Описание: The difference between cause and effect seems obvious and crucial in ordinary life, yet missing from modern physics. Almost a century ago, Bertrand Russell called the law of causality `a relic of a bygone age`. In this important collection 13 leading scholars revisit Russell`s revolutionary conclusion, discussing one of the most significant and puzzling issues in contemporary thought.

Описание: This volume approaches the philosophy of medicine from the broad naturalist perspective. This holds that philosophy must be continuous with, constrained by, and relevant to empirical results of the natural and social sciences. The upshot is a unique volume that ties medicine to contemporary issues in philosophy of science and metaphysics.
Описание: Instead, reality and negation behave as an equally positive something in respect to one another such that negation is itself a reality that is actively opposed to another reality.

Описание: With contributions from two of the original discoverers of protective measurement, this book investigates its broad applications and deep implications. Addressing both physical and philosophical aspects, this is a valuable resource for graduate students and researchers interested in the conceptual foundations of quantum mechanics.
Описание: A truly Galilean-class volume, this book introduces a new method in theory formation, completing the tools of epistemology. It covers a broad spectrum of theoretical and mathematical physics by researchers from over 20 nations from four continents. Like Vigier himself, the Vigier symposia are noted for addressing avant-garde, cutting-edge topics in contemporary physics. Among the six proceedings honoring J.-P. Vigier, this is perhaps the most exciting one as several important breakthroughs are introduced for the first time. The most interesting breakthrough in view of the recent NIST experimental violations of QED is a continuation of the pioneering work by Vigier on tight bound states in hydrogen. The new experimental protocol described not only promises empirical proof of large-scale extra dimensions in conjunction with avenues for testing string theory, but also implies the birth of the field of unified field mechanics, ushering in a new age of discovery. Work on quantum computing redefines the qubit in a manner that the uncertainty principle may be routinely violated. Other breakthroughs occur in the utility of quaternion algebra in extending our understanding of the nature of the fermionic singularity or point particle. There are several other discoveries of equal magnitude, making this volume a must-have acquisition for the library of any serious forward-looking researchers.
Want to learn about the basics of quantum physics and impress your friends at cocktail parties with some "big brain" trivia about some of history's greatest scientific minds?
Think you could be a theoretical physicist, but you need to brush up on your knowledge of relativity first? Want to carry a book on the subway that will make your fellow passengers think you're totally sophisticated? Great Then Quantum Physics for Beginners is the book for you.
Explore the field of quantum physics from its infancy through its bright future with topics like:
Special and general relativity
The nature of classical physics v. quantum physics
What the heck is a quantum, anyway?
Discovery of the atom and development of atomic models
Early experiments and research that changed the face of science forever
The photoelectric effect
Wave-particle duality
Schr dinger's contributions to physics (and his famous cats )
The life and works of Albert Einstein, including his 1905 'Miracle Year'
The Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle
The Einstein-Bohr debates
Practical applications of quantum physics through the decades
Electromagnetic and gravitational waves
Unified field theory
and much more
Lastly, you'll take a journey through today's practical applications of quantum mechanics, chemistry, and physics to look at the future of clean energy, space travel, and medicine. You'll also be given a peek at the theoretical side of modern quantum physics and learn about the work that scientists are doing to make the impossible possible. Quantum Physics for Beginners will whet your appetite for studying how the world works and jog your brain into thinking about everything around you in a whole new way

Описание: Alan Musgrave has consistently defended two positions that he regards as commonsensical: critical realism and critical rationalism. Rather than a standard celebratory festschrift, this book offers a new examination of topics of current interest in philosophy. The contributory essays are followed by responses from Alan Musgrave himself.
