Einstein voor beginners
description: In de Beginners-serie: verhaal over het leven van Einstein in stripvorm. In dit boek ontmoet u - naast Albert Einstein natuurlijk - wat Duitsland in de keizertijd aan wetenschappelijke voorhoede te bieden had. Verder Faraday, Galileï, Newton - het neusje van de zalm kortom. En waar gaat het allemaal over? Over hoe de tweede industriële revolutie, de elektronische communicatie en technologie de relativiteitstheorie noodzakelijk maakten. Over hoe Einstein en zijn vrienden de gevestigde wetenschap te lijf gingen met radicaal nieuwe ideeën over ruimte, tijd en materie. Over waarom een klok in een vliegtuig achter gaat lopen. Over waarom niets en niemand sneller kan bewegen dan het licht. Albert Einstein aan het volk verklaard!

Quantum computing since Democritus
description: Written by noted quantum computing theorist Scott Aaronson, this book takes readers on a tour through some of the deepest ideas of maths, computer science and physics. Full of insights, arguments and philosophical perspectives, the book covers an amazing array of topics. Beginning in antiquity with Democritus, it progresses through logic and set theory, computability and complexity theory, quantum computing, cryptography, the information content of quantum states and the interpretation of quantum mechanics. There are also extended discussions about time travel, Newcomb's Paradox, the anthropic principle and the views of Roger Penrose. Aaronson's informal style makes this fascinating book accessible to readers with scientific backgrounds, as well as students and researchers working in physics, computer science, mathematics and philosophy.

Modern Cosmology - Second Edition
description: Modern Cosmology, Second Edition, provides a detailed introduction to the field of cosmology. Beginning with the smooth, homogeneous universe described by a Friedmann-Lemaître-Robertson-Walker metric, this trusted resource includes careful treatments of dark energy, big bang nucleosynthesis, recombination, and dark matter. The reader is then introduced to perturbations about an FLRW universe: their evolution with the Einstein-Boltzmann equations, their primordial generation by inflation, and their observational consequences: the acoustic peaks in the CMB; the E/B decomposition in polarization; gravitational lensing of the CMB and large-scale structure; and the BAO standard ruler and redshift-space distortions in galaxy clustering. The Second Edition now also covers nonlinear structure formation including perturbation theory and simulations. The book concludes with a substantially updated chapter on data analysis. Modern Cosmology, Second Edition, shows how modern observations are rapidly revolutionizing our picture of the universe, and supplies readers with all the tools needed to work in cosmology.
