ISBN: 0415404258 ISBN-13: 9780415404259 Publisher: Routledge OUR PRICE: $21.80 Product Type: Paperback - Other Formats Published: September 2006 Annotation: In this classic text, David Bohm explores Albert Einstein's celebrated theory of relativity through inspiring and visionary lectures. First published in 1905, Einstein's ideas forever transformed the way we think about time and space. Yet for Bohm the implications of the theory were far more revolutionary both in scope and impact even than this. Stepping back from dense theoretical and scientific detail in this eye-opening work, Bohm describes how the notion of relativity strikes at the heart of our very conception of the universe, whether we are physicists, philosophers or none of the above. |
