Light Physics

This audiobook follows the adventures of Max Axiom as he explains the science behind light.

Let There Be Light presents a simple, beautiful, and elegant view of the oneness of all life, subjective and objective. It demonstrates the unity of the physical world with conscious experience of the physical world. Consciousness is not inside space and time, space and time are within consciousness; they are a special structure of the perceptual portion of consciousness.

Author Cary Kirastar Ellis entices us to venture into the deeper secrets of who we are, why we're here, and where we're going...and, as we tumble down the veritable rabbit hole, we learn how thoughts "create reality" from an amazing, infinite Field of Possibilities. Discover real keys to true vitality, abundance, and well-being. Journey into the ultimate expression of our true design: love.

The perennial enigma the human mind has been encountering is the meaning of life and its place in the universe. On this subject, science and spirituality remained in discord with each other particularly for the last couple of centuries. The Theory of Relativity followed by quantum mechanics changed the worldview of traditional mindset altogether.

From the creation of life to the exploration of the heavens and the stars—from the origins of the earth to the possibility of life on other planets, Ben Bova unveils the beauty and science behind the phenomenon of light. Bova masterfully explains how light affects us every day of our lives—from our religions to our sex drives. He examines how we use light in art, science, industry, entertainment, cosmetics, jewelry, and myriad other ways. Using accessible language, Bova provides easy-to-understand examples that explain even the most difficult and mind-bending concepts.

David A. Grandy's book moves from the scientific to the existential, from Einstein to Merleau-Ponty, from light as a phenomenon to light as that which is constitutive of reality. To measure the speed of light is to measure something about the way we are measured or blended into the cosmos, and that universal blending predetermines our measurement of light speed in favor of a universal or constant value.

Vier Forscher und ein unablässiges Hin und Her der Ideen – vor hundert Jahren entstand eine neue Wissenschaft, die die Grenzen der Vorstellungskraft sprengte: die Quantenphysik. Ihre Protagonisten: Max Planck, Albert Einstein, Niels Bohr und Werner Heisenberg. Sie ergründeten das Innere der Atome und rangen mit einer scheinbar einfachen Frage: Was ist Licht? – zu einer Zeit, in der Elektrizität erstmals die Städte erhellte und Kino und Fotografie ihren Siegeszug antraten. Thomas de Padova lässt die fieberhafte Suche nach Antworten anhand der Begegnungen der Forscher lebendig werden.
