Quantum Revolution in Philosophy
ISBN: 9780198844679 / Angielski / Miękka / 2019 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Quantum theory launched a revolution in physics. But we have yet to understand the revolution's significance for philosophy. Richard Healey opens a path to such understanding. Most studies of the conceptual foundations of quantum theory first try to interpret the theory - to say how the world could possibly be the way the theory says it is. But, though fundamental, quantum theory is enormously successful without describing the world in its own terms. When properly applied, models of quantum theory offer good advice on the significance and credibility of claims about the world expressed in...

Reduction, Time and Reality: Studies in the Philosophy of the Natural Sciences
ISBN: 9780521143721 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The contributors to this 1981 volume are all concerned with scientific realism, but each author questions or rejects aspects of the way it has traditionally been discussed. There are three main foci of attention - reduction, time and modality - and the analyses bring out complexities and difficulties obscured in the standard accounts of scientific realism. The papers are powerful and original, representing some of the best in modern philosophy of science, and each were specifically commissioned for the volume. It is an excellent source book for courses on realism or the philosophy of science....

Gauging What's Real: The Conceptual Foundations of Gauge Theories
ISBN: 9780199287963 / Angielski / Twarda / 2007 / 318 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Gauge theories have provided our most successful representations of the fundamental forces of nature. How, though, do such representations work? Interpretations of gauge theory aim to answer this question. Through understanding how a gauge theory's representations work, we are able to say what kind of world our gauge theories reveal to us.
A gauge theory's representations are mathematical structures. These may be transformed among themselves while certain features remain the same. Do the representations related by such a gauge transformation merely offer alternative ways of representing...

The Philosophy of Quantum Mechanics: An Interactive Interpretation
ISBN: 9780521371056 / Angielski / Twarda / 1989 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This is one of the most important books on quantum mechanics to have appeared in recent years. It offers a dramatically new interpretation that resolves puzzles and paradoxes associated with the measurement problem and the behavior of coupled systems. A crucial feature of this interpretation is that a quantum mechanical measurement can be certain to have a particular outcome even when the observed system fails to have the property corresponding to that outcome just prior to the measurement interaction.

Quantum Measurement: Beyond Paradox Volume 17
ISBN: 9780816630653 / Angielski / Twarda / 1998 / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Together with relativity theory, quantum mechanics stands as the conceptual foundation of modern physics. It forms the basis by which we understand the minute workings of the subatomic world. But at its core lies a paradox--it is unmeasurable. This book presents a powerful and energetic new approach to the measurement dilemma.

Parallel Processing Algorithms for GIS
ISBN: 9780748405084 / Angielski / Twarda / 1997 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Over the last fifteen years GIS has become a fully-fledged technology, deployed across a range of application areas. However, although computer advances in performance appear to continue unhindered, data volumes and the growing sophistication of analysis procedures mean that performance will increasingly become a serious concern in GIS. Parallel computing offers a potential solution. However, traditional algorithms may not run effectively in a parallel environment, so utilization of parallel technology is not entirely straightforward. This groundbreaking book examines some of the current...

The Authority of Reason
ISBN: 9780521556149 / Angielski / Miękka / 1998 / 324 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This challenging and provocative book argues against much contemporary orthodoxy in philosophy and the social sciences by showing why objectivity in the domain of ethics is really no different from the objectivity of scientific knowledge. In the course of the book Jean Hampton examines moral realism, the general nature of reason and norms, internalism and externalism, instrumental reasoning, and the expected utility model of practical reasoning. The book should prove to be a seminal work in the theory of rationality that will be read by a broad swathe of philosophers and social scientists.
