Download Young Einstein: And the Story of E=mc2 AudioBook Free

Everyone recognises the famous physicist with the wild, white head of hair. But what sort of person was the young Albert Einstein, before he became universally acclaimed as the archetypal genius? And exactly how did his genius unfold? On this outstanding new Kindle Solitary, scientist Robyn Arianrhod mixes biography with popular research to tell the story of how young Albert developed a theory that - anonymous to him initially - covered the seed products of his incredible equation E = mc2. Arianrhod, who wrote her PhD on Einstein's standard theory of relativity, makes the ideas behind the equation accessible to the lay down reader and sets young Einstein's exploration of the ideas against the background of his first loves, his family and matrimony and, most importantly, his childlike wonder at the nature of the universe. She introduces his heroes and technological inspirations and the friends who thought in him when no-one else did. In personalising Einstein she brings alive both man and his research in a brief, easy-to-read narrative. In displaying how he learned his famous equation and what it means, she draws a compelling portrait of this prodigious intellect whose unfathomable grasp of the building blocks of physics would change our world permanently. Dr Robyn Arianrhod is the writer of two critically acclaimed works of popular research and scientific record: Einstein's Heroes: Imagining the globe Through the Terms of Mathematics and Seduced by Logic: Émilie du Châtelet, Mary Somerville and the Newtonian Revolution. Both were shortlisted for major e book honors and are shared in the USA. Einstein's Heroes was translated into several languages. Robyn was awarded her PhD for research on Einstein's standard theory of relativity and has lectured in applied mathematics (including special relativity) for many years. She is presently an adjunct research fellow in the institution of Mathematical Sciences at Monash College or university in Melbourne, where she actually is executing research on the structure of relativistic space-times. She is also a technological reviewer for the American Mathematical Society.
