About this listen

Book One in the best-selling 'Uncle Albert' science/adventure series. Famous scientist Uncle Albert and his niece Gedanken enter the dangerous and unknown world of a thought bubble. Their mission: to unlock the deep mysteries of time and space... In this action-packed adventure story, discover why you can't break the ultimate speed barrier and find out how to become older than your mother, how to put on weight without getting fat, and how to live forever without even knowing it.

Russell Stannard is Emeritus Professor of Physics at the Open University. He has travelled widely in Europe and the USA, researching high-energy nuclear physics. He has received the Templeton UK project award and spent a year in America as a visiting fellow at the Center of Theological Theory, Princeton. He was awarded an OBE for services to physics and the popularisation of science. The Time and Space of Uncle Albert was shortlisted for both the Science Award and the Whitbread Award, and his books have been translated into 17 different languages.

I have a collection of the Russell Stannard quantum physics hard copies. It took me places as a young man always wondering what an unforgettable journey it would be for school kids. It would not only be a great contribution to physics education for children but also an important, adventurous experience, opening their minds to that offered by these excellent books.
I will with a flash without hesitation get all of his books as audiobooks when-and if they become available. Matt C
