Η Δημιουργία – Ένα γοητευτικό ταξίδι στο χώρο της επιστήμης από τα κουάρκ ως την αυτογνωσία book pdf download By Peter William Atkins

Η «Δημιουργία» αποτελεί μια αυστηρά επιστημονική και συνάμα ποιητική παρουσίαση της σύγχρονης ερμηνείας της φύσης από την πλευρά των φυσικών επιστημών. Μας αποκαλύπτει ότι πίσω από την εμφανή πολυπλοκότητα της ύπαρξης κρύβεται μια εκπληκτικά απλή βασική δομή. Μας εξηγεί πως αυτή η απλή δομή έχει εκδηλώσεις τόσο πλούσιες όσο ο άνθρωπος και το σύμπαν, η συνείδηση και η ελεύθερη βούληση, και μας δείχνει πώς η δημιουργία όλων αυτών ερμηνεύεται χωρίς την ανάγκη να επικαλεστούμε την ιδέα ενός Υπέρτατου Όντος σε καμία από τις πολυάριθμες εκδηλώσεις του. Το μόνο που χρειάζεται ο αναγνώστης είναι ένα αίσθημα περιπέτειας για να ξεκινήσει το νοητικό ταξίδι προς την ανακάλυψη της έσχατης φύσης του Σύμπαντος και του τρόπου με τον οποίο δημιουργήθηκε.

On Being: A Scientist’s Exploration of the Great Questions of Existence book pdf download By Peter William Atkins

Peter Atkins is the shining exception to the rule that scientists make poor writers. A Fellow at Oxford and a leading chemist, he has won admiration for his precise, lucid, and yet rigorous explanations of science. Now he turns to the greatest–and most controversial–questions of human existence. Can the scientific method tell us anything of value about birth, death, the origin of reality–and its end? Are these questions best left to faith?In On Being, Atkins makes a provocative contribution to the great debate between religion and science. Atkins makes his position clear from the very first sentence: “The scientific method can shed light on every and any concept, even those that have troubled humans since the earliest stirrings of consciousness,” he writes. He takes a materialist approach to the great questions of being that have inspired myth and religion, seeking to “dispel their mystery without diminishing their grandeur.” In placing scientific knowledge in such cosmic perspective, he takes us on an often dizzying tour of existence. For example, he argues that “the substrate of existence is nothing at all.” The total electrical charge of the universe, among other things, must be nothing–zero–he writes, or else the universe would have blasted itself apart. “Charge was not created at the creation: electrical Nothing separated into equal and opposite charges.” He explores breathtaking questions–asking the purpose of the universe–with wit and learning, touching on Sanskrit scriptures and John Updike along the way.”If absolutely and unreservedly everything is an aspect of the physical, material world, then I do not see how it can be closed to scientific investigation,” Atkins writes. “The scientific method is the only means of discovering the nature of reality.”

Conjuring the Universe: The Origins of the Laws of Nature book pdf download By Peter William Atkins

The marvellous complexity of the Universe emerges from several deep laws and a handful of fundamental constants that fix its shape, scale, and destiny. There is a deep structure to the world which at the same time is simple, elegant, and beautiful. Where did these laws and these constants come from? And why are the laws so fruitful when written in the language of mathematics? Peter Atkins considers the minimum effort needed to equip the Universe with its laws and its constants. He explores the origin of the conservation of energy, of electromagnetism, of classical and quantum mechanics, and of thermodynamics, showing how all these laws spring from deep symmetries. The revolutionary result is a short but immensely rich weaving together of the fundamental ideas of physics. With his characteristic wit, erudition, and economy, Atkins sketches out how the laws of Nature can spring from very little. Or arguably from nothing at all.

