Stephen Hawking : Friendship and Physics - Leonard Mlodinow
CHOSEN AS A BOOK OF THE YEAR BY THE GUARDIAN, DAILY TELEGRAPH, NEW STATESMAN AND BBC SCIENCE FOCUS An intimate, unique, and inspiring perspective on the life and work of one of the greatest minds of our time. Filled with insight, humour, and never-before-told stories, it s a view of Stephen Hawking that few have seen and all will appreciate James Clear, author of Atomic Habits An icon of the last fifty years, Stephen Hawking seems to encapsulate genius: not since Albert Einstein has a scientific figure held such a position in popular consciousness. In this enthralling memoir, writer and physicist Leonard Mlodinow tells the story of his friend and their collaboration, offering an intimate account of this giant of science. The two met in 2003, when Stephen asked Leonard if he would consider writing a book with him, the follow up to the bestselling A Brief History of Time. As they spent years working on a second book, The Grand Design, they forged a deep connection and Leonard gained a much better understanding of Stephen s daily life and struggles -- as well as his compassion and good humour. Together they obsessed over the perfect sentence, debated the physics, and occasionally punted on Cambridge s waterways with champagne and strawberries. In time, Leonard was able to finish Stephen s jokes, chide his sporadic mischief, and learn how the hardships of his illness helped forge that unique perspective on the universe. By weaving together their shared story with a clear-sighted portrayal of Hawking s scientific achievements, Mlodinow creates a beautiful portrait of Stephen Hawking as a brilliant, impish and generous man whose life was not only exceptional but also genuinely inspiring.

Stephen Hawking: Paměti o přátelství a fyzice - Leonard Mlodinow
Stephen Hawking byl jedním z nejvýznamnějších fyziků naší doby, který ovlivnil životy milionů lidí. Fyzik a spisovatel Leonard Mlodinow ve své nové knize nabízí unikátní a nanejvýš osobní portrét jedinečného muže, s nímž téměř dvě desetiletí spolupracoval na různých knihách a se kterým ho pojilo vřelé přátelství. Setkáváme se s Hawkingem jako s géniem, který se zaměřuje na odhalení záhad vesmíru a nakonec formuluje průkopnickou teorii černých děr, jež znovu rozvíří vody kosmologie a odkryje zcela nové cesty fyzikům zkoumajícím původ vesmíru. Setkáváme se také s Hawkingem jako kolegou, jemuž jeho nemoc umožňuje komunikovat rychlostí pouze šesti slov za minutu, ale který nikdy nezapomene do těchto rozhovorů začlenit i humor. A setkáváme se s Hawkingem také jako s přítelem, který toho dokáže tolik říct pouhým úsměvem nebo jen zvednutím obočí. Modinow nás seznámí s Hawkingovou vášní pro víno a karí, zasvětí nás do jeho vztahu k lásce, smrti a zdravotnímu postižení, nevyhýbá se ani hlubokým otázkám filozofie a fyziky. Ať už líčí Hawkingovu oddanost práci, nebo barvitě popisuje příběh o tom, jak se Hawking vzdorovitě vymočil u keře na dvorku restaurace, která neměla bezbariérovou toaletu, vždy dokáže skvěle zachytit jeho nezkrotného ducha. Příběh hlubokého přátelství, který máte před sebou, vás naučí mnohé nejen o povaze a užitečnosti fyziky, ale také o životě a schopnostech lidí překonat ty nejtěžší překážky.

