First Edition
Trade Paperback. Condition: Very Good. First Paperback Edition. 192 Pages Indexed. No defects noted. Interior text pages are near flawless. This is a personal selection of over 1200 scientific quotations including graffiti, lines of song and proverbs together with the more recognised forms of quotation not only from scientists but from artists, poets, philosophers, theologians, politicians and other miscellaneous mortals. Scientists have often been reproached for their apparent unfamiliarity with the rest of our cultural inheritance. Inasmuch as science represents one way of dealing with the world, it does tend to separate its practitioners from the rest. Being a scientist resembles membership of a religious order and a scientist usually finds that he has more in common with a colleague on the other side of the world than with his next-door neighbour. Scientists do live in the real world and share in developing and unifying its culture. Many scientists, especially biologists, are able to communicate more widely than to their professional colleagues their sense of wonder at the workings of nature. This collection of quotations is intended to show the wholeness of our culture by demonstrating that scientists contribute to the humanities, and that from Chaucer to Auden, the great humanists have also been concerned with science in all its aspects. A quotation is a polished prefabricated unit of thought or discourse which has many connotations and associations built in to it. Quotations are, in effect, thoughts embedded in memorable phraseology and polished by use.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This book is, in essence, an updated and revised version of an earlier textbook, Newtonian Mechanics, written about fifteen years ago by one of us (APF) and published in 1971. The book has been significantly changed in emphasis as well as length. Our aim has been to produce a mechanics text, suitable for use at beginning university level, for students who have a background typified by the British sixth-form level in physics and mathematics. We hope, however, that the book will also be found useful in the teaching of mechanics at the upper levels of the secondary schools themselves. Calculus is freely used from the outset. In making the present revision we have drastically cut down on the amount of historical and more discursive material. Nevertheless, our goal has been to present classical mechanics as physics, not as applied mathematics. Although we begin at the beginning, we have aimed at developing the basic principles and their applications as rapidly as seemed reasonable, so that by the end of the book students will be able to feel that they have achieved a good working knowledge of the subject and can tackle fairly sophisticated problems. To help with this process, each chapter is followed by a good number of exercises, some of them fairly challenging. We shall be very grateful to receive comments and corrections from those who use this book. 324 pp. Englisch.
