The Physics Of History by David J. Helfand
Requirements: .MP3 reader, 342 MB
Overview: The history of the entire universe and all it contains is written in the particular arrangements of the fundamental particles that constitute all matter. With recent developments in technology, scientists can now use everything they know about atoms—their origins, structure, and behavior—to uncover the truth about historical mysteries in archaeology, chemistry, geology, astronomy, and even art.With this unprecedented access to times far earlier than those recorded by historians, scientists can now explore the rise and fall of preliterate societies, the history of the Earth’s changing climate, and even the origins of the solar system 4.5 billion years ago. Using this knowledge, they can finally develop a comprehensive, stable timeline that encompasses all of history, from the beginning of time to today—all by “reading” the history of a bone, a piece of wood, the mortar in a building, a neutrino from the sun, and more.The Physics of History, taught by award-winning Professor David J. Helfand, gives you the background to understand how scientists know what they do about the past, an astonishing range of cases in which physics has helped to redefine history—in astronomy, archaeology, geology, climatology, art history, and other fields.
