评分科学家读自然之书必须由他自己来寻找答案,他不能像某些无耐性的读者在读侦探小说时所常做的那样,翻到书末先去看最后的结局。在这里,他既是读者,又是侦探,他得找寻和解释(哪怕是部分地)各个事件之间的联系。即使是为了得到这个问题部分的解决,科学家也必须搜集漫无秩序...

评分娓娓道来,物理现象后面的深刻哲理和思维方式。 大家都知道用来描述热现象的最基本的概念是温度和热,但在科学史上,人们花了非常长的时间才把这两种概念区别开来,但是一经辨别清楚,科学就得到了飞速的发展。领悟的过程是渐进的,是一个不断思考的过程,领悟应该也是个量变到...
评分高中的时候,就从老爸那里要来看过了, 文章比较易懂,没有过多的公式,特别适合作入门书, 激起对物理学的热爱,我记得一个暑假基本天天都看一会儿, 当然最后没读物理专业。 当时知识面不广,看了这本书了解了许多传说中的技术,呵呵~怀念。 又买了一本影印本看看,原书找...
然而作者本人都死在了革命中,与其思考历史和思维方式不如思考自然本身。没有意义的书。

评分Perennial insights on physics from the greatest physicist.
评分爱因斯坦讲物理学发展,用了最直白的语言,没有公式,反而激发阅读《相对论》的兴趣。从机械力学时代,到惯性坐标系和非惯性坐标系,最后谈及概率波。真是一顿愉悦的物理学之旅。
评分然而作者本人都死在了革命中,与其思考历史和思维方式不如思考自然本身。没有意义的书。
