Review # 2 was written on 2020-11-13 00:00:00 Roberto Belan This book took a little while to get into. By that I mean, I had to completely change gears in reading style, topic, and expectations while reading this book. I will admit, however, that I didn't think I would enjoy this book. I was wrong. Five Equations...is about 5 mathematical scientists; Isaac Newton, Daniel Bernoulli, Michael Faraday, Rudolf Clausius, and Albert Einstein (law of gravity, hydrodynamic pressure, electromagnetic induction, thermodynamics, and theory of relatively - respectively) who basically change the world, as the title suggests. However, instead of the "dry" text that I was expecting, this book talked about each life, their trial and tribulations, and how each man came to not only mathematics but how each discovered their equations. One of things I enjoyed about this book is that each man was very relatable in the beginning. Not all genius came from means, some were illiterate with less than desirable futures who rose above their station and made a difference. I also liked the fact that I was reminded about how things began. For example, with todays technology it's easy to forget that at one point, scientist or doctors didn't know how the body worked, or how water flowed, our universe, heat, light, etc... That at one point it all began with curiousity, an experiment, failures, discoveries, and then hopefully success. |
