1924–1927: Der Frühling der Quantenmechanik
by Hans-Hennig von GrünbergSeines Heuschnupfens wegen verbrachte Werner Heisenberg im Juni 1925, vor nun bald hundert Jahren, zehn Tage auf der Insel Helgoland, wo er einen Artikel schrieb, der als der Beginn der Geschichte der modernen Quantentheorie angesehen werden kann. Im Oktober 1927 fand die fünfte Solvay-Konferenz in Brüssel statt, die wohl berühmteste Konferenz in der Geschichte der Physik, und brachte die spannende Entstehungsgeschichte der Quantenmechanik zu ihrem vorläufigen Ende. In diesen Jahren zwischen 1925 und 1927 entwickelten acht Physiker aus fünf Ländern eine Theorie, die das physikalische Verständnis unserer Welt radikal verändert sollte. Mit diesem Buch wandert man vom September 1924 bis zum Oktober 1927 durch die Zeit und erfährt dabei in Form von Monatsberichten, wie die Quantenmechanik entstanden ist, was die handelnden Personen erlebt und gedacht, in welcher Zeit sie gelebt haben und wie aus dem Zusammenspiel Einzelner langsam das gemeinsame Ganze entstanden ist. Das Buch wendet sich an Laien, die sich von der Quantenmechanik faszinieren lassen wollen und dabei verstehen werden, dass diese Theorie wie Anita Berber, der Jazz oder die Erfindung des Fernsehens ein typisches Kind der 1920er Jahre ist.

42 Reasons to Hate the Universe: (And One Reason Not To)
by Chris Ferrie Wade David Fairclough Byrne LaGinestraIf you've always suspected the universe was out to get you… you were right!Yes, the universe we live in is cosmically beautiful and mysterious and all that crap. But it's also a bit of an asshole. After all, remember that you are just a group of atoms structured in a specific way for barely long enough to try to understand this thing we call existence. Those atoms could just have easily been used to make the dog shit you're cleaning off your shoe or the mold that grows on your bread! The fact is, when you zoom out to look at the universe and how it functions, you'll see that it's usually not in our favor, and many of the laws of physics are actively working against our survival. In this book, you'll discover why:You're an aging mutantInvisible rays are melting our genetic codeThe Earth is covered in explosive pimplesLiterally everything is poisonousAnd more true and terrifying scientific facts!But don't worry! While it's true that there are (at least) forty-two grudges to hold against the universe, the good news is that there is also one very good reason to forgive them all and embrace the wild, improbable fact that we are alive (for now) and we should take advantage of it while we can. 42 Reasons to Hate the Universe (And One Reason Not To) is a hilarious, no-holds-barred exploration of all the reasons we shouldn't exist—but somehow do anyway. Rooted in scientific research but written simply so that evolved apes such as ourselves can understand where the heck we came from and where we're likely going, this book is for all the nerds and nihilists who know they're going down in the end but want to enjoy the rollercoaster ride of existence on the way.
