Helgoland - Carlo Rovelli

Známý soudobý teoretický fyzik Carlo Rovelli, jeden z tvůrců smyčkové kvantové gravitace, ale také vynikající spisovatel, se v této knize zabývá okolnostmi vzniku kvantové mechaniky, snad nejpozoruhodnější fyzikální teorie všech dob. Nejprve elegantně líčí její zrod v díle Heisenberga a Schrödingera a popisuje hlavní podivnosti teorie. Následuje líčení, jak se s nimi různí fyzikové pokusili vypořádat: zavedli kvůli nim paralelní vesmíry, skryté fyzikální proměnné anebo postulovali kolaps měření. Ani s jedním z těchto bizarních řešení se Rovelli neztotožňuje a předkládá čtenáři zajímavou a přirozenou variantu, takzvanou relační interpretaci kvantové teorie. A jak už je Rovelliho dobrým zvykem, jedná se o napínavé, poučné, a přitom obecně srozumitelné čtení.

White Holes - Carlo Rovelli

From Carlo Rovelli, the bestselling author of Seven Brief Lessons on Physics, this is a story of wonder, new worlds and why the end is just the beginningLet us journey into the heart of a black hole. Let us slip beyond its boundary, the horizon, and tumble - on and on - down this crack in the universe. As we plunge, we'll see geometry fold, we'll feel the equations draw tight around us.Eventually, we'll pass it: the remains of a star, deep and dense and falling further far. And then - the bottom. Where time and space end, and the white hole is born .. . With lightness and magic, here Carlo Rovelli traces the ongoing adventure of his own cutting-edge research, of the uncertainty and joy of going where we've not yet been.Guiding us to the edge of theory and experiment, he invites us to go beyond, to experience the fever and the disquiet of science. Here is the extraordinary life of a white hole.

Anaximander - Carlo Rovelli

Now widely available in English for the first time, this is Carlo Rovelli's first book: the thrilling story of a little-known man who created one of the greatest intellectual revolutions Over two thousand years ago, one man changed the way we see the world. Since the dawn of civilization, humans had believed in the heavens above and the Earth below. Then, on the Ionian coast, a Greek philosopher named Anaximander set in motion a revolution.He not only conceived that the Earth floats in space, but also that animals evolve, that storms and earthquakes are natural, not supernatural, that the world can be mapped and, above all, that progress is made by the endless search for knowledge. Carlo Rovelli's first book, now widely available in English, tells the origin story of scientific thinking: our rebellious ability to reimagine the world, again and again.

Helgoland - Carlo Rovelli

Prekvapujúco objavný pohľad na kvantovú teóriuČo je kvantová fyzika, ako ju objavili a čo vypovedá o nás? Odpoveď na tieto otázky formuluje Carlo Rovelli s preňho typickou filozofickou a kultúrnou hĺbkou, pričom jeho texty zostávajú jasné, výstižné a často priam lyrické.Začína opisom zrodu kvantovej fyziky na fascinujúcom ostrove bez stromov Helgoland v Severnom mori, kde sa mladý Werner Heisenberg liečil zo sennej nádchy. Práve tam prvý raz zazrel za klasickou mechanikou neobyčajné a prekrásne vnútro reality. V Rovelliho rozprávaní ožívajú géniovia svojej doby, približuje nám ich zvláštne pokusy, cez ktoré sa snažili pochopiť kvantovú teóriu, a objasňuje, prečo uznáva interpretáciu reality založenú na vzájomných interakciách a vzťahoch. Pokúša sa vysvetliť význam a vplyv tejto novej vízie sveta na filozofiu aj na chápanie seba samého. Sám hovorí:„Pochopenie, že neexistujeme ako autonómne subjekty, nám pomáha oslobodiť sa od pripútania a utrpenia. Práve pre svoju nestálosť, pre absenciu každého Absolútna má život zmysel a je drahocenný... sme len obrazmi obrazov. Realita vrátane nás samých je iba slabým a krehkým závojom, za ktorým... niet ničoho.“

Helgoland - Carlo Rovelli

The instant Sunday Times bestseller -- a beautiful story of rebellion and science''A triumph. . . We are left in a world that is not disenchanted by science, but even more magical'' Financial TimesIn June 1925, twenty-three-year-old Werner Heisenberg, suffering from hay fever, had retreated to the treeless, wind-battered island of Helgoland in the North Sea in order to think. Walking all night, by dawn he had wrestled with an idea that would transform the whole of science and our very conception of the world.In Helgoland Carlo Rovelli tells the story of the birth of quantum physics and its bright young founders who were to become some of the most famous Nobel winners in science. It is a celebration of youthful rebellion and intellectual revolution. An invitation to a magical place.Here Rovelli illuminates competing interpretations of this science and offers his own original view, describing the world we touch as a fabric woven by relations. Where we, as every other thing around us, exist in our interactions with one another, in a never-ending game of mirrors.A dazzling work from a celebrated scientist and master storyteller, Helgoland transports us to dizzying heights, reminding us of the many pleasures of the life ...

