商品の説明

内容説明

Now in paperback, “For the Love of Physics captures Walter Lewin’s extraordinary intellect, passion for physics, and brilliance as a teacher” (Bill Gates).

Universally praised for the remarkably fun, inventive, and often wacky ways in which Walter Lewin brings the joys of physics to life—from super-charging a tricycle with a fire extinguisher to risking his life by putting his head in the path of a swinging wrecking ball—For the Love of Physics takes readers on a marvelous journey, opening our eyes as never before to the amazing beauty and power of all that physics can reveal to us, from the coolest, weirdest features of the tiniest bits of matter, to the wonders of our everyday lives. Lewin provides superbly clear and simple explanations of phenomena we’ve always wondered about, such as why rainbows form and why lightning strikes, as well as those beyond the wildest realms of imagination, such as what the Big Bang sounded like. A wonderful raconteur, Lewin always entertains as he edifies, and For the Love of Physics is a rare gem that will change the way readers see the world.

メディア掲載レビュー

“For the Love of Physics captures Walter Lewin’s extraordinary intellect, passion for physics and brilliance as a teacher. Hopefully, this book will bring even more people into the orbit of this extraordinary educator and scientist.“

—Bill Gates

“Walter Lewin's unabashed passion for physics shines through every page of this colorful, largely autobiographical tour of science. The excitement of discovery is infectious.”—Mario Livio, author of The Golden Ratio and Is God A Mathematician?

"In this fun, engaging and accessible book, Walter Lewin, a superhero of the classroom, uses his powers for Good – ours! The authors’ share the joy of learning that the world is a knowable place.”—James Kakalios, Professor and author of The Physics of Superheroes and The Amazing Story of Quantum Mechanics

“Fascinating...A delightful scientific memoir combined with a memorable introduction to physics.”—Kirkus

“MIT's Lewin is deservedly popular for his memorable physics lectures (both live and on MIT's Open Course Web site and YouTube), and this quick-paced autobiography–cum-physics intro fully captures his candor and lively teaching style…joyful…[this text] glows with energy and should please a wide range of readers.”—Publishers Weekly (starred review)

“As the hundreds of thousands of students who have witnessed [Lewin’s] lectures in person or online can attest, this classroom wizard transforms textbook formulas into magic…Lewin’s rare creativity shines through…a passport to adventure.” —Booklist (starred review)

世界1有名な物理の授業、YouTubeやMITのオンライン学習 OCWでも常にトップの人気の講座の講義録にエッセイを加えてていねいにまとめた本。もう何度もルーイン先生のビデオ講義は見てたので内容はよくわかりました。本書のあちこちで講義のハイライトが思い浮かべられます。ガリレオを題材にしたスケーリングの話なんかはビデオ講義では結論のところがあっさりしすぎてすぐに次の話題に入ってしまうけど、本書ではもう少し丁寧に説明されています。このようにすでにビデオ講義を受講した人が確認のために使うと有用ではないでしょうか。この本で解説されているのは 8.01の内容だけではなくて他の講義もカバーされてます。MIT WORLD のビデオも合わせて見ると面白いかもしれません。

この本の出版に合わせた最終講義もOCWで公開されています。

http://ocw.mit.edu/courses/physics/8-01-physics-i-classical-mechanics-fall-1999/video-lectures/for-the-love-of-physics/

講義の最後のQAでこの先生の授業がなぜこんなにも面白いのかがわかります。ルーイン先生は1つの授業のために50時間以上かけてレッスンプランを作り、2週間前に1度、1週間前にもう1度、空の教室でドライラン(リハーサル)をやっていたそうです。さらに授業当日の早朝に再び空の教室で最終のドライランをやってから授業の本番に臨むという徹底ぶり。毎回の授業の準備としてこれをずっとやっていたのはすごい。この間に時間ピッタリにすべての実験を終え、学生達の心に「物理への愛」を芽生えさせるための準備をしていたんですね。

ルーイン先生のビデオ講義を見ていると全編ものすごく面白いし、学生の笑いが絶えないのに先生の話には実は全くムダが無いことに気づきます。時折テーブルを見下ろして覗いているノートには、精緻な授業進行ともしかしたら台詞まで書かれていたのかもしれません。それほどにこの先生の授業は完璧。この本もおすすめ。

Rock Star 2011/5/4
By Chris Reich - (Amazon.com)
形式:ハードカバー|Amazonが確認した購入
If physics has rock stars, Walter Lewin is one. If physicist rock stars can have groupies, I confess to being one.

