"Il tempo è relativo, il suo unico valore è dato da ciò che noi facciamo mentre sta passando". Albert Einstein. La voce di Gabriella Greison, fisica, scrittrice e attrice teatrale, racconta in maniera semplice la fisica quantistica, facendo un percorso suggestivo tra le menti che l'hanno creata e le loro geniali intuizioni. La fisica quantistica è nata dall'incrocio dei pensieri dei cervelli più grandi della scienza del XX secolo, e Gabriella Greison traccia questo sentiero fatto anche di slanci emotivi e colpi di scena, di litigi e di lunghe riflessioni.

Claude Cohen-Tannoudji, prix Nobel de physique 1997, retrace son itinéraire personnel et scientifique et un demi-siècle d'évolution de la physique quantique. Sur ce sujet nul n'est mieux placé que lui, qui en a extrait les applications les plus caractéristiques et les plus étonnantes à la fois: la domestication –; et en particulier le refroidissement –; des atomes à l'aide de la lumière. La genèse de ces résultats révolutionnaires –; dont les applications commencent seulement à poindre aujourd'hui –; constitue un témoignage unique sur le développement de la physique et des techniques du XXè siècle.

Seven lectures given by Alice Bailey are brought together in this book of seven chapters. The scientific relation of matter and consciousness is discussed as evolution progressively affects the atomic substance of all forms, subjective and objective.

Thinkers everywhere are conscious of two things, first, that the region of mystery has never before been so clearly defined, and secondly, that that region can be entered more easily than has hitherto been the case; it may, therefore, perhaps be induced to render up some of its secrets if investigators of all schools pursue their search with determination.

Nuclear Russia probes the juncture of history of science and technology, political and cultural history, and environmental history. It considers the atom in Russian society as a reflection of Leninist technological utopianism, Cold War imperatives, scientific hubris, public acceptance, and a state desire to conquer nature. Furthermore the audiobook examines the vital – and perhaps unexpected – significance of ethnicity and gender in nuclear history by looking at how Kazakhs and Nenets lost their homelands and their health in Russia in the wake of nuclear testing.

A respected physics professor and author breaks down the great debate over the Big Bang and the continuing quest to understand the fate of the universe. Today, the Big Bang is so entrenched in our understanding of the cosmos that to doubt it would seem crazy. But as Paul Halpern shows in Flashes...

Quantum theory is so shocking that Einstein could not bring himself to accept it. It is so important that it provides the fundamental underpinning of all modern sciences. Without it, we'd have no computers, no science of molecular biology, no understanding of DNA, no genetic engineering. In...
