Briefe
Albert Einstein war nicht nur der größte Wissenschaftler seiner Zeit, sondern auch der berühmteste. Mehr noch: er beantwortete Briefe. Und diese Kombination macht das vorliegende Buch möglich. Es ist keine Biographie und erklärt nicht Einsteins Ideen. Es hat keine Kapitel, keine Inhaltsübersicht, kein Register und, auf den ersten Blick, keinen zugrundeliegenden Plan und keine Gliederung. Es besteht zum größten Teil aus Zitaten aus bisher unveröffentlichten Briefen und Zeugnissen, die Einstein ohne Gedanken an eine Publikation schrieb. Dennoch sind sie wunderbar lesbar, unterhaltsam und eindrücklich und zeigen Einstein neben dem Wissenschaftler und Menschen als grandiosen Briefeschreiber, der selbstironisch meinte: »Wenn alle Leute so lebten wie ich, wahrlich, die Romanschriftstellerei wäre dann niemals auf die Welt gekommen.«

Relativity
2010 Reprint of 1920 First English Edition. First English translation of Einstein's theory of relativity. In this work Einstein intended, as far as possible, to give an exact insight into the theory of Relativity to those readers who, from a general and scientific philosophical point of view, are interested in the theory, but who are not conversant with the mathematical apparatus of theoretical physics. The theory of relativity enriched physics and astronomy during the 20th century. When first published, relativity superseded a 200-year-old theory of mechanics elucidated by Isaac Newton. It changed perceptions. For example, it overturned the concept of motion from Newton's day, into all motion is relative. Time was no longer uniform and absolute, as related to everyday experience. Furthermore, no longer could physics be understood as space by itself, and time by itself. Instead, an added dimension had to be taken into account with curved space-time. Time now depended on velocity, and contraction became a fundamental consequence at appropriate speeds.

Relativity (Translated)
Relativity: The Special and the General Theory began as a short paper and was eventually published as a book written by Albert Einstein with the aim of giving: "an exact insight into the theory of relativity to those readers who, from a general scientific and philosophical point of view, are interested in the theory, but who are not conversant with the mathematical apparatus of theoretical physics. (From Preface) It was first published in German in 1916 and later translated into English in 1920.[1][2][3] It is divided into 3 parts, the first dealing with special relativity, the second dealing with general relativity and the third dealing with considerations on the universe as a whole. There have been many versions published since the original in 1916 and this proves to be the best translated English edition. (lib)

Relatività. Esposizione divulgativa e scritti classici su spazio geometria fisica
Nello stato magmatico della fisica novecentesca Albert Einstein è il nucleo solido, la roccia stabilmente configurata che sta al centro. Di qui la sua posizione di "classico", come testimonia al più alto livello questa esposizione della teoria della relatività. Una teoria che ha segnato un vero mutamento di paradigma, non solo in campo scientifico: la potenza teorica dell'equivalenza relativistica massa-energia ha trovato, come sappiamo, la sua tragica verifica a Hiroshima, nel terrificante potenziale distruttivo della bomba atomica. Oggi, a oltre un secolo dalla originaria formulazione einsteiniana, è la comprensione della "relatività della relatività" che vuol essere perseguita. A introdurre il lettore a questa nuova dimensione provvede un'antologia di scritti di quegli autori che fondarono la scienza fisico-matematica classica e ne avviarono l'evoluzione in senso relativistico.

Relativity for Non-Scientists
The present book is intended, as far as possible, to give an exact insight into the theory of Relativity to those readers who, from a general scientific and philosophical point of view, are interested in the theory, but who are not conversant with the mathematical apparatus of theoretical physics. The work presumes a standard of education corresponding to that of a university matriculation examination, and, despite the shortness of the book, a fair amount of patience and force of will on the part of the reader. The author has spared himself no pains in his endeavor to present the main ideas in the simplest and most intelligible form, and on the whole, in the sequence and connection in which they actually originated. In the interest of clearness, it appeared to me inevitable that I should repeat myself frequently, without paying the slightest attention to the elegance of the presentation. I adhered scrupulously to the precept of that brilliant theoretical physicist L. Boltzmann, according to whom matters of elegance ought to be left to the tailor and to the cobbler. I make no pretence of having withheld from the reader difficulties which are inherent to the subject. On the other hand, I have purposely treated the empirical physical foundations of the theory in a "step-motherly" fashion, so that readers unfamiliar with physics may not feel like the wanderer who was unable to see the forest for the trees. May the book bring someone a few happy hours of suggestive thought! (lib)

