February 2021Albert Einsteins Relativitätstheorie
Von Carl Wilkinson | Ganzseitige, prächtige Illustrationen in Großformat | Physik verständlich erklärt für Kinder ab 9 Jahre
by Carl Wilkinson, James Weston Lewis, Ebi Naumann
Albert Einstein hat nicht nur die berühmteste Gleichung der Welt erfunden: E = mc2. Er hat auch einige erstaunliche Phänomene rund um Zeit, Raum, Licht und Relativität entdeckt. Dazu gehört, dass Astronauten im Weltraum langsamer altern als Menschen auf der Erde (das berühmte Zwillingsparadoxon). Oder, dass feste Gegenstände bei hoher Geschwindigkeit ihre Form verändern. Dazu verhalf ihm seine Fähigkeit, Autoritäten und allgemein anerkannte Lehrmeinungen der Wissenschaft in Frage zu stellen. »Autoritätsdusel ist der größte Feind der Wahrheit«, schrieb er einmal. Einstein dachte visuell und überlegte sich lustige Experimente. Mit anschaulichen, großformatigen Bildern und verständlichen Erklärungen führt dieses Buch ein in Einsteins faszinierende Gedankenwelt und Entdeckungen, die bis in die heutige Zeit fortwirken: Kernspaltung, Schwerefeld, Ereignishorizont, Higgs-Boson und schwarze Löcher erforschen wir heute auf der Grundlage von Einsteins Erkenntnissen. Er hat die Welt für immer verändert.

March 2014Flügelwechsel
Fußball-Oden
by Albert Ostermaier, Florian Süssmayr
Als »Expressionist« unter den zeitgenössischen Dichtern ist es nicht erstaunlich, wenn Albert Ostermaier sich der Sportart zuwendet, die an die Emotionen vieler Menschen rührt, dem Fußball. Als »klassischen« unter den zeitgenössischen Dichtern versteht es sich von selbst, dass er die strenge Form variiert: die Ode. Bekannt geworden ist vor allem Albert Ostermaiers Ode an den »Titan«, den Torhüter Oliver Kahn: »wenn er beim eckball wie ein blonde katze aus dem tor stürmt auf einer welle der begeisterung durch die blauen lüfte fliegt«. Die Weltmeisterschaft bildet den Anlass, um eine Auswahl seiner Fußball-Gedichte zu veröffentlichen – illustriert von dem Fußball-Narr Florian Süßmayr.
