{"product_id":"gravity-george-gamow-9781607961482","title":"Gravity","description":"A distinguished physicist and teacher, George Gamow also possessed a special gift for explaining the intricacies of science. Here he takes an enlightening look at three scientists whose work unlocked many of the mysteries behind the laws of physics: Galileo, the first to examine closely the process of free and restricted fall; Newton, originator of a universal force; and Einstein, who proposed that gravity is no more than the curvature of the four-dimensional space-time continuum. Most of the book is focused on Newton's ideas, with a concluding chapter on post-Einsteinian speculations concerning the relationship between gravity and other physical phenomena. This remarkably reader-friendly volume is graced with the author's own drawings, both technical and fanciful.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e George Gamow\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1607961482\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781607961482\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e www.bnpublishing.com\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/23\/2009\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 156\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.52lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.36d","brand":"George Gamow","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43984570974463,"sku":"9781607961482","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_a4e163df-caf7-40b0-81c5-38cb4d138a69.jpg?v=1683273026","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/gravity-george-gamow-9781607961482","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
