  • 費曼的6堂Easy相對論

    Six Not-So-Easy Pieces

    Series series 科學文化
    《費曼的6堂Easy相對論》也是從《費曼物理學講義》精選出來的。它有一個跟《費曼的6堂Easy物理課》不太一樣的地方，就是《費曼的6堂Easy物理課》跨越了物理學的好幾個領域，從力學到熱力學再到原子物理。你手裡捧著的這6篇講義，則是全部圍繞著同一個焦點主題。此主題曾經引起近代物理學史上許多最革命性的發現，以及一些完全出人意表的理論。諸如從黑洞到蛀孔、從原子能到時間彎曲。我們所說的主題當然不是別個，正是相對論。不過依我們的淺見，即使偉大的相對論之父，愛因斯坦先生本人，也似乎比不上這位來自大蘋果（紐約市）的費曼先生，能夠把愛因斯坦這套理論的內外精華、有什麼妙用、以及所涉及的基本觀念，解釋得如此完美，直教人不得不擊節讚嘆。——Perseus Books 出版緣起作者簡介理查．費曼（Richard... ...
