Quantum Theory Cannot Hurt You , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 360min
Did you know that there’s so much empty space inside matter that the entire human race could be squeezed into the volume of a sugar cube? Or that you grow old more quickly on the top floor of a building than on the ground floor? The two towering achievements of modern physics are quantum theory and Einstein’s general theory of relativity. But, almost a century after their advent, most people haven’t the slightest clue what either is about. Get set for the most entertaining science book of the year. ungekürzt. Language: English.

History for Kids: The Illustrated Life of Albert Einstein , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 21min
“Nature shows us only the tail of the lion. But there is no doubt in my mind that the lion belongs with it even if he cannot reveal himself to the eye all at once because of his huge dimension.” - Albert EinsteinIn Charles River Editors’ History for Kids series, your children can learn about history’s most important people and events in an easy, entertaining, and educational way. The concise but comprehensive book will keep your kid’s attention all the way to the end.Albert Einstein (1879-1955) needs no formal introduction. He is known around the world as one of history’s most brilliant geniuses, and one of its most influential scientists. Einstein is often regarded as the father of modern physics, and he received the 1921 Nobel Prize in Physics "...for his services to theoretical physics, and especially for his discovery of the law of the photoelectric effect." And though he is best known for his contributions to science with over 300 scientific papers, the witty Einstein also wrote over 150 non-scientific works, many of them infused with his humor. The entire package of his life and career has ensured that people continue to describe intelligent people as “Einsteins”.Einstein’s greatest and most famous theory is the theory of relativity, which fundamentally changed the understanding of physics and astronomy during the 20th century. When first published, relativity superseded a 200-year-old theory of mechanics put forth by Isaac Newton. The theory of relativity overturned the concept of motion from Newton's day, into "all motion is relative." Time was no longer uniform and absolute. Therefore, physics is no longer understood as space by itself, and time by itself. Instead, an added dimension had to be taken into account in the form of curved space-time. Time now depended on velocity, and contraction became a fundamental consequence at appropriate speeds.With Einstein’s theory of relativity, cosmologists and astrophysicists have b ungekürzt.

Letters to Solovine: 1906–1955 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 102min
A provocative collection of letters to his longtime friend and translator that spans Einstein’s career and reveals the inner thoughts and daily life of a transformative genius. From their early days as tutor and scholar, discussing philosophy over Spartan dinners, to their work together to publish Einstein’s books in Europe, in Maurice Solovine Einstein found both an engaged mind and a loyal friend. While Einstein frequently shared his observations on science, politics, philosophy, and religion in his correspondence with Solovine, he was just as likely to express his feelings about everyday life - his health and the effects of aging and his experiences in the various places where he settled and visited in his long career. The letters are both funny and frank, and taken together, reflect the changes - large and small - that took place over a half century and in the remarkable life of the world’s foremost scientist. The collected Letters to Solovine offers scholar and interested reader alike unprecedented access to the personal life of Albert Einstein. This authorized Philosophical Library audiobook features a new introduction by Neil Berger. “Men are even more susceptible to suggestion than horses, and each period is dominated by a mood, with the result that most men fail to see the tyrant who rules over them.” (Albert Einstein, Princeton, April 10, 1938) Albert Einstein (1879-1955) was born in Germany and became an American citizen in 1934. A world-famous theoretical physicist, he was awarded the 1921 Nobel Prize for Physics and is renowned for his Theory of Relativity. In addition to his scientific work, Einstein was an influential humanist who spoke widely about politics, ethics, and social causes. After leaving Europe, Einstein taught at Princeton University. His theories were instrumental in shaping the atomic age. Neil Berger, an associate professor emeritus of mathematics, taught at the University of Illinois at Chicago in the Ma ungekürzt.

The Holographic Universe , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 126min
There seems to be evidence to suggest that our world and everything in it are only ghostly images: projections from a level of reality so beyond our own that the real reality is literally beyond both space and time. The main architect of this astonishing idea is one of the world’s most eminent thinkers - physicist David Bohm, a protégé of Einstein’s. In this executive summary, Chuck gives a current perspective on some of the areas that define our reality.Could the cosmos be a super-hologram?What is one of the fundamental errors commonly made in the field of astronomy?What is the nature of reality?What are the implications of this understanding? ungekürzt.

Science Argues for God: A Primer , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 79min
For those not familiar with Baumann’s hospice manual, this primer covers similar scientific topics which support the existence of a higher intelligence in the Universe, chiefly through quantum physics made simple. As a past religious skeptic, the author came to realize that the elements of Einstein’s theory (now proven) argue for the existence of God through the concepts of special relativity and quantum mechanics. Strange but true, these concepts display characteristics of a uniquely spiritual nature, utilizing descriptions that we have previously reserved only to describe God. The arguments presented in this non-denominational audio are not meant to replace any one religion - but to complement all religions. Modern science now supports spirituality, and one is not complete without the other. Once again, Baumann reveals that reality is stranger than fiction. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: T.
