Time And Science - Volume 3: Physical Sciences And Cosmology
Author: Remy Lestienne
Publisher: World Scientific
ISBN: 1800613865
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 367
Book Description
The present volume of Time and Science series is devoted to Physical Sciences and Cosmology. Today more than ever, the question 'is Time an ontological property, a necessary ingredient for the physical description of the world, or a purely epistemological element, relative to our situation in the world?' worry physicists and cosmologists alike. For many of them, Relativity (and particularly General Relativity), as well as its reconciliation with quantum mechanics in the elaboration of a quantum theory of gravitation, points to a negative answer to the first alternative, and leads them to deny the objective reality of time. For others, the answer is nuanced by the evidence of an emerging temporal property when one climbs the scales of the complexity of systems and/or the applicability of the statistical laws of thermodynamics. But for some, the illusion of the unreality of time comes from certain confusions that they denounce, and plead for the re-establishment of time at the heart of physical theories.

Hellenistic Philosophy
Author: A. A. Long
Publisher: Univ of California Press
ISBN: 9780520058088
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 294
Book Description
The purpose of this book is to trace the main developments in Greek philosophy during the period which runs from the death of Alexander the Great in 323 B.c. to the end of the Roman Republic (31 B.c.). These three centuries, known to us as the Hellenistic Age, witnessed a vast expansion of Greek civilization eastwards, following Alexander's conquests; and later, Greek civilization penetrated deeply into the western Mediterranean world assisted by the political conquerors of Greece, the Romans. But philosophy throughout this time remained a predominantly Greek activity. The most influential thinkers in the Hellenistic world were Stoics, Epicureans and Sceptics. This book gives a concise critical analysis of their ideas and their methods of thought. The last book in English to cover this ground was written sixty years ago. In the interval the subject has moved on, quite rapidly since the last war, but most of the best work is highly specialized. There is a clear need for a general appraisal of Hellenistic philosophy which can provide those who are not specialists with an up-to-date account of the subject. Hellenistic philosophy is often regarded as a dull product of second-rate thinkers who are unable to stand comparison with Plato and Aristotle. This book will help to remove such misconceptions and arouse wider interest in a field which is fascinating both historically and conceptually.

The Science Mysterious Activity and Ultra Technology
Author: NKSR Nantu Roy
Publisher: Blue Rose Publishers
ISBN:
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 224
Book Description
The book is written about different mysterious activity of science field and it describing that social system is manmade. Common peoples believe that gods and goddess is creator but actual fact that gods and goddess were our ancestors who guides or ruled at prehistoric or historic time. Hence, believes about analytical method of scientific matter about origin of galaxy, earth and living organism. There are various Mysterious Activities around the Universe and the World. It is Analytical work. New Concept Given as Evolution of new born Galaxy and maturity, Pre Oceanic Age Earth, Oceanic Age Earth, Origin of Micro Organism, Transformation of Micro Organism and evolution of Macro and Mega Organism, New Organism Generation formation to stabilized mutation, Evolution of Continent and Ocean, World Human Migration and Hybridization, Analytical Household Treatment, New Mode of Atomization and Flexible technology, Multistory Station System, Multi Functional Robotic Vehicles, etc.

A Fuller Explanation
Author: Amy C. Edmondson
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 1468474855
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 320
Book Description
In a broad sense Design Science is the grammar of a language of images rather than of words. Modern communication techniques enable us to transmit and reconstitute images without the need of knowing a specific verbal sequential language such as the Morse code or Hungarian. International traffic signs use international image symbols which are not specific to any particular verbal language. An image language differs from a verbal one in that the latter uses a linear string of symbols, whereas the former is multidimensional. Architectural renderings commonly show projections onto three mutually perpendicular planes, or consist of cross sections at differ ent altitudes representing a stack of floor plans. Such renderings make it difficult to imagine buildings containing ramps and other features which disguise the separation between floors; consequently, they limit the creativity of the architect. Analogously, we tend to analyze natural structures as if nature had used similar stacked renderings, rather than, for instance, a system of packed spheres, with the result that we fail to perceive the system of organization determining the form of such structures.
