Book
Paperback. Condition: Good. Dealing with the fundamental scientific question, What is the world made of?, Leon Lederman, who shared the physics Nobel Prize in 1988, tells the story of the 2500-year quest for its answer, taking the reader on a journey from the philosophies of the ancient Greeks to the astonishing scientific discoveries of the last 50 years. It was a Greek philosopher in the 5th century BC who guessed that an invisible particle might be the basic building-block of all matter. He called it an atom - that which cannot be cut. The past five decades have brought the development of the most complex experimental tool ever built, the particle accelerator, which cuts matter into quarks and leptons, and reveals the forces that drive them. Lederman believes we may be close to discovering the ultimate atom - the god particle - which orchestrates the cosmic symphony, and that its discovery may reduce the laws of physics to an equation so simple that it can fit onto a T-shirt. The book has been read but remains in clean condition. All pages are intact and the cover is intact. Some minor wear to the spine.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. This is a lucid and informative book that makes the seemingly daunting subject of quantum physics accessible, appealing, and exciting. Quantum theory is the bedrock of contemporary physics - it informs our understanding of everything from matter in its smallest dimensions to the universe as a whole. But for many, quantum theory remains an impenetrable enigma. Drawing on the unrivalled expertise of a Nobel Laureate and theoretical physicist, "Quantum Physics for Poets" is a lucid and informative volume that makes this often daunting subject accessible, appealing, and exciting. Exploring every aspect of quantum physics - from the first experiments, through the strange behaviour of 'particles' that can be in many places at once, to the latest developments, including quantum string theory - this book renders even the most profound reaches of quantum theory understandable. In this lucid, informative book, designed for the curious, a Nobel Prize laureate and a theoretical physicist make the seemingly daunting subject of quantum physics accessible, appealing, and exciting. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

. . . 1 Vol. . 384 pp. Cuarto Mayor. Rústica. . Buen estado de conservación. En todas las culturas, simetría y belleza parecen consustanciales. Reconocer y contemplar formas y estructuras simétricas (desde un copo de nieve a una fuga de Bach o una catedral gótica) es una fuente de placer que comenzamos a descubrir desde la infancia. Además, tal y como nos muestran con claridad los autores de este fascinante libro dos reputados físicos de prestigio internacional , la simetría gobierna también las leyes fundamentales de la física y constituye un principio matemático básico para comprender la estructura del universo: desde los elementos más recónditos de la materia hasta la infinitud de los espacios cósmicos.Partiendo de la fría definición científica de simetría «la invariancia de un objeto o sistema frente a una transformación» , Lederman y Hill ponen ante nuestros ojos, de una forma tan accesible como rigurosa, los múltiples aspectos relacionados con este concepto y sus ramificaciones en torno a la teoría de las supercuerdas, la mecánica cuántica, la teoría de la relatividad, el Big Bang o la ley de la conservación de la energía.
