Einstein y la teoría de la relatividad: El manga
Hay científicos que, pese a realizar contribuciones fundamentales, apenas obtienen reconocimiento fuera de su ámbito académico. Otros adquieren fama a través de libros y programas de divulgación científica. Pero muy pocos, como Albert Einstein, han pasado a formar parte de la iconografía popular. Einstein transformó nuestra comprensión del tiempo, el espacio y la gravedad, y fue elegido personaje del siglo XX por la revista Time.
La teoría de la relatividad constituye uno de los avances científicos más importantes de la historia. Con ella, Einstein puso de manifiesto que el tiempo no es absoluto, sino que transcurre a velocidades distintas dependiendo del observador y que la gravedad no es una fuerza sino una deformación del espacio tiempo.

About the author
Albert Einstein
959 books9,693 followersSpecial and general theories of relativity of German-born American theoretical physicist Albert Einstein revolutionized modern thought on the nature of space and time and formed a base for the exploitation of atomic energy; he won a Nobel Prize of 1921 for his explanation of the photoelectric effect.
His paper of 1905 formed the basis of electronics. His first paper, also published in 1905, changed the world.
He completed his Philosophiae Doctor at the University of Zurich before 1909.
Einstein, a pacifist during World War I, stayed a firm proponent of social justice and responsibility.
Einstein thought that Newtonion mechanics no longer enough reconciled the laws of classical mechanics with those of the electromagnetic field. This thought led to the development. He recognized, however, that he ably also extended the principle to gravitational fields and with his subsequent theory of gravitation in 1916 published a paper. He continued to deal with problems of statistical mechanics and quantum theory, which led to his explanations of particle theory and the motion of molecules. He also investigated the thermal properties of light, which laid the foundation of the photon.
Best known for his mass–energy equivalence formula E = mc2, dubbed "the world's most famous equation," he received "for his services to theoretical physics, and especially for his discovery of the law of the photoelectric effect". The latter was pivotal in establishing quantum theory.
He visited the United States when Adolf Hitler came to power in 1933 and went not back to Germany. On the eve of World War II, he endorsed a letter, alerting Franklin Delano Roosevelt, president, to the potential development of "extremely powerful bombs of a new type" and recommending that the United States begin similar research. This recommendation eventually led to the Manhattan project. Einstein supported defending the Allied forces but largely denounced the idea of using the newly discovered nuclear fission as a weapon. Later, with Bertrand Russell–Einstein manifesto highlighted the danger of nuclear weapons.
After the rise of the Nazi party, Einstein made Princeton his permanent home as a citizen of United States in 1940. He chaired the emergency committee of atomic scientists, which organized to alert the public to the dangers of warfare.
At a symposium, he advised:
("Science, Philosophy and Religion, A Symposium," published by the Conference on Science, Philosophy and Religion in their Relation to the Democratic Way of Life, Inc., New York, 1941).
In a letter to philosopher Eric Gutkind, dated 3 January 1954, Einstein stated:
(The Guardian, "Childish superstition: Einstein's letter makes view of religion relatively clear," by James Randerson, May 13, 2008)
Great intellectual achievements and originality made the word "Einstein" synonymous with genius.
The institute for advanced study in Princeton, New Jersey, affiliated Einstein until his death in 1955.

At a symposium, he advised:
"In their struggle for the ethical good, teachers of religion must have the stature to give up the doctrine of a personal God, that is, give up that source of fear and hope which in the past placed such vast power in the hands of priests. In their labors they will have to avail themselves of those forces which are capable of cultivating the Good, the True, and the Beautiful in humanity itself. This is, to be sure a more difficult but an incomparably more worthy task... "

In a letter to philosopher Eric Gutkind, dated 3 January 1954, Einstein stated:
"The word god is for me nothing more than the expression and product of human weaknesses, the Bible a collection of honorable, but still primitive legends which are nevertheless pretty childish. No interpretation no matter how subtle can (for me) change this."

Para mi gusto, una oportunidad desaprovechada. Se pierde buena parte del cómic en teorías anteriores que aportan bastante poco —además, ridiculizando a los autores y sin seguir un hilo mínimamente coherente—, y cuando llega Einstein en la segunda mitad ya van a toda prisa, mezclando un estilo sencillo con saltos y piruetas incomprensibles y conceptos no aclarados, hasta el punto de que no sabes si te están tratando como a un experto o como a un idiota. A mí me ha servido de poco.

Estuvo interesante, en especial la primera parte donde contextualizan los avancen en las teorías científicas y su evolución en el tiempo, pero la parte de Einstein fue corta, rápida y muy confusa, además de que se debió de profundizar en los impactos de la misma en la humanidad, que aplicación ha tenido, etc, fue lo primero que el presentador hablo con Einstein y en eso no se profundizó, quede un poco decepcionada la verdad ya que la primera parte hasta Newton estuvo magnífica.

Propone un enfoque histórico integral, del desarrollo de las principales ideas que fueron conformando la ciencia de la Física y la astronomía. Desde los griegos hasta Einstein.
A pesar de que el contenido está plateado de manera muy didáctica, me cuesta mucho digerir estos temas.
Además de que el contenido teórico es muy bueno, el diseño visual es excelente. Muy entretenido el libro.

Este manga simplifica y da a entender tan bien la teoría y como llego a ella, no solo por cómo la descubrió sino que reconociendo a sus antepasados y sus teorías, un libro buenísimo

Errático e inconsistente.
