Parker\u003c\/b\u003e (Author)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAcclaimed science writer Barry Parker completes his trilogy on Einstein with this new work showing the incredibly wide-ranging influence of Einstein's many discoveries. In the first volume, Einstein's Brainchild, Parker focused on relativity, the most famous and important of the great genius's ideas. In the second volume, Einstein's Passions, his human side and diverse interests beyond science were Parker's main topic.Now the author turns once again to Einstein as creative scientist, concentrating on his prolific output of far-reaching contributions that complement and broaden his discovery of relativity. Moreover, Parker provides an indelible portrait of the man behind the theories. In clear and eloquent language, the author helps us appreciate the breadth and richness of Einstein's vision: from Einstein's theories supporting time travel, to his research on curved space, the cosmological constant, black holes, worm holes, gravity waves, cosmic lenses, to quantum theory, and beyond. Parker also discusses Einstein's reluctant connection with atomic weapons, his pacifist philosophy, his quest for the elusive unified field theory, and the relationship of his work to the recent \"hot\" area of superstrings.Even readers already familiar with Einstein's work will discover a wealth of new material in this singular contribution to the Einstein corpus. Parker's gift for turning complex physics into lucid prose has produced the most complete and accessible volume to elucidate for everyone the magnificent contributions of this most brilliant of scientists.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eBarry Parker \u003c\/b\u003e(Pocatello, ID) is an award-winning science writer and the author of twenty-seven highly acclaimed popular science books, including\u003ci\u003e The Physics of War: From Arrows to Atoms\u003c\/i\u003e; \u003ci\u003eAlbert Einstein's Vision: Remarkable Discoveries That Shaped Modern Science\u003c\/i\u003e; \u003ci\u003eEinstein: The Passions of a Scientist\u003c\/i\u003e; \u003ci\u003eEinstein's Brainchild: Relativity Made Relatively Easy!\u003c\/i\u003e;\u003ci\u003eQuantum Legacy: The Discovery That Changed Our Universe\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eScience 101: Physics. \u003c\/i\u003eHe is professor emeritus of physics at Idaho State University.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 286\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.95 x 9.06 x 6.34 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e May 01, 2004\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53909991915827,"sku":"9781591021865","price":40.39,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/fZeeY3gAe_9781591021865.webp?v=1787834350","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/en-ca\/products\/albert-einsteins-vision-remarkable-discoveries-that-shaped-modern-science-hardcover","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