As I read the publisher's text about the book, I felt a little blush. Could that refer to me?! Truly, Walter Lewin's online lectures changed MY life. Sounds silly? Well it's true. Not only did I get very interested in a subject I thought out of my grasp, but I continued my education in physics. I "discovered" a lot of application of physics to my business practice. To shorten the story, I use physics in my business and my clients have benefited greatly and my career has blasted off.

Now, the book is like listening to Dr. Lewin talk. For a fan, what could be better? The videos of his lectures might be better but they are very math intense. The book is light on the math. That's good.

I do wish the book had more than than the too brief picture collection about 2/3'ds through. I would like some illustrations to go with the topical discussions. Still, overall, I love the book but that's because I see Dr. Lewin as a sort of virtual mentor. I could never afford MIT or qualify to get in to MIT. Dr. Lein's lectures opened MIT to me.

So a physics fan, and especially a Walter Lewin fan, will love the book. I hope every one of his students will buy two copies (I did)---cherish one and give the other away. Your gift may inspire the next Einstein (male or female).

The only negative? That beautiful Dutch accent, which lends itself to physics, doesn't come through in print.

Great read.

Viewing the World of Physics with Wonderment 2011/6/1
By G. Poirier - (Amazon.com)
形式:ハードカバー
I have very little doubt that any university freshman who has had Professor Lewin for any physics courses will never forget the experience. Why? The book's cover says it all. In the first 69% or so of the book, Professor Lewin discusses basic physics - touching upon various topics such as Newton's Laws, gravity, optics, sound, electricity, etc. The physics is very elementary such that a science buff is not likely to learn anything new here. But the highlight of these discussions is the joy of discovery that they impart to the reader. The author's enthusiasm and amazement for his subject matter is truly exceptional. Throughout, he describes various demonstrations that he's done in class in order to illustrate some particular points - and relishes his students' reactions. He goes out of his way to ensure that the students have fun and will remember what they've seen. Also located in the earlier part of the book is a bit of autobiographical information: mainly Professors Lewin's childhood in his native Holland during World War II and how difficult and horribly tragic life was at that time.

In the next few chapters, comprising about 27% of the book, Professor Lewin discusses his professional life and achievements in x-ray astronomy. This was a treat for me because, once again, his enthusiasm does not cease to grace every page and the details that he provides were mostly new to me. Finally, in the last chapter, he discusses mainly his love for modern art.

Written in clear, very friendly and lively prose, this book should be of particular interest as much to high school students and university freshmen for the clear information that it contains as to the seasoned science buff for the way it is expressed and for the information on the discovery and evolution of x-ray astronomy. If all science classes were taught like Professor Lewin teaches his physics classes, there would probably be more scientists in the world.

The superlative, amazing sharing of knowledge and the beauty of Physics 2011/5/10
By Anne M. Bacchiocchi - (Amazon.com)
形式:ハードカバー
If you have not yet read For The Love Of Physics, I highly recomend that you do so. Please do not miss out on such an opertunity as to own and read this book written by the legendary Walter Lewin.

The book is so wonderfully written, Walter captured my attention from the very firs word and right straight through each chaper and to the end of the book. I loved it so much.

What a fabulous experience and oppertunity to see the world in a new way, and see all the beauty of the Physics behind it. Walter Lewin has proven that Physics does work and makes reading about it so enjoyable.

I have been a fan for several years now,and have seen all his lectures, and I will personally treasure this book, I love it. Walter Lewin really excells in this book, showing his love for Physics and Art, it is a real eye-opener.

I know that you all will enjoy reading For The Love Of Physics, I know I did.

Anne M. Bacchiocchi
