Builders Of The Universe: From The Bible To The Theory Of Relativity (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781258001582)

Builders of the Universe: From the Bible to the Theory of Relativity is a book written by the renowned physicist Albert Einstein. In this book, Einstein explores the history of human understanding of the universe, from ancient religious texts to the modern scientific theories of his own time. Einstein begins by examining the creation stories of various religions and cultures, including the biblical account of Genesis. He then moves on to discuss the scientific discoveries of the ancient Greeks, such as Aristotle and Euclid, and their contributions to our understanding of the universe. The majority of the book is dedicated to Einstein's own field of expertise: physics. He explains the development of classical mechanics and the laws of motion, as well as the revolutionary discoveries of scientists such as Galileo, Newton, and Maxwell. Finally, he delves into his own groundbreaking theories of relativity and the implications they have for our understanding of space, time, and the nature of the universe itself. Throughout the book, Einstein emphasizes the importance of imagination and intuition in scientific discovery, as well as the need for humility in the face of the vast mysteries of the universe. The book is written in a clear and accessible style, making it an excellent resource for anyone interested in the history of science and the evolution of human understanding of the universe.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
