ISBN: 9780393338645 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 370 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Is there a number at the root of the universe?

Albert Einstein's Special Theory of Relativity: Emergence (1905) and Early Interpretation (1905-1911)
ISBN: 9780387948706 / Angielski / Miękka / 1997 / 446 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book analyzes one of the three great papers Einstein published in 1905, each of which would alter forever the field it dealt with. The second of these papers, "On the Electrodynamics of Moving Bodies," had an impact in a much broader field than electrodynamics: it established what Einstein sometimes referred to (after 1906) as the "so-called Theory of Relativity." Miller uses the paper to provide a window into the intense intellectual struggles of physicists in the first decade of the 20th century: the interplay between physical theory and empirical data, the fiercely held notions that...

Miller delves into the connections between modern art and modern physics. He takes us on a wide-ranging study to demonstrate that scientists and artists have a common aim: a visual interpretation of both the visible and invisible aspects of nature. Along the way, we encounter the philosophy of mind and language, cognitive science and neurophysiology in our search for the origins and meaning of visual imagery.

Politics, Democracy, and the Supreme Court: Essays on the Frontier of Constitutional Theory
ISBN: 9780313248313 / Angielski / Twarda / 1985 / 368 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Miller proposes that we focus our energies on the question of how the Constitution is to function in an era of rapid and fundamental social change. He introduces this provocative collection of essays with the observation that American constitutional theory has arrived at a dead-end, largely because it has been perceived as constitutional law rather than a form of political theory. He puts this view into sharp perspective by looking at what are in effect, three constitutions--the political, the economic, and the emergent corporate instrument. He analyzes important issues that confront the...
