Symmetry, Structure, and Spacetime: Volume 3
ISBN: 9780444531162 / Angielski / Twarda / 2007 / 229 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych. In this book Rickles considers several interpretative difficulties raised by gauge-type symmetries (those that correspond to no change in physical state). The ubiquity of such symmetries in modern physics renders them an urgent topic in philosophy of physics. Rickles focuses on spacetime physics, and in particular classical and quantum general relativity. Here the problems posed are at their most pathological, involving the apparent disappearance of spacetime Rickles argues that both traditional ontological positions should be replaced by a structuralist account according to which relational...

A Brief History of String Theory: From Dual Models to M-Theory
ISBN: 9783642451270 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 251 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. During its forty year lifespan, string theory has always had the power to divide, being called both a 'theory of everything' and a 'theory of nothing'. Critics have even questioned whether it qualifies as a scientific theory at all. This book adopts an objective stance, standing back from the question of the truth or falsity of string theory and instead focusing on how it came to be and how it came to occupy its present position in physics. An unexpectedly rich history is revealed, with deep connections to our most well-established physical theories. Fully self-contained and...

ISBN: 9780199269693 / Angielski / Twarda / 2007 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. What is spacetime? General relativity and quantum field theory answer this question in very different ways. This collection of essays by physicists and philosophers looks at the problem of uniting these two most fundamental theories of our world, focusing on the nature of space and time within this new quantum framework, and the kind of metaphysical picture suggested by recent developments in physics and mathematics. This is a book that will inspire further philosophical reflection on recent advances in modern physics.
