With his work on relativity and quantum theory, Albert Einstein has altered the field of physics forever. It should not come as a surprise that looking back at Einstein's work, one needs to rethink the whole scope of physics, before and after his time. This books aims to provide a perspective on the history of modern physics, spanning from the late 19th century up to today. It is not an encyclopedic work, but it presents the groundbreaking and sometimes 606 $aPhysics 615 0$aPhysics. 676 $a530 701 $aMamone Capria$b Marco$062178 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910163543303321 996 $aPhysics before and after Einstein$94151649 997 $aUNINA
