Description: Einstein's Cosmos by Michio Kaku Estimated delivery 4-14 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description An insightful new book putting Einsteins work in a contemporary context Publisher Description Few figures loom as large as Albert Einstein in our contemporary culture. It is truly remarkable that a man from such humble beginnings, an unemployed dreamer without a future or a job, who was written off by his professors as a hopeless loser, could dare to scale the heights he reached.In this enlightening book Michio Kaku reassesses Einsteins work by centring on his three great theories - special relativity, general relativity and the Unified Field Theory. The first yielded the equation E=mc2 which is now such a fixture in our culture that it is practically a ubiquitous slogan. But the subsequent theories led to the Big Bang theory and have changed irrevocably the way we perceive time and space. Michio Kaku gives a new, refreshing look at the pioneering work of Einstein, giving a more accurate portrayal of his enduring legacy than previous biographies. As todays advanced physicists continue their intense search to fulfil Einsteins most cherished dream, a theory of everything, he is recognised as a prophet who set the agenda for modern physics.
