BOOK EXCERPT:
Albert Einstein, father of modern physics, had a unique fixation. He wanted to extend laws of relativity to everything in the universe. He didn't make it and no one was successful yet. In order to repair at this lack, a clone was born artificially. But the creature isn't the same of the original Albert and it has another fixation. Luca Novelli, writer and designer with genetics hobby, cloned Albert Einstein and has to maintain him. Now he lives and works in Milan.

BOOK EXCERPT:
Professor Mendel Sachs's contributions have been wide-ranging and the lectures presented at the symposium honoring him on his retirement encompassed a broad spectrum — hence the title Fragments of Science. The topics covered include solar physics, quantum mechanics, crystallography, elementary particles, logic and philosophy, and the history of physics. Included also is a new poem by noted poet Robert Creeley, composed especially for the symposium.Harvey Breverman, an eminent artist and professor of art, attended the symposium and sketched the lecturers and recorded some of the material they presented (as seen from the eyes of an artist!). These remarkable drawings are reproduced in duotone throughout the volume. Post-banquet reminiscences of turbulent times at the university in the late 1960s by noted author and computer guru Cliff Stoll enliven the volume. T Y Wu and Sachs exchange greetings and comments regarding their discussions of the twin paradox in the 1970s. Sachs closes the volume with an illuminating autobiographical chapter.This is a highly stimulating volume and a feast for the eyes.

BOOK EXCERPT:
This book offers an up-to-date insight into the early philosophical debate on Einsteinian relativity. The essays explore the reception and interpretation of Einstein’s ideas by some of the most important philosophical schools of the time, such as logical positivism (Reichenbach), neo-Kantianism (Cassirer, Natorp), critical realism (Sellars), and radical empiricism (Mach). The book is aimed at physicists and historians of science researching the epistemological implications of the theory of relativity, as well as to scholars in philosophy interested in understanding how leading philosophical figures of the early twentieth century reacted to the relativistic revolution.

BOOK EXCERPT:
Albert Einstein is an icon of the twentieth century. Born in Ulm, Germany, in 1879, he is most famous for his theory of relativity. He also made enormous contributions to quantum mechanics and cosmology, and for his work he was awarded the Nobel Prize in 1921. A self-pronounced pacifist, humanist, and, late in his life, democratic socialist, Einstein was also deeply concerned with the social impact of his discoveries. Much of Einstein's life is shrouded in legend. From popular images and advertisements to various works of theater and fiction, he has come to signify so many things. In Einstein: A Biography, Jürgen Neffe presents a clear and probing portrait of the man behind the myth. Unearthing new documents, including a series of previously unknown letters from Einstein to his sons, which shed new light on his role as a father, Neffe paints a rich portrait of the tumultuous years in which Einstein lived and worked. And with a background in the sciences, he describes and contextualizes Einstein's enormous contributions to our scientific legacy. Einstein, a breakout bestseller in Germany, is sure to be a classic biography of the man and proverbial genius who has been called "the brain of the [twentieth] century."

BOOK EXCERPT:
During an interview conducted late in his life, the legendary Swedish Film director Ingmar Bergman was asked about the coming of age. He likened aging to hiking up the side of a mountain: “the longer one walks the more winded one becomes,” he noted. “But,” he added, “the view!” Conrad Pritscher provides us with a breathtaking view of education as it is and can be, one focal point of which is Albert Einstein’s wise views on the subject.
