David C. Cassidy Boeken

This gripping book brings back to life the events surrounding the internment of ten German Nuclear Scientists immediately after World War II.

Discusses Heisenberg's personal life, examines his work in such areas as quantum physics, elementary particles, nuclear physics, and the Uncertainty principle, and explores his political life under the Nazi regime during World War II

This book, a companion to the textbook, Understanding Physics, is your guide to observations and explorations in the world of physics. Prepare for ch- lenging work, fun, and some surprises. One of the best ways to learn physics is by doing physics, in the laboratory and everywhere. One cannot rely on reading and class work alone. The explorations in this book are your - portunity to gain some actual, hands-on experience with physics. Many of these explorations will assist you to design your own experiments and to discover many of the important ideas of science yourself. As you will see from the Contents, this Student Guide provides a variety of potentially helpful materials. Following the Introduction is a review of units, mathematics, and scientific notation, and a list of suggested further reading and Web Sites. However, a large portion of the Student Guide c- tains further materials relating to many of the textbook chapters, as well as to laboratory explorations. In the section containing Further Chapter - terials you will find elaborations on topics in many of the chapters, as well as derivations of important equations. A complete list of the suggested mi- and major-laboratory explorations is also given in the Contents. Each - ploration is keyed to specific portions of the textbook, and lists are also provided of the explorations pertaining to each part of the text."

Now in paperback: Heisenberg's life reconsidered for the twenty-first century by the world's leading English-language authority.

Exploring themes of personal disgrace and societal change, the narrative intertwines a personal story with the broader context of the scientific revolution in America. Through vivid detail, it examines how individual experiences reflect the cultural shifts and challenges faced during this transformative period in history.

The book explores the profound influence of Einstein's theories and perspectives on modern culture and the scientific community. It delves into how his groundbreaking ideas reshaped not only scientific understanding but also societal views, highlighting the interplay between scientific innovation and cultural evolution. Through this examination, readers gain insight into the lasting legacy of Einstein's contributions and their relevance in today's world.

In the seventies, when he was just 20 years old, David Cassidy achieved the sort of teen idol fame that is rarely seen. He was mobbed everywhere he went. His clothes were regularly ripped off by adoring fans. He sold records the world over. He was bigger than Elvis. And all thanks to a hit TV show called The Partridge Family. Now, in his own words, this is a brutally frank account of those mindblowing days of stardom in which being David Cassidy played second fiddle to being Keith Partridge. Including stories of sex, drugs and rock'n'roll that explode the myth of Cassidy as squeaky clean, it's also the story of how to keep on living life and loving yourself when the fickle fans fall away.

Was Einstein's first wife his uncredited coauthor, unpaid assistant, or his unacknowledged helpmeet? The real Mileva Story.
