Produktinformationen "Einstein's Enigma or Black Holes in My Bubble Bath"
After a long and tortuous journey through time the black hole has come to be universally accepted. Once it was looked upon with abhorrence and there was widespread skepticism regarding its possible existence. But, now, the black hole has firmly established itself in the realm of physical reality. This is a fascinating and enjoyable popular science book on gravity and black holes. It offers an absorbing account on the history of research on the universe and gravity from Aristotle via Copernicus via Newton to Einstein. The author possesses high literary qualities and is celebrated relativist. The physics of black holes constitutes one of the most fascinating chapters in modern science. At the same time, there is a fanciful quality associated with this strange and beautiful entity. The black hole story is undoubtedly an adventure through physics, philosophy, history, fiction and fantasy. This book is an attempt to blend all these elements together.