Realita není, čím se zdá - Carlo Rovelli

Kvantování gravitace patří k největším problémům dnešní teoretické fyziky. Nejde o nic menšího než o správné propojení tří pilířů moderní fyziky, jimiž jsou obecná relativita, kvantová teorie a statistická fyzika. A protože Einsteinova obecná relativita vysvětluje gravitaci deformací prostoročasu, klíčové je pochopit, co znamená kvantum prostoru a času. Rovelliho teorie má dalekosáhlé důsledky: „realita není, čím se zdá“, vzdálenost nelze dělit donekonečna, čas na fundamentální úrovni neexistuje, v centrech černých děr ani v počátečním velkém třesku našeho vesmíru nejsou ukryty ošklivé singularity. Zní to fantasticky a nepochopitelně? Skvěle napsaná kniha (vůbec první na toto téma) z pera jednoho z hlavních tvůrců smyčkové kvantové gravitace vám vysvětlí podrobnosti. A porozumíte jim. Protože Rovelli má vzácný talent s nadhledem vysvětlovat vrcholné vědecké teorie jasně a podmanivě, aniž by podlehl svodům komplikovaného matematického aparátu. Ne nadarmo se jeho popularizační knihy staly světovými bestsellery.

Řád času - Carlo Rovelli

Autor, přední teoretický fyzik, spolutvůrce smyčkové kvantové gravitace, ale také výtečný spisovatel, se ve své nejnovější knize zabývá tajemstvím času, možná vůbec největší záhadou světa. V první části srozumitelným způsobem shrnuje, co o čase zjistila moderní fyzika. Vysvětluje, že fyzikální čas vůbec není unikátní, všude stejný a stejně plynoucí, dokonce není ani spojitý, a na kvantové úrovni se úplně vytrácí. Do tohoto podivuhodného světa zbaveného vší časovosti nás Rovelli zavádí ve druhé části knihy, aby nás ve třetí části své dobrodružné výpravy dovedl zpátky k nám, k lidským bytostem. Je totiž nutné vysvětlit, odkud se vlastně bere náš intenzivní pocit plynoucího času. Během pátrání po pachateli Rovelli přichází s odvážnou myšlenkou, totiž že pachatelem může být sám detektiv. Neboť tajemství času možná ve své podstatě netkví v základech v kosmu, ale v nás samotných.

Reality Is Not What It Seems - Carlo Rovelli

From the best-selling author of Seven Brief Lessons on Physics comes a new book about the mind-bending nature of the universe What are time and space made of? Where does matter come from? And what exactly is reality? Scientist Carlo Rovelli has spent his life exploring these questions and pushing the boundaries of what we know. Here he explains how our image of the world has changed throughout centuries. From Aristotle to Albert Einstein, Michael Faraday to the Higgs boson, he takes us on a wondrous journey to show us that beyond our ever-changing idea of reality is a whole new world that has yet to be discovered.

The Order of Time - Carlo Rovelli

Time is a mystery that does not cease to puzzle us. Philosophers, artists and poets have long explored its meaning while scientists have found that its structure is different from the simple intuition we have of it. From Boltzmann to quantum theory, from Einstein to loop quantum gravity, our understanding of time has been undergoing radical transformations. Time flows at a different speed in different places, the past and the future differ far less than we might think, and the very notion of the present evaporates in the vast universe. With his extraordinary charm and sense of wonder, bringing together science, art and philosophy, Carlo Rovelli unravels this mystery, inviting us to imagine a world where time is in us and we are not in time.

Sedm krátkých přednášek z fyziky - Carlo Rovelli

Fyzika je opravdovým dobrodružstvím poznání. A moderní fyzika, vzešlá z vědeckých revolucí 20. století, posunula hranice našeho chápání světa daleko za hranice běžné představivosti. Rovelliho nejnovější kniha je souborem sedmi esejů, napsaných původně pro kulturní rubriku nedělních novin. Přes svou stručnost poskytují báječný a vyvážený přehled hlavních aspektů současné fyziky a kosmologie. Lekce se postupně věnují Einsteinově obecné teorii relativity, kvantové mechanice, globální architektuře kosmu, elementárním částicím, pokusům o kvantování gravitace, principiální náhodě, povaze času a termodynamice černých děr. Závěrečná sedmá lekce popisuje, jaké je naše vlastní místo ve fyzikální realitě, jak ji dnes známe. Lekce byly napsány především pro ty, kdo vědí jen málo anebo vůbec nic o přírodních vědách, jejich literární styl a obsah však ocení i odborně poučený čtenář. V Itálii se tato elegantně napsaná knížka z roku 2015 stala bestselerem a bude přeložena do více než 20 jazyků.

