Description




David R. Topper, Quirky Sides of Scientists: True Tales of Ingenuity and Error from Physics and Astronomy
Springer | ISBN 9780387710181 | 2007 | PDF | 1.72 MB | 218 pages

The overall structure of the book is plain. Sandwiched between two chapters on the doggedness of Einstein are ten more in approximately chronological order, beginning with an ancient astronomical measurement followed by episodes from the Scientific Revolution (Copernicus through Newton), with accompanying background narratives from ancient science, telling tales revealing some quirky sides of scientists. The format is simple: every chapter constitutes more or less an essay unto itself; furthermore, each is divided into subsections, which are occasionally followed by boxed-in essays on specific peripheral topics. To preserve the integrity of the argument of each chapter while concomitantly avoiding too much duplication, I have cross-referenced relevant material from elsewhere in the book by section number, for example, “see section 2.3” means section 3 of Chapter 2. Accordingly, the book may be read in any order. So, begin browsing, perusing, reading—wherever you wish.



GREAT!!!!
