2005BOLLATI BORINGHIERI 2005 LIEVI LIEVI SEGNI DEL TEMPO E UN PICCOLO CENNO DI PIEGA AL MARGINE ANGOLARE DELLA QUARTA DI COPERTINA, PER IL RESTO PERFETTO. L'uomo si è confrontato per millenni con le questioni fondamentali dell'origine e della fine del nostro universo. Oggi siamo alla vigilia di scoperte che daranno una risposta a queste domande rivelandoci i più profondi segreti della natura. Oggi gli scienziati sanno come l'universo finirà e sono sul punto di capire come è cominciato. Le loro scoperte costituiranno uno dei più grandi trionfi della scienza moderna, confrontabile con la decifrazione del genoma umano. Questo libro fornisce tutte le risposte alle domande che le sempre più numerose notizie sulle più recenti scoperte cosmologiche suscitano nel lettore non specialista, rendendo la scienza più avanzata meravigliosamente chiara ed eccitante.
2007UTET 2007 XI-297 PP. FONDO DI MAGAZZINO: LIEVI SEGNI DEL TEMPO, VOLUME PERFETTO E INTONSO. La meccanica celeste ha sempre accompagnato lo sviluppo della civiltà sul nostro pianeta. Dalle prime osservazioni astronomiche degli antichi Caldei, attraverso i lavori di Henri Poincaré la meccanica celeste è tornata in prima linea. Infatti, i recenti progressi tecnologici nel campo dell'astronomia osservativa hanno notevolmente aumentato il numero di oggetti celesti scoperti dall'uomo: migliaia di asteroidi, centinaia di comete, decine di satelliti naturali e anelli planetari, una nuova popolazione di corpi celesti oltre l'orbita di Nettuno, nonché innumerevoli sistemi planetari extra-solari attorno ad altre stelle. A ciò si aggiunga che l'uomo ha ormai un programma consolidato di esplorazione interplanetaria e nelle vicinanze della Terra: una nube di satelliti artificiali e di detriti spaziali circonda il nostro pianeta. Sulla base di tali recenti sviluppi scientifici, la moderna meccanica celeste ha assunto un ruolo fortemente interdisciplinare, coinvolgendo argomenti quali la stabilità, le risonanze e il caos. L'obiettivo del libro, pubblicato in edizione inglese nel 2007 dalla casa editrice Praxis-Springer, è di presentare la moderna meccanica celeste come una disciplina di facile comprensione per il lettore non specialista e allo stesso tempo di stimolare un pubblico più specializzato, mostrando le possibili connessioni tra i diversi affascinanti campi di studio. Il volume è introdotto dalla prefazione di Margherita Hack.
RAFFAELLO CORTINA 1999 SEGNI DEL TEMPO ALLA COPERTINA, VOLUME INTONSO, MAI SFOGLIATO. Gli astri determinano davvero il nostro destino, come vole l'astrologia, oppure si tratta solo di superstizione e inganno? E' finita l'epoca della conquista umana della Luna, o sarà Marte il nuovo obiettivo? Esiste vita intelligente nel Cosmo? Qual è l'origine dell'Universo, e quale sarà, se mai ci sarà, la fine? A queste e altre domande risponde uno dei nomi più noti della ricerca scientifica italiana: un dialogo ideale con Galileo ed Einstein, con lucrezio e Leopardi alla ricerca dei fenomeni che regolano l'attività di galassie, stelle e pianeti.
