À propos de cet audio
Hey, you, all lovers of science and technology, this richly illustrated book is for you, no matter what age and what level of understanding of physics you have. This is a combination of humour and scientific insight at its best. The author, Lyndon N. Smith, a highly-acclaimed British academic, explains in a unique, provocative, and accessible way the past and present approaches of scientific endeavour and invites you to a discussion about the fascinating technological developments that we may expect to see in the future.
This is popular science with a twist - both entertaining and educational! You will be taken on a journey touching on more conventional topics such as transport, robotics and manufacturing to the more exciting ones such as artificial intelligence, nanotechnology and rocketry. The author discusses the effects we may expect such advanced technologies to have on our lives, including the prospects for extending life and achieving interstellar travel, with all their astonishing implications. Physics students, academics or laymen, be ready to be entertained!
This information-packed book has now been released as an audiobook with a reading by the author, so now you can literally hear about the future of science and technology while in the car, at home or anywhere else you please - apart from, currently, Mars! The audiobook is accompanied by a pdf file that contains a large number of drawings and illustrations, which were created by the author for the book.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.
