DISPONIBILITÀ GARANTITA AL 99%; SPEDIZIONE ENTRO 12 ORE DALL'ORDINE. BUONE/OTTIME CONDIZIONI GENERALI, LIEVI MACCHIETTE/FIORITURE, BRUNITURA E SEGNI DEL TEMPO. PRIME PAGINE VOLANTI. PRIMA E RARA EDIZIONE ITALIANA. Sebbene Einstein sia considerato un personaggio di primo piano nella storia del pensiero umano, pochi si ritengono all'altezza di seguire passo passo le rivoluzionarie conquiste della sua ricerca. Uno dei più stretti collaboratori di Einstein, Leopold Infeld, crede che questa diffidenza sia ingiustificata, e che anche il lettore non specializzato possa essere messo a contatto con le idee fondamentali della sua concezione. "Verrà il giorno, - egli scrive, - che i principi della relatività verranno insegnati nelle scuole medie. Sono idee semplici ed essenziali, anche se il tradurle in termini di linguaggio ordinario non è operazione da poco". Con questo volumetto Infeld intende appunto "tradurre" e interpretare i risultati scientifici di Einstein. Egli discute le grandi rivoluzioni einsteiniane - la relatività speciale, la relatività generale, il contributo di Einstein alla teoria dei quanti e le moderne teorie sulla struttura dell'universo, - con l'autorità e con la perfetta chiarezza di chi ha dedicato la sua vita e i suoi studi ai massimi problemi della fisica teorica.
