Iedereen weet dat E=mc² een belangrijke formule is, maar bijna niemand weet waarom. De vergelijking oogt zo eenvoudig dat je bijna zou denken dat ze ook gemakkelijk te begrijpen is. In een poging de 'formule van de twintigste eeuw' te verhelderen houdt David Bodanis geen wetenschappelijke verhandeling, maar vertelt hij een aanstekelijk verhaal waarin mensen van vlees en bloed de hoofdrol spelen.
Hij maakt verhelderende uitstapjes naar de kunstgeschiedenis en de psychologie en gaat in op de grote maatschappelijke, politieke en militaire invloed die de formule heeft gehad, van de ontwikkeling van de atoombom tot de fabricage van televisietoestellen.
David Bodanis doceert wis-en natuurkunde aan de universiteit van Oxford. Hij schreef voor onder meer Tribune. Voor zijn boek Het elektrisch universum ontving hij deAventis Prize 2005.
Onlangs verscheen van zijn hand Émilie & Voltaire.''Congto ergo boom,'' schreef Susan Sontag. Deze woordenn passen bij het verhaal van E=mc². Het is niet alleen het verhaal van oorpronkelijke geesten als Maxwell, Einstein en Meinter, maar ook van twee wereldoorlogen, aan wier hypnotiserende krachten zelfs de grooste denkers niet konden ontsnappen.' Vrij Nederland', 'Bodanis is een briliant schrijver, die heldere verklaringen praat aan een anekdotische schrijfstijl, die zowel mensen als formules tot leven wekt.' - Eindhovens Dagblad

Potential Buyers Be Fore-warned
Some how, my 1st review with photos & details of why I WAS rating 3 stars did not get posted. Cannot include those images that showed the condition that I found this product after I opened the shipping material. I found the exterior of the container covered with the cream & more cream was oozed out all around the bottom edge of the lid. I had to take a paper towel & wipe the excess cream product from the exterior of the container, in order to open the jar. When I did, there was more cream smeared all over the foil that was supposed to be sealed, & the grab tab to remove the foil was crimpled up off the rim of the jar with more cream oozed out all over the jar threads (for turning the lid to close the jar shut). I don't know when all of that happened to this item, & I wondered about the integrity & safety of the cream product having received it opened & appearing to have been very much compromised. The only reason that I took the time required to clean this product off was that at least it looked, felt, & smelled like the cream product that I have used before.

amazing quality for the price
Color: Glitter-9oz-60
These 9 oz gold plastic cups were the perfect finishing touch for our elegant shower theme. The hard plastic feels sturdy and high-quality and definitely not the flimsy disposable kind you might expect at this price point. The gold glitter finish added just the right amount of sparkle and sophistication to our décor.

Cute and elevated
Color: 10-Gold-100
These are really cute and really elevate our client experience at a minimal investment. We offer a complimentary glass of champagne to our clients and we use these as an addition to serve juice, soda or water. They are durable and pretty think, much better than using a thinner red solo cup and the gold addition the cups really makes them look expensive.

Great cups for any occassion!
Color: 9-Silver-200
These cups worked great for the rehearsal brunch and we were able to use the rest at one of the beverage stations at the reception. They were very good quality and the silver ring around the top added extra sparkle. Highly recommend!

Great Quality and Elegant Look!
Color: 9-Silver-100
I ordered these 9 oz silver-trimmed plastic cups for a dinner gathering , and they turned out perfect. The silver rim gives them an upscale, classy look great for parties or more formal events like weddings. They’re sturdy and don’t feel flimsy at all, even when filled with ice and drinks. Guests complimented them several times, thinking they were real glass! Cleanup was easy since they’re disposable, but honestly, they’re durable enough to rinse and reuse if you want. Highly recommend for anyone looking to elevate their party setup without spending a lot.
