Description
Product filter button Description Contents Resources Courses About the Authors
* Steven Weinberg shares his candid thoughts, in his own words, on theoretical
physics and cosmology, along with personal anecdotes and recollections of the
people who helped shape his career. These memoirs of his life as a scientist
and public figure cover his student days and early career, through the golden
age of particle physics in the 1970s, his being awarded the Nobel prize,
through to the end of the twentieth century. In addition to his research
insights, Weinberg provides glimpses into his life in academia more broadly:
dealing with the 'two-body problem', tenure, international conference travel,
his book-writing, advisory work with JASON, and his advocacy for the
Superconducting Super Collider. Physicists, historians of science and
interested readers will find the presentation engaging and often witty, as
Weinberg reflects on his life in physics.
*
* Nobel laureate Steven Weinberg reveals his personal thoughts on various
topics in theoretical physics and cosmology and how his work developed at
key points through his career
* Includes candid accounts of his successes and failures, anecdotes of his
interactions with many of the century's most famous scientists, and
glimpses of his life beyond his physics research
* Weinberg's unique story, uniquely told in his inimitable style

* AUTHOR
Steven Weinberg, University of Texas, Austin
Steven Weinberg (1933–2021) held the Josey Regental Chair in Science at the
University of Texas at Austin. A Nobel laureate in physics and National Medal
of Science winner, he is recognized as one of the key architects of the
Standard Model of particle physics. In addition to his ground-breaking
research in fundamental physics and his science advocacy, he was a prolific
author of both academic and popular-level books, widely celebrated for his
exceptional physical insight and his gift for clear exposition.
