Explore the frontiers of modern physics in ‘Is Einstein Still Right?’ by Clifford M. Will and Nicolás Yunes. This captivating book from The Bookish Owl delves into the ongoing quest to verify Einstein’s theory of general relativity, his most celebrated creation. Discover how groundbreaking experiments, including the detection of gravitational waves, are rigorously testing the limits of Einstein’s genius. While general relativity has long passed empirical scrutiny, its conflict with quantum mechanics and the mysteries of dark matter and dark energy suggest potential incompleteness. Journey with scientists as they probe extreme cosmic phenomena like black hole collisions and neutron star explosions, pushing the boundaries of our understanding. This essential read for science enthusiasts celebrates a century of scientific inquiry and the relentless pursuit of cosmic truth.
