Logos and Alogon: Thinkable and the Unthinkable in Mathematics, from the Pythagoreans to the Moderns
ISBN: 9783031136771 / Angielski / Twarda / 2023 / 329 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. This book is a philosophical study of mathematics, pursued by considering and relating two aspects of mathematical thinking and practice, especially in modern mathematics, which, having emerged around 1800, consolidated around 1900 and extends to our own time, while also tracing both aspects to earlier periods, beginning with the ancient Greek mathematics. The first aspect is conceptual, which characterizes mathematics as the invention of and working with concepts, rather than only by its logical nature. The second, Pythagorean, aspect is grounded, first, in the interplay of geometry and...

Reading Bohr: Physics and Philosophy
ISBN: 9789048173235 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 229 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. Reading Bohr: Physics and Philosophy offers a new perspective on Niels Bohr's interpretation of quantum mechanics as complementarity, and on the relationships between physics and philosophy in Bohr's work, which has had momentous significance for our understanding of quantum theory and of the nature of knowledge in general. Philosophically, the book reassesses Bohr's place in the Western philosophical tradition, from Kant and Hegel on. Physically, it reconsiders the main issues at stake in the Bohr-Einstein confrontation and in the ongoing debates concerning quantum physics. It...

Reality Without Realism: Matter, Thought, and Technology in Quantum Physics
ISBN: 9783030845803 / Angielski / Miękka / 2022 / 331 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. This book presents quantum theory as a theory based on new relationships among matter, thought, and experimental technology, as against those previously found in physics, relationships that also redefine those between mathematics and physics in quantum theory. The argument of the book is based on its title concept, reality without realism (RWR), and in the corresponding view, the RWR view, of quantum theory. The book considers, from this perspective, the thinking of Bohr, Heisenberg, Schrödinger, and Dirac, with the aim of bringing together the philosophy and history of quantum theory. With...

The Principles of Quantum Theory, from Planck's Quanta to the Higgs Boson: The Nature of Quantum Reality and the Spirit of Copenhagen
ISBN: 9783319320663 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 313 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. The book considers foundational thinking in quantum theory, focusing on the role the fundamental principles and principle thinking there, including thinking that leads to the invention of new principles, which is, the book contends, one of the ultimate achievements of theoretical thinking in physics and beyond.

Epistemology and Probability: Bohr, Heisenberg, Schrödinger, and the Nature of Quantum-Theoretical Thinking
ISBN: 9780387853338 / Angielski / Twarda / 2009 / 402 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. This book offers an exploration of the relationships between epistemology and probability in the work of Niels Bohr, Werner Heisenberg, and Erwin Schro- ] dinger, and in quantum mechanics and in modern physics as a whole. It also considers the implications of these relationships and of quantum theory itself for our understanding of the nature of human thinking and knowledge in general, or the epistemological lesson of quantum mechanics, as Bohr liked 1 to say. These implications are radical and controversial. While they have been seen as scientifically productive and intellectually liberating...

Niels Bohr and Complementarity: An Introduction
ISBN: 9781461445166 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 199 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. This book offers a discussion of Niels Bohr's conception of "complementarity," arguably his greatest contribution to physics and philosophy. By tracing Bohr's work from his 1913 atomic theory to the introduction and then refinement of the idea of complementarity, and by explicating different meanings of "complementarity" in Bohr and the relationships between it and Bohr's other concepts, the book aims to offer a contained and accessible, and yet sufficiently comprehensive account of Bohr's work on complementarity and its significance.

Complementarity: Anti-Epistemology after Bohr and Derrida
ISBN: 9780822314370 / Angielski / Miękka / 1994 / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Many commentators have remarked in passing on the resonance between deconstructionist theory and certain ideas of quantum physics. In this book, Arkady Plotnitsky rigorously elaborates the similarities and differences between the two by focusing on the work of Niels Bohr and Jacques Derrida. In detailed considerations of Bohr's notion of complementarity and his debates with Einstein, and in analysis of Derrida's work via Georges Bataille's concept of general economy, Plotnitsky demonstrates the value of exploring these theories in relation to each other.

Mathematics, Science, and Postclassical Theory
ISBN: 9780822318637 / Angielski / Miękka / 1997 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. "Mathematics, Science, and Postclassical Theory" is a unique collection of essays dealing with the intersections between science and mathematics and the radical reconceptions of knowledge, language, proof, truth, and reality currently emerging from poststructuralist literary theory, constructivist history and sociology of science, and related work in contemporary philosophy. Featuring a distinguished group of international contributors, this volume engages themes and issues central to current theoretical debates in virtually all disciplines: agency, causality, determinacy, representation, and...

The Quantum-Like Revolution: A Festschrift for Andrei Khrennikov
ISBN: 9783031129858 / Angielski / Twarda / 2023 / 360 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. Over the last ten years, elements of the formalism of quantum mechanics have been successfully applied beyond physics in areas such as psychology (especially cognition), economics and finance (especially in the formalization of so-called ‘decision making’), political science, and molecular biology. An important stream of work along these lines, commonly under the heading of quantum-like modeling, has been published in well regarded scientific journals, and major publishers have devoted entire books to the topic. This Festschrift honors a key figure in this field of research: Andrei...
