Our lives have benefited immensely from the scientific evolution
over the years. This book provides an overview of the lives of
three great scientists, Newton, Faraday and Einstein, who made the
most significant contributions to physics.Newton and Faraday laid
the foundation of Newtonian mechanics and electro-magnetic theory,
respectively, that constituted the two greatest contributions to
classical physics. Newton elucidated the motion of celestial bodies
with the three laws of motion, while Faraday researched
electro-magnetic phenomena and discovered electro-magnetic
induction, magneto-optical effect, etc.Furthermore, Einstein
contributed to the foundation of quantum mechanics and relativity
theory which comprise the two greatest theories in modern physics.
By elucidating photoelectric effect, Einstein proved the
correctness of the concept of quantum proposed by Planck which
resulted in quantum mechanics being considered as an epoch-making
mechanics following Newtonian mechanics. Einstein renovated the
concept of time-space and derived the Lorentz transformation
supporting relativity principle.This book will take the readers on
a journey to understand the progress from classical physics to
modern physics.
