Download or read book Albert Einstein written by Jürgen Renn and published by Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH. This book was released on 2005 with total page 480 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1905, Albert Einstein published five scientific articles that fundamentally changed the world–view of physics: The Special Theory of Reativity revolutionized our concept of space and time, E=mc2 became the best–known equation in physics. On the occasion of the 100th aniversary of his "annus mirabilis" 1905, the UNESCO declared the year 2005 the "World Year of Physics", in order to draw attention to the impact of physics. The Max Planck Institute for the history of science dedicates an exhibition in the Kronprinzenpalais in Berlin to the probably most important scientist of the 20th century. In this book, 100 authors explain the historical background of Einstein′s life and work, shed light on many different aspects of his biography, and on the scientific fields and topics that are connected to Einstein′s work. The authors are some of the most renowned Einstein researchers in the world, such as Jürgen Ehlers, Peter Galison, Zeev Rosenkranz, John Stachel and Robert Schulmann. The essays form a bridge between scientific and cultural history, opening up a perspective on Einstein′s biography which goes beyond the traditional picture of the exceptional science genius.

The Max Planck Institute for the History of Science dedicates an exhibition to the easily most important scientist of the 20th century. The exhibition is accompanied by a two-volume catalogue . The elaborate, four-colour first volume (Albert Einstein - Chief Engineer of the Universe: Einstein's Life and Work in Context) mirrors the structure of the exhibition, containing detailed, easy-to-understand information on the three large exhibition areas - World-view and discovery - Einstein - his life - Einstein's world today. On the basis of Einstein's innovative theoretical work, the text explains changing historical world-views as well as the conditions under which science develops, shedding light on the bumpy path of Einstein's life and the political and social revolutions which formed its background. This bridge between scientific and cultural history opens up a perspective on Einstein's biography which goes far beyond the traditional picture of this exceptional science genius. The book concludes with a depiction of the effects of Einstein's work on today's science and culture. A DVD with animations and film sequences from the exhibition is enclosed. The second volume is a bilingual collection of source material (Documents of a Life's Pathway/Dokumente eines Lebensweges). Letters and manuscripts by Einstein as well as photographs of people and objects are reproduced in high quality and invite the reader to study the exhibition's sources more intensively.

Book excerpt: Im Jahr 1905 veröffentlichte Albert Einstein fünf wissenschaftliche Arbeiten, die das Weltbild der Physik grundlegend verändern sollten: Die spezielle Relativitätstheorie revolutionierte unsere Vorstellung von Raum und Zeit, E=mc² wurde zur bekanntesten Gleichung der Physik. Anlässlich des 100. Jubiläums des Einsteinschen "Wunderjahres 1905" erklärte die UNESCO das Jahr 2005 zum "World Year of Physics", um mit weltweiten Aktionen auf die Bedeutung der Physik aufmerksam zu machen. Das Max-Planck-Institut für Wissenschaftsgeschichte widmet dem wohl bedeutendsten Wissenschaftler des 20. Jahrhunderts eine Ausstellung im Berliner Kronprinzenpalais. Begleitet wird die Ausstellung von einem zweibändigen Katalog. Der aufwändig und durchgehend vierfarbig gestaltete erste Band (Albert Einstein - Ingenieur des Universums: Einsteins Leben und Werk im Kontext) folgt in seiner Gliederung der Ausstellung und informiert ausführlich und in verständlicher Form über die drei großen Ausstellungsbereiche - Weltbild und Erkenntnis - Einstein - der Lebensweg - Einsteins Welt heute. Ausgehend von dem bahnbrechenden theoretischen Werk Einsteins werden sowohl der Wandel historischer Weltbilder als auch die Bedingungen von Wissenschaftsentwicklung erklärt. Gleichzeitig wird der verschlungene Lebensweg Albert Einsteins vor dem Hintergrund der politischen und gesellschaftlichen Umwälzungen seiner Zeit beleuchtet. Dieser Brückenschlag zwischen Wissenschaft und Kulturgeschichte soll dem Leser eine Perspektive auf die Biographie Einsteins eröffnen, die über das traditionelle Bild des genialen Ausnahmewissenschaftlers hinausgeht. Am Schluss stehen die Auswirkungen von Einsteins Schaffen auf die Wissenschaft und Kultur der Gegenwart. Beigefügt ist eine DVD mit Animationen und Filmsequenzen aus der Ausstellung. Ergänzt wird der Katalog durch einen zweiten Band, welcher eine bilinguale Quellensammlung darstellt (Dokumente eines Lebensweges/Documents of a Life's Pathway). Sowohl Briefe und Manuskripte Einsteins als auch Fotografien von Personen und Objekten sind in hoher Qualität reproduziert und laden zu einer eingehenden Beschäftigung mit den Quellen der Ausstellung ein.
