The Creation of Scientific Effects: Heinrich Hertz and Electric Waves
ISBN: 9780226078885 / Angielski / Miękka / 1994 / 496 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This book is an attempt to reconstitute the tacit knowledge the shared, unwritten assumptions, values, and understandings that shapes the work of science. Jed Z. Buchwald uses as his focus the social and intellectual world of nineteenth-century German physics.
Drawing on the lab notes, published papers, and unpublished manuscripts of Heinrich Hertz, Buchwald recreates Hertz's 1887 invention of a device that produced electromagnetic waves in wires. The invention itself was serendipitous and the device was quickly transformed, but Hertz's early experiments led to major innovations in...

Gravity's Shadow: The Search for Gravitational Waves
ISBN: 9780226113784 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 864 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. According to the theory of relativity, we are constantly bathed in gravitational radiation. When stars explode or collide, a portion of their mass becomes energy that disturbs the very fabric of the space-time continuum like ripples in a pond. But proving the existence of these waves has been difficult; the cosmic shudders are so weak that only the most sensitive instruments can be expected to observe them directly. Fifteen times during the last thirty years scientists have claimed to have detected gravitational waves, but so far none of those claims have survived the scrutiny of the...

Quantum Mechanics: Historical Contingency and the Copenhagen Hegemony
ISBN: 9780226132044 / Angielski / Miękka / 1994 / 328 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Why does one theory "succeed" while another, possibly clearer interpretation, fails? By exploring two observationally equivalent yet conceptually incompatible views of quantum mechanics, James T. Cushing shows how historical contingency can be crucial to determining a theory's construction and its position among competing views.
Since the late 1920s, the theory formulated by Niels Bohr and his colleagues at Copenhagen has been the dominant interpretation of quantum mechanics. Yet an alternative interpretation, rooted in the work of Louis de Broglie in the early 1920s and reformulated and...

Notes on Quantum Mechanics
ISBN: 9780226243818 / Angielski / Miękka / 1995 / 196 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The lecture notes presented here in facsimile were prepared by Enrico Fermi for students taking his course at the University of Chicago in 1954. They are vivid examples of his unique ability to lecture simply and clearly on the most essential aspects of quantum mechanics.
At the close of each lecture, Fermi created a single problem for his students. These challenging exercises were not included in Fermi's notes but were preserved in the notes of his students. This second edition includes a set of these assigned problems as compiled by one of his former students, Robert A. Schluter....

How Experiments End
ISBN: 9780226279152 / Angielski / Miękka / 1987 / 337 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. "Galison provides excellent histories of three experimental episodes: the measurement of the gyromagnetic ratio of the electron, the discovery of the mu meson, or muon, and the discovery of weak neutral currents. These studies of actual experiments will provide valuable material for both philosophers and historians of science and Galison's own thoughts on the nature of experiment are extremely important. . . . Galison has given both philosophers and historians much to think about. I strongly urge you to read this book." Allan Franklin, "British Journal of the Philosophy of Science"...

Image and Logic: A Material Culture of Microphysics
ISBN: 9780226279176 / Angielski / Miękka / 1997 / 982 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. "I want to get at the blown glass of the early cloud chambers and the oozing noodles of wet nuclear emulsion; to the resounding crack of a high-voltage spark arcing across a high-tension chamber and leaving the lab stinking of ozone; to the silent, darkened room, with row after row of scanners sliding trackballs across projected bubble-chamber images. Pictures and pulses--I want to know where they came from, how pictures and counts got to be the bottom-line data of physics." (from the preface) Image and Logic is the most detailed engagement to date with the impact of modern...

Descartes' Metaphysical Physics
ISBN: 9780226282176 / Angielski / Twarda / 1992 / 404 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In this first book-length treatment of Descartes' important and influential natural philosophy, Daniel Garber is principally concerned with Descartes' accounts of matter and motion--the joint between Descartes' philosophical and scientific interests. These accounts constitute the point at which the metaphysical doctrines on God, the soul, and body, developed in writings like the Meditations, give rise to physical conclusions regarding atoms, vacua, and the laws that matter in motion must obey. Garber achieves a philosophically rigorous reading of Descartes that is sensitive to the...
