NO owner's name or bookplate. Pages are fresh crisp clean and unmarked -- obviously never read. Illustrated with diagrams. Footnotes. Bibliographical references. Name Index. Subject Index. Bound in the original orange-stamped brown boards. Complete with dust jacket. From the publisher: "Physics was transformed between 1890 and 1930 and this volume provides a detailed history of the era and emphasizes the key role of geometrical ideas. The first part of the book discusses the application of n-dimensional differential geometry to mechanics and theoretical physics the philosophical questions on the reality of geometry and reviews the broad international debate about the nature of geometry and its connections with psychology. The second part then examines the reception of Einstein's theory of special relativity following 1905. It covers Minkowski's reformulation of the theory providing the first complete picture of his work and it describes Einstein's path to formulating general relativity. The chapter on Hilbert's efforts to axiomatize relativity argues against the traditional view of Hilbert as arch-formalist and the following chapter provides the first detailed account of Emmy Noether's work on physics. The final section examines the work by Ricci Levi-Civita and Weyl to give a new formulation of general relativity in terms of the Riemann differential. This collection will be an invaluable resource for historians and philosophers of science.". First Printing of the First Edition. Hardcover.

‎Quanti. La straordinaria storia della meccanica quantistica‎

‎br. «Ma davvero tu credi che la Luna non sia lì quando nessuno la guarda?», così Albert Einstein esprime tutte le sue perplessità al collega e futuro biografo Abraham Pais. Esse riguardano i fondamenti della meccanica quantistica, la nuova finestra che i fisici hanno spalancato sul mondo naturale all'inizio del Novecento. Una visione molto lontana dal senso comune, che mette in discussione persino il concetto di realtà oggettiva. Gli interrogativi di Einstein sono uno degli elementi principali del confronto intorno alla meccanica quantistica, a sua volta uno dei dibattiti più elevati e profondi nella storia della cultura umana. La vicenda dei quanti, delle sue stranezze, dei suoi paradossi, della sua estrema precisione, delle sue domande filosofi che sulla realtà e sull'oggettività ha attraversato tutto il XX secolo. E non ha raggiunto ancora un approdo sicuro. La discussione è più che mai aperta e va di pari passo con i risultati empirici e le straordinarie tecnologie che ha prodotto. La domanda resta aperta: «Ma davvero tu credi che la Luna non sia lì quando nessuna la guarda?».‎

‎Greison Gabriella‎

‎Sei donne che hanno cambiato il mondo. Le grandi scienziate della fisica del XX secolo‎

‎br. I sei brevi romanzi in cui perdersi in questo libro sono quelli di Marie Curie (1867-1934), Lise Meitner (1878-1968), Emmy Noether (1882-1935), Rosalind Franklin (1920-1958), Hedy Lamarr (1914-2000) e Mileva Mari? (1875-1948). Per molti saranno nomi sconosciuti, eppure queste sei donne sono state delle pioniere. Sono nate tutte nell'arco di cinquant'anni e hanno operato negli anni cruciali e ruggenti del Novecento, che sono stati anni di guerre terribili, ma anche di avanzamenti scientifici epocali. C'è la chimica polacca che non poteva frequentare l'università, la fisica ebrea che era odiata dai nazisti, la matematica tedesca che nessuno amava, la cristallografa inglese alla quale scipparono le scoperte, la diva hollywoodiana che fu anche ingegnere militare e la teorica serba che fu messa in ombra dal marito. Le sei eroine raccontate da Gabriella Greison non sono certo le sole donne della scienza, ma sono quelle che forse hanno aperto la strada alle altre, con la loro volontà, la loro abilità, il talento e la protervia, in un mondo apertamente ostile, fatto di soli uomini. Sono quelle che hanno dato alla scienza e a tutti noi i risultati eclatanti delle loro ricerche e insieme la consapevolezza che era possibile - era necessario - dare accesso alle donne all'impresa scientifica. Non averlo fatto per così tanto tempo è un delitto che è stato pagato a caro prezzo dalla società umana. Sono sei storie magnifiche. Non sempre sono storie allegre e non sempre sono a lieto fine, perché sono racconti veri, di successi e di fallimenti. Ma è grazie a queste icone della scienza novecentesca e al loro esempio che abbiamo avuto poi altre donne, che hanno fatto un po' meno fatica a farsi largo e ci hanno regalato i frutti del loro sapere e della loro immaginazione. Dietro di loro sempre più donne si appassionano alla scienza, e un domani, in numero sempre maggiore, saranno libere di regalarci il frutto delle loro brillanti intelligenze.‎

‎Poggendorff I, 954. De Backer/Sommervogel III, 1833. Äußerst seltene erste Ausgabe. Postum erschienen. - Francesco Maria Grimaldi (1618-1663) war ein italienischer Jesuit, Physiker, Mathematiker u. Astronom. Er befaßte sich u.a. mit der Brechung und Beugung des Lichtes, in vorliegendem Werk wird dieses Phänomen zum ersten Mal dokumentiert. Die grundlegenden Arbeiten zur Optik wurden später von Newton, Huygens u. Fresnel aufgegriffen und bestätigt. - "His work on light was so novel that it had a much smaller impact than one might have expected. He completed writing Physico-Mathesis de Lumine shortly before his death and it was published in 1665. The work is an attempt by Grimaldi to determine whether light is a substance or whether it is a quality of another substance. He does this in a rather unusual way. The treatise consists of two books, the first puts forward arguments that light is a substance, although it does sometimes put the opposing view, while the second book argues that light is a quality of another substance. Grimaldi makes it clear that his own view is that light is not a substance and he believes that the arguments in the second book make it probable that light is a quality. Both books, however, have a common feature; they both argue against a corpuscular theory of light. Book 1 begins with a description of Grimaldi's most famous discovery, namely the diffraction of light. He created a pinhole through which he allowed light from the sun to enter a darkened room and fall on a screen. The screen was at an angle so that the light produced a elliptical image on the screen. He placed a thin rod in the path of the light and measured the size of the shadow on the screen. He discovered that the shadow was larger than it should have been given conical nature of the beam. From this he argued that this effect was impossible if light consisted of corpuscles so light must have a fluid form which bent round the object. He also noticed coloured bands near to the shadow of the rod. Each band had three components, a white broad central part with a narrow violet band on the side nearest the shadow with a narrow red band on its side furthest from the shadow. He then described what effect was produced by placing obstacles of a different shape from the rod in the path of the cone of light. The name diffraction was chosen by Grimaldi because the effect reminded him of how a flowing fluid splits apart when a thin stick is placed in its path - the Latin diffractio means to "break apart". After treating diffraction, he looked at interference by allowing the light to enter the darkened room through two pinholes and observing where the images overlapped on the screen. He announced with the following proposition." (Quelle: J.J. O'Connor and E.F. Robertson - School of Mathematics and Statistics University of St. Andrews/Scotland).‎
