    Many erros, it seems
  

*by D***D on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on February 20, 2022*

I haven't read the entire book yet. But just in selecting a few pages, I've already detected simple errors that should not occur. Fig. I-1 is clearly in error and when I have the time I'll sort it out completely. And on page 139, the equation for the "resistance of wire" is wrong. The resistance of a wire is proportional to the length of the wire and inversely proportional to the cross-sectional area. I'll sort this out later to find out what is really meant.  This is distressing since I've glanced  at only a few pages yet already found two errors. I hope to do better as I read the entire text.

    Knitting together great ingenuity unveiling nature's workings
  

*by R***S on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on June 21, 2019*

We are in 1959, Gamow is introducing us to some of the greatest REBELS civilization managed to build and deploy. Let us look again at the title: from Galileo (1564-1642) to Einstein (1879-1955). This is a vast range of ingenuity and competence challenging the state-of-the-art by thinking about nature freely. But this book starts with the inquisition making Galileo confirm that our planet does not move and it is the center of the universe. From there, this book becomes a thrilling adventure unveiling nature. The team includes Kepler, Fraunhofer, Faraday, Hertz, Maxwell, Lorentz, Michelson-Morley, Bohr, Heisenberg, Plank, ... and Dirac.  Gamow is great knitting great people together. And his goal is to motivate YOU to join them.

    About geniuses by a genius
  

*by A***G on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on January 16, 2018*

We live in the early stages of the big bang of scientific knowledge, and this book is an account of that big bang itself. Now, many people can tell stories, but rare is the combination of a master storyteller with a world-class physicist. Gamow is such a rarity. Known sometimes as the ordinary genius (see book: Ordinary Geniuses) he interacted with the extraordinary geniuses of his time, but more importantly he had the intellectual capacity to understand those extraordinary geniuses whose stories he tells in this book.
