Description
Amazon #1 Best Seller"It's very useful to have a unified overview of what we know, collected and recounted in one place. The Cosmic Machine​ will introduce you to the basic principles by which today's physicists organize the world." -Sean Carroll, author of The Big Picture: On the Origins of Life, Meaning, and the Universe Itself "A superb resource for science fans or those struggling to understand the subject; an impressive fit in an age of Bill Nye and Neil deGrasse Tyson web videos." -Kirkus Reviews​ "The Cosmic Machine​ succeeds on all accounts." -Midwest Book ReviewEnergy, Entropy, Atoms, and Quantum Mechanics form the very foundation of our universe. But how do they govern the world we live in? What was the difficult path to their discovery? Who were the key players that struggled to shape our current understanding?The Cosmic Machine​ takes you from the earliest scientific inquiries in human history on an exciting journey in search of the answers to these questions. In telling this fascinating story of science, the reader is masterfully guided through the wonderment of how scientific discoveries (and the key players of those discoveries) shaped the world as we know it today. With its unique blend of science, history, and biographies, The Cosmic Machine​ provides an easily accessible account without sacrificing the actual science itself. Not only will this book engage, enlighten, and entertain you, it will inspire your passion and curiosity for the world around us.

The best thing about this book is, it provides the reader with backstories about the lives of scientists who were responsible for the great discoveries in physics and chemistry. I especially liked the quirky human interest stories about these scientists, who were humans, just like the rest of us.Author Bembenek has done an outstanding job. We seem to forget that humans have somehow pulled themselves up by the bootstraps to develop our present understanding of nature.I was particularly impressed with the following facts:- Prior to 1905 - really not that long ago - the concept of atoms was not fully understood.- Young Albert Einstein's ideas faced extreme opposition within the established scientific community- Max Planck developed the idea of "discrete states" using classical physics concepts; but it was Einstein who described the true significance of Planck's ideas, leading the way to quantum theory.- Erwin Schrodinger. famous for developing the equation describing quantum waves, strongly disagreed with the others who were also concurrently developing quantum theories. (An extremely interesting cast of characters in that particular story!)Fascinating stuff. Very well written.
