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 HabitsAn 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 ... Unknown localization key: "more"

On the Origin of Time: Stephen Hawking´s final theory - Thomas Hertog

A new theory of the universe, twenty years in the making, by Stephen Hawking and his close collaborator Thomas Hertog.Perhaps the biggest question Stephen Hawking tried to answer in his extraordinary life was how the universe could have created conditions so perfectly hospitable to life.Pondering this mystery led Hawking to study the big bang origin of the universe, but his early work ran into a crisis when the maths predicted many big bangs producing a multiverse - countless different universes, most of which were far too bizarre to harbour life.Holed up in the theoretical physics department at Cambridge, Stephen Hawking and his friend and collaborator Thomas Hertog worked shoulder to shoulder for twenty years on a new quantum theory of the cosmos. As their discoveries took them deeper into the big bang, they were startled to find a deeper level of evolution in which the physical laws themselves transform and simplify until particles, forces, and even time itself fades away. Once upon a time, perhaps, there was no time. This led them to a revolutionary idea: the laws of physics are not set in stone but are born and co-evolve as the universe they govern takes shape.On the Origin of ...

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."

To the public he was a tragic figure - a brilliant scientist and author of the 9 million-copy-selling A Brief History of Time, and yet spent the majority of his life confined to a wheelchair and almost completely paralysed.Hawking''s major contribution to science was to integrate the two great theories of 20th-century physics: Einstein''s General Theory of Relativity and Quantum Mechanics.J.P. McEvoy and Oscar Zarate''s brilliant graphic guide explores Hawking''s life, the evolution of his work from his days as a student, and his breathtaking discoveries about where these fundamental laws break down or overlap, such as on the edge of a Black Hole or at the origin of the Universe itself.

But it is also true that in the years since its publication, readers have repeatedly told Professor Hawking of their great difficulty in understanding some of the book''s most important concepts.

Black Holes: The Reith Lectures - Stephen Hawking

"It is said that fact is sometimes stranger than fiction, and nowhere is that more true than in the case of black holes. Black holes are stranger than anything dreamed up by science fiction writers." In 2016 Professor Stephen Hawking delivered the BBC Reith Lectures on a subject that has fascinated him for decades - black holes. In these flagship lectures the legendary physicist argues that if we could only understand black holes and how they challenge the very nature of space and time, we could unlock the secrets of the universe.

New Scientist: The Origin of (almost) Everything - Stephen Hawking, New Scientist, Graham Lawton

~i~>Introduction by Professor Stephen Hawking.When Edwin Hubble looked into his telescope in the 1920s, he was shocked to find that nearly all of the galaxies he could see through it were flying away from one another. If these galaxies had always been travelling, he reasoned, then they must, at some point, have been on top of one another. This discovery transformed the debate about one of the most fundamental questions of human existence - how did the universe begin?Every society has stories about the origin of the cosmos and its inhabitants, but now, with the power to peer into the early universe and deploy the knowledge gleaned from archaeology, geology, evolutionary biology and cosmology, we are closer than ever to understanding where it all came from. In The Origin of (almost) Everything, New Scientist explores the modern origin stories of everything from the Big Bang, meteorites and dark energy, to dinosaurs, civilisation, timekeeping, belly-button fluff and beyond.From how complex life evolved on Earth, to the first written language, to how humans conquered space, The Origin of (almost) Everything offers a unique history of the past, present and future of our universe.span

How to Think Like Stephen Hawking - Daniel Smith

A unique insight into one of science’s greatest minds of the last half-century. Undoubtedly the most famous name in science and the very face of physics over the last half-century, Stephen Hawking was remarkable for many reasons. Not least because he continued to strive to achieve so much while being hindered by debilitating illness. He demonstrated categorically that if you put your mind to it, you can achieve anything, no matter your physical state. Of course, it helps if you happen to possess a mind such as he did. His work on black holes put him on the map, and he became globally famous for his A Brief History of Time, communicating the most difficult scientific ideas at a period when he’d lost the ability to speak.

Stručné odpovědi na velké otázky - Stephen Hawking

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.

Rags - Maria Isabel Vaz, Snia Vaz Borges

A memoir of a mother and daughter’s return to Cabo Verde reveals the legacies of national liberation, a story of memory and migration, and the psychic and physical landscape that colonialism has wrought.When Sonia Vaz Borges accompanied her mother, Maria Isabel Vaz, home to Santiago Island, Cabo Verde, it was the first time she experienced the island where her mother and family were born, and where her mother left forty years earlier. As a historian, documentarian, and a Black Cabo Verdean young woman born in Portugal, she booked a trip to a native land she’s never been to in order to conduct research on the history of militant resistance to Portuguese colonialism, of the education initiatives of the African Party for the Independence of Guinea Bissau and Cabo Verde (PAIGC), and the lessons for freedom available for today.           What she discovers are lifelong lessons as illuminating as anything her PhD revealed to her. The fragments of memories, episodes, and encounters in Cabo Verde that she assembled in this travel diary reveal an experience of “homegoing” that is rich with the legacies of national liberation, the story of a Black woman’s ...

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. Nelichotivá, ale výtečná biografie jednoho z gigantů fyziky 20. století. Kirkus

Hawking: Geniální fyzik v grafickém románu (978-80-271-2486-2)

Kniha - autor Jim Ottaviani; Leland Myrick, 304 stran, česky, pevná bez přebalu lesklá Stephen Hawking byl geniální fyzik a kromě toho také velmi zábavný člověk, který měl rád společnost a byl velmi oblíbený – tato kombinace vlastností ho vlastně předurčovala k tomu, aby se stal globální celebritou. V jedenadvaceti letech mu bylo diagnostikováno vzácné neurodegenerativní onemocnění, které omezilo jeho schopnost se pohybovat a mluvit, ale naštěstí nemělo vliv na jeho pronikavou mysl. Přestože mu lékaři předpovídali jen několik let života, Hawking ještě dlouhá desetiletí pokračoval ve výzkumech v oblasti kosmologie a teoretické fyziky. Po vydání knihy Stručná historie času, v níž brilantně přiblížil složité fyzikální zákony vesmíru nejširší veřejnosti, se stal i popkulturní ikonou: objevil se například v televizních seriálech Star Trek: Nová generace, Simpsonovi nebo Teorie velkého třesku, vždy ale také vystupoval jako přední obhájce práv tělesně postižených.
