Book
Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Nobel laureate Erwin Schroedinger was one of the most distinguished scientists of the twentieth century; his lectures on the history and philosophy of science are legendary. 'Nature and the Greeks' and 'Science and Humanism' makes available for the first time in many years the texts of two of Schroedinger's most famous lecture series. 'Nature and the Greeks' offers a comprehensive historical account of the twentieth-century scientific world picture, tracing modern science back to the earliest stages of Western philosophic thought. 'Science and Humanism' addresses some of the most fundamental questions of the century: what is the value of scientific research? And how do the achievements of modern science affect the relationship between material and spiritual matters? A foreword by Roger Penrose sets the lectures in a contemporary context, and affirms they are as relevant today as when they were first published. Nobel laureate Erwin Schroedinger's lectures on the history and philosophy of science are legendary. Here the texts of some of his most famous lectures are made available for the first time in many years. As Roger Penrose's foreword confirms, they are as relevant today as when they were first published. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Book
Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Nobel laureate Erwin Schroedinger's What is Life? is one of the great science classics of the twentieth century. A distinguished physicist's exploration of the question which lies at the heart of biology, it was written for the layman, but proved one of the spurs to the birth of molecular biology and the subsequent discovery of the structure of DNA. The philosopher Karl Popper hailed it as a 'beautiful and important book' by 'a great man to whom I owe a personal debt for many exciting discussions'. It appears here together with Mind and Matter, his essay investigating a relationship which has eluded and puzzled philosophers since the earliest times. Schrodinger asks what place consciousness occupies in the evolution of life, and what part the state of development of the human mind plays in moral questions. Brought together with these two classics are Schroedinger's autobiographical sketches, published and translated here for the first time. They offer a fascinating fragmentary account of his life as a background to his scientific writings, making this volume a valuable additon to the shelves of scientist and layman alike. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Brossura. Condition: ottimo. Volume in 8° (cm15,5 x 22,0), pagg 377, 21 figure n.t. È una silloge delle pubblicazioni dell autore, da lui steso scelte per la traduzione italiana. Ottimo esemplare con foto dell autore e presentazione della sua opera. Fisico austriaco , i suoi primi lavori di fisica teorica riguardarono soprattutto la termodinamica statistica, ma anche la vecchia teoria dei quanti, la teoria della relatività e la teoria della visione dei colori. Ma il cambiamento decisivo alle sue ricerche fu segnato dalla lettura della tesi di dottorato di L. de Broglie, in cui si introduceva il concetto di onde di materia. Schoedinger giunse all'equazione differenziale, oggi universalmente nota come equazione di Schoedinger, che descriveva l'evoluzione della funzione d'onda Ψ, che definiva univocamente lo stato del sistema. Pensatore profondo, allargò i suoi interessi alla biologia e fu affascinato dai paradossi cui la nuova fisica dava luogo. Celebre il paradosso del gatto che era, contemporaneamente, vivo e morto.