Stručné odpovede na veľké otázky - Stephen Hawking - audiokniha
Audiokniha: Počas celej svojej výnimočnej životnej a profesionálnej dráhy Stephen Hawking rozšíril naše poznatky o vesmíre a objasnil niektoré z jeho najväčších záhad. A hoci jeho teoretická práca o čiernych dierach, imaginárnom čase a viacnásobných históriách zaviedla jeho myseľ do najvzdialenejších končín vesmíru, Hawking bol vždy presvedčený, že pomocou vedy dokážeme vyriešiť problémy aj na našej planéte. V čase, keď čelíme potenciálne katastrofickým zmenám na Zemi – od zmeny podnebia cez ubúdania prírodných zdrojov po hrozbu umelej super inteligencie –, obrátil Stephen Hawking pozornosť na najnaliehavejšie otázky ľudstva. Stručné odpovede na veľké otázky, posledná kniha Stephena Hawkinga, je intelektuálne podnetným, vášnivo vyargumentovaným osobným pohľadom vedca na výzvy, ktorým čelíme ako ľudstvo, a na to, kam ako planéta ďalej smerujeme. „Neopúšťať planétu Zem je ako byť stroskotancom na pustom ostrove a nepokúšať sa odtiaľ uniknúť. Bojujme spoločne za to, aby každá žena a každý muž mohli prežiť slušný a bezpečný život, prekypujúci možnosťami a láskou. My všetci sme cestovatelia v čase, na spoločnej ceste do budúcnosti. Pracujme však spolu na tom, aby sa z tejto budúcnosti stalo miesto, ktoré chceme navštíviť. Buďte odvážni, zvedaví, odhodlaní, prekonávajte prekážky. Dá sa to.

Hawking ve své knize určené širokému okruhu čtenářů zkoumá řadu z největších záhad vesmíru, i potenciální problémy, kterým čelí nebo může čelit lidstvo na naší domovské planetě. Kniha je rozdělena do čtyř oddílů s názvy Proč jsme tady? Přežijeme? Zachrání nás technologie, anebo zničí? Jak zajistit, aby se nám dařilo dobře? a zvažuje se v ní desítka velkých otázek - Existuje Bůh? Jak to všechno začalo? Co je uvnitř černé díry? Dokážeme předvídat budoucnost? Je možné cestovat v čase? Přežijeme na planetě Zemi? Existuje ve vesmíru inteligentní život? Měli bychom vesmír kolonizovat? Může nás umělá inteligence přechytračit? Jak utváříme budoucnost? V textu autor rozebírá mnohé obtíže, které mohou lidstvo ohrozit -, například klimatická změna, jaderná válka, rozvoj umělé existence, genetické modifikace člověka či střetnutí Země s asteroidem a prosazuje názor, že důležitou úlohu při řešení problémů na planetě Zemi sehraje věda.

Skutečný Hawking (9788025738481)
Elektronická kniha - autor Charles Seife, 388 stran, česky Ve své knize autor zkoumá, jak došlo k tomu, že Stephen Hawking je považován za jednoho z největších géniů lidstva. Hawking sice strávil svou vědeckou dráhu řešením hlubokých fyzikálních problémů, jeho proslulost však nespočívá na vědě. Byl totiž i mistrem sebepropagace – pořádal večírky pro cestovatele časem, prohlašoval se za řešitele problémů, které nevyřešil, vlichocoval se miliardářům. Byl sice upoután na invalidní vozík a odkázán na péči oddaných příznivců, přesto si však dokázal lidi kolem sebe podmanit a využít pro své cíle. Skutečný Hawking je kontroverzní odhalení i vynikající biografie současně. Odkrývá skutečnou osobu skrytou pod nánosem výmyslů. Je to příběh muže, jehož genialitě ve vědě se plně vyrovnala jeho schopnost budovat mýtus o sobě samém. lt;br gt; lt;br gt; Nelichotivá, ale výtečná biografie jednoho z gigantů fyziky 20. století. lt;br gt; Kirkus

A Brief History Of Time - Stephen Hawking
Was there a beginning of time? Could time run backwards? Is the universe infinite or does it have boundaries? These are just some of the questions considered in an internationally acclaimed masterpiece by one of the world s greatest thinkers. It begins by reviewing the great theories of the cosmos from Newton to Einstein, before delving into the secrets which still lie at the heart of space and time, from the Big Bang to black holes, via spiral galaxies and strong theory. To this day A Brief History of Time remains a staple of the scientific canon, and its succinct and clear language continues to introduce millions to the universe and its wonders.
