Book Age of Fog

Product description

From Marie Curie to Max Planck, from Einstein to Heisenberg – Reinventing the World. The Golden Age of Physics revolutionized our thinking and the world. Tobias Horter describes this era and the astonishing biographies of scientific geniuses in an engaging and accessible way, demonstrating the close connection between science and world events. Because we cannot observe the world without changing it. Marie Curie, Planck, Bohr, Heisenberg, Schrödinger, and Einstein not only sparked a revolution in physics, but also reinvented our world, shaping our contemporary reality. They were rational, astonishing, or obsessive adventurers who shared deep friendships and bitter rivalries. The often intersecting life paths of these intellectual heroes offer a rich treasure trove of great stories. At the same time, their research sparked an unexpected scientific impetus that led to a new worldview in physics, one that remains incompletely understood even today. But the age of relativity and quantum mechanics was also an age of wars and revolutions. The discovery of radioactivity revolutionized science, ultimately leading to the catastrophes of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Tobias Horter tells us in "The Age of Fog" that science cannot be separated from world events, because the world cannot be seen without changing it.
