Physics von perelman yakov (33 Ergebnisse)

Hardback. Zustand: Very Good. Published in 1913, a best-seller in the 1930s and long out of print, Physics for Entertainment was translated from Russian into many languages and influenced science students around the world. Among them was Grigori Yakovlevich Perelman, the Russian mathematician (unrelated to the author), who solved the Poincare conjecture, and who was awarded and rejected the Fields Medal. Grigori's father, an electrical engineer, gave him Physics for Entertainment to encourage his son's interest in mathematics. In the foreword, the book's author describes the contents as conundrums, brain-teasers, entertaining anecdotes, and unexpected comparisons, adding, I have quoted extensively from Jules Verne, H. G. Wells, Mark Twain and other writers, because, besides providing entertainment, the fantastic experiments these writers describe may well serve as instructive illustrations at physics classes. The book's topics included how to jump from a moving car, and why, according to the law of buoyancy, we would never drown in the Dead Sea. Ideas from this book are still used by science teachers today.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - First published in 1913, Physics for Entertainment became a bestseller in the 1930s and, although long out of print, was translated from Russian into many languages, inspiring science students around the world. Among those influenced was Russian mathematician Grigori Yakovlevich Perelman (unrelated to the author), who later solved the Poincaré conjecture and famously declined the Fields Medal. Perelman's father, an electrical engineer, gave him the book to encourage his early interest in mathematics. In the foreword, the author describes the contents as 'conundrums, brain-teasers, entertaining anecdotes, and unexpected comparisons,' noting that he quoted extensively from writers such as Jules Verne, H. G. Wells, and Mark Twain because their imaginative experiments could serve as instructive illustrations in physics classes. The book explored a wide range of engaging topics, including how to jump from a moving car and why, 'according to the law of buoyancy, we would never drown in the Dead Sea.' Many of its ideas remain popular among science teachers today.…
