Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - 'The Bases of Modern Science' provides a lucid and comprehensive overview of the fundamental principles underlying the scientific revolution of the early twentieth century. Written by the acclaimed science writer J. W. N. Sullivan, this work synthesizes the complex developments in physics and mathematics that reshaped our understanding of the physical universe. Sullivan guides the reader through the transition from Newtonian mechanics to the groundbreaking theories of relativity and quantum mechanics, explaining how these shifts altered the very foundations of human knowledge.The book explores the philosophical implications of scientific discovery, examining the relationship between physical reality and mathematical abstraction. Sullivan's prose is noted for its clarity and accessibility, making profound concepts in theoretical physics intelligible to the educated layperson. By tracing the evolution of scientific thought, 'The Bases of Modern Science' highlights the intellectual rigor and imaginative leaps required to decode the laws of nature. This work remains a significant contribution to the history and philosophy of science, capturing a pivotal moment when the classical worldview gave way to a more complex and mysterious reality.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
