Scotland After the Ice Age: Environment, Archaeology and History 8000 BC - Ad 1000
ISBN: 9780748617364 / Angielski / Miękka / 2003 / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This book charts the environmental transformation of Scotland from the end of the ice age in an empty land 10,000 years ago to the Viking invasions of an established society 9,000 years later. When the icefields and glaciers disappeared forests covered the land and sea level rose to create the Hebridean islands. Elk, aurochs, bear, boar, red deer, beaver and horse crossed the land bridge from Europe to colonise the land, first followed by hunter gatherers and later by waves of Celts, Romans, Scots, and Normans, each marking the landscape in distinctive ways. This book brings together...

Gravitation and Gauge Symmetries
ISBN: 9780750307673 / Angielski / Miękka / 2001 / 536 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In the course of the development of electromagnetic, weak and strong interactions, the concept of (internal) gauge invariance grew up and established itself as an unavoidable dynamical principle in particle physics. It is less known that the principle of equivalence, and the basic dynamical properties of the gravitational interaction can also be expressed as a (spacetime) gauge symmetry.
Gravitation and Gauge Symmetries sheds light on the connection between the intrinsic structure of gravity and the principle of gauge invariance, which may lead to a consistent unified field theory. The... In the course of the development of electromagnetic, weak and strong interactions, the concept of (internal) gauge invariance grew up and established ...

Gravity and Quantum Non-Linearity
ISBN: 9780755201440 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 156 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. For many years Maxwell's equations were mute testimony to the Lorentz coordinate transformations of special relativity, but the significance of this transformation was not fully understood until relativity itself had been discovered. The author of this book claims that an oversight has once again occurred in fundamental physics. A direct link between Quantum Mechanics and Gravity - perhaps the biggest scientific enigma of all time - has been overlooked. In an entirely novel approach to Quantum-Gravity, this book suggests that Gravity is the manifestation of a very weak non-linearity in...