Las cuatro leyes del Universo book pdf download By Peter William Atkins

Desde la expansión súbita de una nube de gas o el enfriamiento de un metal caliente hasta el desarrollo de un pensamiento en nuestras mentes, e incluso el transcurso de la vida misma; todo está gobernado por las cuatro Leyes de la Termodinámica. Leyes que especifican la naturaleza (le la «energía» y la «temperatura» y que pronto se revelan capaces de alcanzar la flecha del tiempo mismo: por qué cambian las cosas y por qué debe llegar la muerte. En sucintos capítulos individuales, Peter Atkins explica la base de cada ley y sus implicaciones profundas, haciendo explícitas su precisión, claridad y belleza. Utilizando las matemáticas mínimas, guía al lector a través de conceptos tales como entropía, energía libre, hasta el mismo cero absoluto de temperatura y más allá de él. Pero estas no son lan solo ideas abstractas: gobiernan nuestras vidas. El aumento imparable de la entropía explica por qué ¡nuestros escritorios tienden a desordenarse y por qué el Universo deberá desaparecer algún día, un resultado de la Segunda Ley, sobre la que C. P. Snow sostuvo, con acierto, que debería resultar tan familiar para cualquier persona culta como las obras de Shakespeare. En esta introducción concisa y convincente, Atkins utiliza un enfoque directo y a veces novedoso sobre este toma central en la ciencia, y pinta un cuadro lúcido de las elegantes cuatro leyes que, al unísono, rigen el Universo.

He was awarded the OBE for ‘contributions to physics, the Open University, and the popularisation of science’ (1998) and the Bragg Medal and Prize of the Institute of Physics for ‘distinguished contributions to the teaching of physics’ (1999).

Relativity: A Very Short Introduction book pdf download By Russell Stannard

If you move at high speed, time slows down, space squashes up and you get heavier. Travel fast enough and you could weigh as much as a jumbo jet, be flattened thinner than a CD without feeling a thing-and live forever! As for the angles of a triangle, they do not always have to add up to 180 degrees. And then, of course, there are black holes. These are but a few of the extraordinary consequences of Einstein’s theory of relativity. It is now over a hundred years since he made these discoveries, and yet the general public is still largely unaware of them. Filled with illuminating anecdotes and fascinating accounts of experiments, this book aims to introduce the interested lay person to the subject of relativity in a way which is accessible and engaging and at the same time scientifically rigorous. With relatively few mathematical equations–nothing more complicated than the Pythagoras’s Theorem–this VSI packs a lot time into very little space, and for anyone who has felt intimidated by Einstein’s groundbreaking theory, it offers the perfect place to start.

Quantum Theory: A Very Short Introduction book pdf download By John Polkinghorne

Quantum Theory is the most revolutionary discovery in physics since Newton. This book gives a lucid, exciting, and accessible account of the surprising and counterintuitive ideas that shape our understanding of the sub-atomic world. It does not disguise the problems of interpretation that still remain unsettled 75 years after the initial discoveries. The main text makes no use of equations, but there is a Mathematical Appendix for those desiring stronger fare. Uncertainty, probabilistic physics, complementarity, the problematic character of measurement, and decoherence are among the many topics discussed. This volume offers the reader access to one of the greatest discoveries in the history of physics and one of the oustanding intellectual achievements of the twentieth century.

Quantum Physics and Theology: An Unexpected Kinship book pdf download By John Polkinghorne

Despite the differences of their subject matter, science and theology have a cousinly relationship, John Polkinghorne contends in his latest thought-provoking book. From his unique perspective as both theoretical physicist and Anglican priest, Polkinghorne considers aspects of quantum physics and theology and demonstrates that the two truth-seeking enterprises are engaged in analogous rational techniques of inquiry. His exploration of the deep connections between science and Christology shows with new clarity a common kinship in the search for truth. Among the many parallels he identifies are patterns of historical development in quantum physics and in Christology; wrestling with perplexities such as quantum interpretation and the problem of evil; and the drive for an overarching view in the Grand Unified Theories of physics and in Trinitarian theology. Both theology and science are propelled by a desire to understand the world through experienced reality, and Polkinghorne explains that their viewpoints are by no means mutually exclusive.
