商品描述

Lewis Carroll Epstein explains deep ideas in physics in an easy-to-understand way. Thinking Physics is a perfect beginner’s guide to an amazingly wide range of physics-related questions. The book targets topics that science teachers and students spend time wondering about, like wing lift. Epstein elucidates the familiar but misunderstood — such as how tides work — along with more obscure but fascinating phenomena like the “Bernoulli sub” and the “artificial aurora” created by hydrogen bombs. Broken into many short sections and peppered with Epstein’s own playful hand-drawn illustrations, the book does not simply give the right answer: It also goes into the answers that seem right but are wrong and shows why they are wrong — a rarity in science books. Thinking Physics is a rigorously correct, lighthearted, and cleverly designed Q and A book for physicists of all ages.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

劉易斯·卡羅爾·艾普斯坦以易於理解的方式解釋物理學中的深奧概念。《思考物理學》是一本完美的初學者指南,涵蓋了各種與物理相關的問題。這本書針對科學教師和學生常常思考的主題,例如翼升力。艾普斯坦闡明了那些熟悉但常被誤解的概念——例如潮汐的運作——以及一些較為冷門但引人入勝的現象,如“伯努利次”以及氫彈所產生的“人造極光”。書中分為許多短小的部分,並穿插了艾普斯坦自己手繪的幽默插圖,這本書不僅僅提供正確的答案:它還探討那些看似正確但實際上錯誤的答案,並解釋為什麼它們是錯的——這在科學書籍中是相當罕見的。《思考物理學》是一本嚴謹正確、輕鬆愉快且巧妙設計的問答書,適合所有年齡層的物理學家。
