Soft cover. Condizione: Very Good. 1st Edition. Vesalius College: 25 Years of Academic Excellence in Teaching and Research, edited by William L. Chew III and Bert Mosselmans. Brussels: VUBPress / Brussels University Press, 2012. First edition. English text. 408 pages. Published to mark the twenty-fifth anniversary of Vesalius College in Brussels, this substantial academic volume brings together essays reflecting the college's international and interdisciplinary tradition in teaching and research. Rather than functioning merely as an institutional history, the book presents a wide-ranging collection of scholarly contributions addressing European politics and integration, international relations, economics, gender and governance, journalism, media, education and contemporary social issues. Contributors and subjects include Alison Woodward on gender and informal governance, Michel Huysseune on Euroscepticism and the Lega Nord, and Leo Van Hove on the economic and social implications of payment systems and the move away from cash. The individual studies make the volume useful not only as a record of Vesalius College's first quarter-century, but also as a snapshot of European and international scholarship in Brussels in the early twenty-first century. An uncommon institutional and academic publication of particular interest to alumni and scholars of Vesalius College, Vrije Universiteit Brussel, European Studies, International Relations, Political Science, Economics and Higher Education.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - Quantum Structures and the Nature of Reality is a collection of papers written for an interdisciplinary audience about the quantum structure research within the International Quantum Structures Association. The advent of quantum mechanics has changed our scientific worldview in a fundamental way. Many popular and semi-popular books have been published about the paradoxical aspects of quantum mechanics. Usually, however, these reflections find their origin in the standard views on quantum mechanics, most of all the wave-particle duality picture. Contrary to relativity theory, where the meaning of its revolutionary ideas was linked from the start with deep structural changes in the geometrical nature of our world, the deep structural changes about the nature of our reality that are indicated by quantum mechanics cannot be traced within the standard formulation. The study of the structure of quantum theory, its logical content, its axiomatic foundation, has been motivated primarily by the search for their structural changes. Due to the high mathematical sophistication of this quantum structure research, no books have been published which try to explain the recent results for an interdisciplinary audience. This book tries to fill this gap by collecting contributions from some of the main researchers in the field. They reveal the steps that have been taken towards a deeper structural understanding of quantum theory. …

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - How do scientists approach science Scientists, sociologists and philosophers were asked to write on this intriguing problem and to display their results at the International Congress `Einstein Meets Magritte'. The outcome of their effort can be found in this rather unique book, presenting all kinds of different views on science. Quantum mechanics is a discipline which deserves and receives special attention in this book, mainly because it is fascinating and, hence, appeals to the general public. This book not only contains articles on the introductory level, it also provides new insights and bold, even provocative proposals. That way, the reader gets acquainted with `science in the making', sitting in the front row. The contributions have been written for a broad interdisciplinary audience of scholars and students.…
