Taking the Quantum Leap (el. knyga) (skaityta knyga) | Fred A. Wolf | knygos.lt

Aprašymas

World renowned physicist Fred Alan Wolf explains the scientific concepts of quantum mechanics in accessible language for nonscientists.
Winner of the National Book Award
Taking the Quantum Leap entertainingly traces the history of physics from the observations of the early Greeks through the discoveries of Galileo and Newton to the dazzling theories of such scientists as Planck, Einstein, Bohr, and Bohm. This humanized view of science opens up the mind-stretching visions of how quantum mechanics, God, human thought, and will are related, and provides profound implications for our understanding of the nature of reality and our relationship to the cosmos.
"The prose, indeed, is exhilarating, and exhibits a passion to explain-humorously ... Wolf provides commendable explanations of visions and revisions of atomic models; he is fin, in particular, on the Uncertainty Principle ... Enjoy the book for its bravura." - Kirkus Reviews
