Das magische Leuchten – über die Elektrifizierung der Welt und die erste Energiewende


Im Jahr 1878 sind sich die führenden Ingenieure der Kaiserzeit einig: Niemals wird Elektrizität das Gaslicht verdrängen. Strombetriebene Lampen seien unpraktisch und schadeten der Gesundheit. Leuchtgas werde unentbehrlich bleiben, meint etwa der Ingenieur Werner Siemens.

Dieses Licht hat der Menschheit aber auch eine Bedrohung beschert: Immer mehr Gasbrände verzeichnet die Statistik, immer mehr Explosionen. Und nirgendwo ist die Gefahr größer als in den Theatern, den Zentren des Zeitgeists im 19. Jahrhundert. Doch das Risiko ist zur Routine geworden – bis es 1881 im Wiener Ringtheater zur Katastrophe kommt und fast 400 Menschen sterben. Ein Wendepunkt mit weitreichenden Folgen.

Mit Verve und erhellender Sachkenntnis erzählt Alexander Bartl von einer Energierevolution, die ganz Europa und Amerika in Aufregung versetzte. Letztlich triumphiert Thomas Alva Edison mit der Erfindung seiner Glühbirne und bringt unsere Welt zum Leuchten.

Good buy
Second time purchasing a variant of this item. Of good quality, no accessories were missing, material is very good, true to colour and does not fade easily, fit exact, hence size up if needed.

Perfect for my son!
Color: Purple, Size: 7 Years, Color: Purple, Size: 7 Years
Loved that the pants were adjustable and it fit my son perfectly and was shipped fast for Halloween! This was cheaper than a Halloween costume but the quality was 10x better than any bulk Halloween costume store ! We did a DIY joker & I absolutely loved how it turned out ! Definitely could use this for a formal event !

Great 4 piece for a wedding!
Color: Black, Size: 12 Years
My so. Is 10 years old but super skinny and super tall. The pants had an adjustable waist which was perfect for me to adjust to his skinny waist. The length was perfect. The material was great and it was well made. The tie was super easy to put on and the vest has an adjustable band on the back. This was perfect for a wedding he was attending. He looked so handsome! Great price too.

Great suit order well ahead in case need resizing
It great! My son loves suitz , the only reason I took a star is because the pants were past his ankle very short so we ended up have to use other pants. The shirt and vest fitted perfectly!
