His name is synonymous with «genius,» but these essays by the renowned physicist and scholar are accessible to any reader. In addition to outlining the core of relativity theory in everyday language, Albert Einstein presents fascinating discussions of other scientific fields to which he made significant contributions. The Nobel Laureate also profiles some of history's most influential physicists, upon whose studies his own work was based.Assembled during Einstein's lifetime from his speeches and essays, this book marks the first presentation to the wider world of the scientist's accomplishments in the field of abstract physics. Along with relativity theory, these articles examine the methods of theoretical physics, principles of research, and the concept of scientific truth. Einstein's speeches to audiences at Columbia University and the Prussian Academy of Science appear here, along with his insightful observations on such giants of science as Johannes Kepler, Sir Isaac Newton, James Clerk Maxwell, Niels Bohr, Max Planck, and others.

В результате развития науки и технологий во всем мире стала необходимой «интеллектуализация» многих специальностей высшего и среднего профессионального образования (ВПО и СПО), изменились требования, предъявляемые к специалистам. Возникают типичные ситуации, когда работодатель с удовольствием возьмет математика-программиста по специальности «Математическое обеспечение и администрирование информационных систем», но крепко подумает, стоит ли брать техника по специальности «Программное обеспечение вычислительной техники и автоматизированных систем». Дело в том, что техники-программисты и сейчас нужны. Но без понятия компетенции и разработки новых стандартов, в том числе и СПО, трудно определить место специальностей СПО и их взаимодействие с соответствующими направлениями (специальностями) ВПО.

A hilarious and cutting critique of what not to do, this deliciously wicked essay lays out what writers should and must do if they want their fiction to live and breathe ? as Twain's own fiction always does. In "How to Tell a Story," the title piece, Twain takes on such mysteries as the perfectly-timed pause and the uses of the dead-pan mask, and candidly describes his own efforts to hone his platform skills.

Exercises in Loneliness is a collection of philosophical essays on a common topic of solitude that started as a series of blog posts. “There is something romantic and legendary about loneliness because every knight searches for the Holy Grail on his own. Even the best fairytales are born out of an extreme loneliness. So the secret is to stop asking to be saved and to start saving others. Before long you will see how your own loneliness subsides – like a tide that runs away with sunrise”.