The Foundation of the Generalized Theory of Relativity
The theory which is sketched in the following pages forms the most wide-going generalization conceivable of what is at present known as "the theory of Relativity;" this latter theory I differentiate from the former "Special Relativity theory," and suppose it to be known. The generalization of the Relativity theory has been made much easier through the form given to the special Relativity theory by Minkowski, which mathematician was the first to recognize clearly the formal equivalence of the space like and time-like co-ordinates, and who made use of it in the building up of the theory. The mathematical apparatus useful for the general relativity theory, lay already complete in the "Absolute Differential Calculus", which were based on the researches of Gauss, Riemann and Christoffel on the non-Euclidean manifold, and which have been shaped into a system by Ricci and Levi-Civita, and already applied to the problems of theoretical physics. I have in part B of this communication developed in the simplest and clearest manner, all the supposed mathematical auxiliaries, not known to Physicists, which will be useful for our purpose, so that, a study of the mathematical literature is not necessary for an understanding of this paper. Finally in this place I thank my friend Grossmann, by whose help I was not only spared the study of the mathematical literature pertinent to this subject, but who also aided me in the researches on the field equations of gravitation.

Come io vedo il mondo-La teoria della relatività. Ediz. integrale
Il volume raccoglie insieme due opere tra le più note del grande scienziato: l'eccezionale scoperta che apriva alla scienza nuovi orizzonti di ricerca e sperimentazione verso rivoluzionarie creazioni e i dubbi, gli interrogativi, i pensieri dell'uomo che ha dato nuove leggi fisiche all'universo, non solo sul modo di concepire lo spazio e il tempo, ma sull'alternativa tra progresso e autodistruzione che oggi si pone ai popoli della terra. Due opere per conoscere Einstein: lo scienziato che ha rivoluzionato la nostra idea del tempo e dello spazio, l'uomo dal grande impegno civile, preoccupato per le sorti dell'umanità.

Sidelights on Relativity (Illustrated Edition)
Two unabridged addresses summarizing aspects of Einstein's Special and General Theories of Relativity comprise this succinct volume. The first, Ether and Relativity, was delivered in 1920 and examines the properties demanded of the ether of space by the theory of relativity. Geometry and Experience, delivered the following year, describes the limits within which the Euclidean system can be held to be approximately true in relation to the concept of a finite universe. Written clearly and concisely, these lectures are a fascinating read for both scientist and layman. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork. (lib)

Son Yillarim
Son Yillarim, 1934-1950 yillari arasinda, kismen 2 Dünya Savasini da icine alan bir dönemde, zamanimizin en büyük bilim insaninin cesitli ilgi alanlarina dair yazdigi dikkat cekici yazilardan olusuyor. Pek cogu günümüzde de hala cözüm bulmamis, irkciliktan dünya barisina, bilim ve din arasindaki iliskiden egitime, görelilikten sosyalizme kadar cesitli önemli meseleler üzerinde düsündügünü gösteren, savas öncesindeki ve savas yillarindaki fikirlerini yansitan yazilarinda baskin duygu olan karamsarlik, savas sonrasinda yerini daha olumlu, daha iyimser bir bakis acisina birakiyor. Fikirler ve inanclar, bilim, genel konular, bilim ve yasam, önemli kisiler ve benim insanlarim olarak bölümlere ayrilmis bu kitaptaki yazilar, onun politik dünya görüsünü yansittigi kadar hem bilimsel hem bilim disi meseleler üzerinde ne kadar kafa yordugunun da kaniti. Insan, yasam ne kadar kisa ve tehlikelerle dolu olursa olsun, kendini topluma adamak suretiyle yasamda bir anlam yaratabilir, diyor bu büyük bilim insani. Günümüzde onun bu ögüdünü tutanlarin sayisinin artmasini diliyoruz. (lib)
