En savoir plus sur le livre
It was through the brilliance of five fascinating people - Michael Faraday, Daniel Bernoulli, Isaac Newton, Rudolf Clausius and Albert Einstein - that we were able to harness the power of electricity, fly in aeroplanes, land astronauts on the moon, build a nuclear bomb, and understand the mortality of all life on Earth. FIVE EQUATIONS THAT CHANGED THE WORLD tells the amazing stories of the people and the discoveries that led to the five most powerful and important scientific achievements in human history. In accessible yet unpatronising language, Dr Michael Guillen re-creates the political debates, social upheaval, religious sanctions, family tragedies and personal ambitions that contributed to each man's work, illuminating the secret world of mathematics in a dramatic and personal way that will entertain as well as enlighten.
