Sinopsis

Three captivating volumes reveal how Einstein viewed both the physical universe and the everyday world in which he lived. A century after his theory of general relativity shook the foundations of the scientific world, Albert Einstein’s name is still synonymous with genius. This collection is an introduction to one of the world’s greatest minds.Essays in Humanism Nuclear proliferation, Zionism, and the global economy are just a few of the insightful and surprisingly prescient topics scientist Albert Einstein discusses in this volume of collected essays from between 1931 and 1950. With a clear voice and a thoughtful perspective on the effects of science, economics, and politics in daily life, Einstein’s essays provide an intriguing view inside the mind of a genius as he addresses the philosophical challenges presented during the turbulence of the Great Depression, World War II, and the dawn of the Cold War.The Theory of Relativity and Other Essays E=mc2 may be Einstein’s most well-known contribution to modern science. Now, on the one-hundredth anniversary of the theory of general relativity, discover the thought process behind this famous equation. In this collection of his seven most important essays on physics, Einstein guides his reader through the many layers of scientific theory that formed a starting point for his discoveries. By both supporting and refuting the theories and scientific efforts of his predecessors, he reveals the origins and meaning of such significant topics as physics and reality, the fundamentals of theoretical physics, the common language of science, the laws of science and of ethics, and an elementary derivation of the equivalence of mass and energy. This remarkable collection, authorized by the Albert Einstein archives, allows the non-scientist to understand not only the significance of Einstein’s masterpiece, but also the brilliant mind behind it.The World As I See It Authorized by the Albert Einstein Archives, this is a fascinating collection of observations about life, religion, nationalism, and a host of personal topics that engaged the intellect of one of the world’s greatest minds. In the aftermath of World War I, Einstein writes about his hopes for the League of Nations, his feelings as a German citizen about the growing anti-Semitism and nationalism of his country, and his opinions about the current affairs of his day. In addition to these political perspectives, The World As I See It reveals the idealistic, spiritual, and witty side of this great intellectual as he approaches topics including “Good and Evil,” “Religion and Science,” “Active Pacifism,” “Christianity and Judaism,” and “Minorities.” Including letters, speeches, articles and essays written before 1935, this collection offers a complete portrait of Einstein as a humanitarian and as a human being trying to make sense of the changing world around him.This authorized ebook features new introductions by Neil Berger and an illustrated biography of Albert Einstein, which includes rare photos and never-before-seen documents from the Albert Einstein Archives at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem.

The ideas and inventions are conveyed in their own way, determining by their own place by intrinsic merit.

    A guided meditation designed to help you ENERGIZE during pregnancy. 
    How in the world are you supposed to deal with the exhaustion of pregnancy? 
    It all starts with your MIND.  
    Want more energy? You’ll need to shift your mindset.

    Hi:) I’m Amy Applebaum. And I’m really glad you are here! 
    As a business owner who has made millions and a Life Success coach who has coached dozens of ambitious women (and some men), I believe very strongly that success is just as much about ‘how you think’ as it is ‘what you do’. 
    Success is first and foremost an Inside Job. 
    I have seen it in my own life. 
    I’ve seen it with the entrepreneurs and industry leaders I have worked with whose lives have been wildly transformed just by changing their thoughts and then taking actions on those new beliefs. 
    Let’s face it. We have a lot on our plate. And those of us who are running our own businesses even more so. 
    We are giving so much to the world around us. 
    But things won’t shift until we get those birds on our shoulders to stop the negative chitchat. 
    And the best fastest way to cut the self-doubt in its tracks is through meditation. 
    And I make doing meditation dead easy.My MOVE collections are guided meditations. 
    You don’t have to learn the ‘ins and outs ’of meditation.  
    All you need to do is throw those earbuds in and drift off to sleep!Downloaded over 500,000 times on places like iTunes and Audible, my MOVE meditations don’t just ‘relax’ and destress, they are specifically designed to help you get MOVING and unstuck.So that you can finally live the life you have always wanted! 
    “This is truly amazing I feel so relaxed, confident and in charge of my own body.  Thank you for this amazing piece of work.” ~ Colinwest15 
    Isn’t it time?  
    Isn’t it time to set aside the roadblocks that are impeding you from enjoying the miracle growing inside of you? 
    And it’s so easy. 
    Just put the earbuds in and listen. 
    Nothing simpler.All you need to open the door to an energized pregnancy (the EASY way) 
    is waiting for you here.