Story, Not Study: 30 Brief Lessons to Inspire Health Researchers as Writers - Christopher Watling, Lorelei Lingard

Many researchers dread writing. They find it laborious - even painful - to put their scholarly work into words. They get bogged down in the study, and lose track of the story. And they produce uninspiring papers that fail to resonate with readers or reviewers. This book offers an antidote to this problem: brief, accessible lessons that guide researchers to write clear and compelling scientific manuscripts. The book is divided into three sections - Story, Craft, and Community. The Story section offers advice on getting the balance of study and story just right, introducing strategies for tackling each section of a scientific manuscript. The Craft section considers the grammatical and rhetorical tools of the trade, showing how they can be wielded for maximum impact. And the Community section offers suggestions for writing collaboratively, supporting other writers, and navigating peer review. Each section features multiple short and pragmatic lessons, peppered with illustrative examples. Readers can use the chapters collectively to build holistic writing skills, or dip in and out to refine specific elements of the craft. Rooted in a coaching philosophy, we aim to unlock our readers'' potential as writers through instruction, reflection, and example. And we hope to inspire researchers ...

Agendas, Alternatives, and Public Policies (with an Epilogue on Health Care), Updated Edition - John Kingdon

Kingdon’s landmark work on agenda setting and policy formation is drawn from interview conducted with people in and around the U.S. federal government, and from case studies, government documents, party platforms, press coverage, and public opinion surveys. While other works examine how policy issues are decided, Kingdon’s book was the first to consider how issues got to be issues. This enduring work attempts to answer the questions: How do subjects come to officials’ attention? How are the alternatives from which they choose generated? How is the governmental agenda set? Why does an idea’s time come when it does? Longman is proud to announce that Agendas, Alternatives, and Public Policies has been reissued in this Longman Classics edition, featuring a new epilogue: Health Care Reform from Clinton to Obama. Comparing the Clinton administration in 1993 with the Obama administration in 2009 and 2010, Kingdon analyses how agenda setting, actors, and alternatives affect public policy.

From Self-Care to We-Care - Jordan Quaglia

Learn to balance and blend self-care and care for others through we-care, a science-backed compassion training that enhances personal and social well-being, promotes healthy boundaries, and offers a path of healing and growth.Helping professionals and empaths commonly find themselves burning out, overextended in their care for others. Yet few people feel there’s too much compassion in our society, and an overly strong focus on self-care can lead to unskillfulness when faced with interpersonal challenges and a lack of responsiveness to systemic social issues. The emerging science and practice of we-care embraces and transcends the principles of self-care in order to emphasize the inherently social nature of care. From this perspective, care is not a zero-sum game that will inevitably lead to self-indulgence for some and burnout for others, but rather an inherently social force that drives mutually beneficial outcomes. Yet we-care is more than a concept—it is a practical framework and set of tools to offer a more expansive view of care. Compassion researcher and teacher Jordan Quaglia guides you through questions such as, “Do you ever feel the urge to take away other people’s pain and discomfort, no matter the potential personal costs?” and “Do you ever feel overwhelmed ...

A Brief History of Florence Nightingale - Hugh Small

Praise for Small''s earlier work on Nightingale: ''Hugh Small, in a masterly piece of historical detective work, convincingly demonstrates what all previous historians and biographers have missed . . . This is a compelling psychological portrait of a very eminent (and complex) Victorian.''James Le Fanu, Daily TelegraphFlorence Nightingale (1820-1910) is best known as a reformer of hospital nursing during and after the Crimean War, but many feel that her nursing reputation has been overstated. A Brief History of Florence Nightingale tells the story of the sanitary disaster in her wartime hospital and why the government covered it up against her wishes. After the war she worked to put the lessons of the tragedy to good use to reduce the very high mortality from epidemic disease in the civilian population at home. She did this by persuading Parliament in 1872 to pass laws which required landlords to improve sanitation in working-class homes, and to give local authorities rather than central government the power to enforce the laws. Life expectancy increased dramatically as a result, and it was this peacetime civilian public health reform rather than her wartime hospital nursing record that established Nightingale''s reputation in her lifetime. After her death the ... Unknown localization key: "more"
