Real Science: What It Is and What It Means
ISBN: 9780521893107 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 412 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Unlike most other similar books, this systematic, carefully reasoned, non-technical analysis of the nature and significance of scientific knowledge opens the way to reconciliation in the 'science wars'. By describing how academic scientists actually undertake research and communicate their findings, it shows that the philosophy, psychology and sociology of science are inextricably entwined, and that 'realism' and 'relativism' are just two sides of the same coin. The writing is well-informed, down-to-earth and lucid.

There are many courses in schools, universities and other institutions, dealing with all sorts of topics such as the history of science, energy policy, industrial innovation, technology assessment, Third World development, scientific method, and so on. But what is this subject really about? Why should it be taught? Who should study it? What should they learn? How should the subject be approached? Who should teach it? These questions are being asked by both teachers and students in many fields of science,...

Wie Zuverlässig Ist Wissenschaftliche Erkenntnis?
ISBN: 9783528084837 / Niemiecki / Miękka / 1982 / 177 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. Dieses Buch entstand aus einer Vorlesung, die ich unter dem Tite "Darf man den Naturwissenschaften glauben" vor verschiedenen Auditorien gehalten habe. Auf Einladung der Van-Leer-Jerusalem-Stiftung konnte ich meinen Vortrag weiter ausarbeiten und in Form von vier ausgedehnten Seminaren im April 1975 einer hilfreich kritischen Gruppe von Philosophen, Geistes- und Naturwissenschaftlern prasentieren. Das Versprechen, mein Manuskript zur Veroffentlichung zu Uberarbeiten, fiel mir leicht, doch hatte es bereits ein gewisses Eigenleben angenommen und es dauerte noch zwei Jahre, bis ich es gezahmt...

Principles of the Theory of Solids
ISBN: 9780521297332 / Angielski / Miękka / 1979 / 452 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Professor Ziman's classic textbook on the theory of solids was first pulished in 1964. This paperback edition is a reprint of the second edition, which was substantially revised and enlarged in 1972. The value and popularity of this textbook is well attested by reviewers' opinions and by the existence of several foreign language editions, including German, Italian, Spanish, Japanese, Polish and Russian. The book gives a clear exposition of the elements of the physics of perfect crystalline solids. In discussing the principles, the author aims to give students an appreciation of the conditions...

Models of Disorder: The Theoretical Physics of Homogeneously Disordered Systems
ISBN: 9780521292801 / Angielski / Miękka / 1979 / 542 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Originally published in 1979, this book discusses how the physical and chemical properties of disordered systems such as liquids, glasses, alloys, amorphous semiconductors, polymer solutions and magnetic materials can be explained by theories based on a variety of mathematical models, including random assemblies of hard spheres, tetrahedrally-bonded networks and lattices of 'spins'. The text describes these models and the various mathematical theories by which the observable properties are derived. Techniques and concepts such as the mean field and coherent approximations, graphical...

This study of the theory of electrical and thermal conduction in metals, semiconductors, and insulators is written at a level appropriate to graduate students and research workers and assumes some knowledge of wave mechanics in its reader. The basic ideas of crystal lattice dynamics, electron zone structure, and transport theory are developed from first principles, and formulae for the macroscopic coefficients are deduced by self-contained mathematical arguments. Interpretation in terms of electronic structure, chemical purity, crystal structure, and crystal perfection is emphasized as a tool...

Of One Mind: The Collectivization of Science
ISBN: 9781563960659 / Angielski / Twarda / 1997 / 407 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. This superb collection by the eminent physicist and critic John Ziman, opens with an album of portraits of scientists--Albert Einstein, Freeman Dyson, Lev Landau, Mark Azbel, Andrei Sakharov. Ziman takes readers into the world of the contemporary scientist, showing how discoveries are made and how claims are tested. He then travels into the minds of scientists as they are drawn into competing directions. Here Ziman exposes the path of discovery, which is strewn with complex human needs, governmental restrictions, the desire for profits, and the exercise of technical virtuosity.

Prometheus Bound
ISBN: 9780521434300 / Angielski / Twarda / 1994 / 300 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. After expanding steadily for centuries, science is reaching the limits to its growth. We can no longer afford the ever-increasing cost of exploring ever wider research opportunites. In the competition for resources, science is becoming much more tightly organized. A radical, pervasive and permanent structural change is taking place. It already affects the whole research system, from everyday laboratory life to national budgets. The scientific enterprise cannot avoid fundamental change, but excessive managerial insistence on accountability, evaluation priority setting and so on, can be very...
