Errata and clarifications.

I try to be as accurate as possible in my videos, but I'm human and I certainly don't know everything, so sometimes there are mistakes. Additionally, due to the nature of my videos, there are bound to be some oversimplifications. Some of these are intentional because I don't have time to go into detail, but sometimes they are unintentional and this is where I clarify them.

1. “Isaac Newton invented calculus. » In fact, there is controversy over who invented calculus first, Isaac Newton or Gottfried Leibniz. Regardless of who it was, I used Leibniz's mathematical notation here and so he certainly deserves credit. I didn't know all of this so thanks to those who pointed it out. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leibniz%E2%80%93Newton_calculus_controversy
2. “Maxwell derived the laws of electromagnetism.” This is a simplification because Maxwell's work was built on the backs of other scientists like Hans Christian Ørsted, André-Marie Ampère and Michael Faraday who discovered induction and saw that electricity and magnetism were part of the same thing. But it was Maxwell who worked out all the calculations and brought electricity and magnetism together into a unified theory. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetism#History_of_the_theory
3. “Entropy is a measure of order and disorder.” This is also a simplification and helps explain it better https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Entropy
4. Einstein and Quantum Physics: I've made it sound like quantum physics was constructed by people other than Einstein, but that couldn't be further from the truth. Einstein received a Nobel Prize for his work on the photoelectric effect, a key result in showing the particle nature of light. Oddly enough, he never received a Nobel Prize for his work on Relativity!

Also, if you enjoyed this video, you will probably like my scientific books, available in all good bookstores around the area and printed in 16 languages. The links are below or just search for Professor Astro Cat. These are fun children's books aimed at the age range of 7 to 12 years old. But they also appeal to adults who want good scientific explanations. The books won awards and the app won a Webby.
