BOLLATI BORINGHIERI 2002 PRIMA EDIZIONE. LIEVI SEGNI DEL TEMPO ALLA COPERTINA, VOLUME INTONSO, MAI SFOGLIATO. La brillante descrizione che non mancherà di appassionare anche chi non abbia competenze matematiche o scientifiche del modo in cui il concetto di zero, con quello gemello di infinito, ha più volte rivoluzionato i fondamenti della civiltà e del pensiero filosofico. Quarta di copertina Destinato anche a chi non abbia competenze matematiche o scientifiche, il libro offre una brillante descrizione del modo in cui il concetto di zero, con quello gemello di infinito, ha più volte rivoluzionato i fondamenti della civiltà e del pensiero flosofico. La storia del numero zero è seguita dalla sua nascita come concetto filosofico orientale alla sua combattuta accettazione in Europa (com'è noto, non fu accolto dai greci) e alla sua apoteosi nel quadro della teoria dei buchi neri. Da Aristotele a Einstein e oltre, viene qui presentata la ricca e complessa storia della semplice nozione di "nulla" sulla quale si confrontarono scienziati e mistici, cosmologi e religiosi, ogni volta mettendo in crisi le basi della filosofia, della scienza, della teologia.

altersgemäß sehr guter Zustand - Wenn nichts mehr funktioniert und die Welt unübersichtlich wird, sprechen wir von Chaos Und wir merken dann immer häufiger, daß Planung und Ordnungsschemata nur noch unzulängliche Mittel zur Bewältigung unserer großen Zukunftsaufgabe, dem Management von Komplexität, sind. Wir sind gelähmt vom Eindruck der Unübersichtlichkeit und fühlen uns bedroht. -- Daß das störende, unproduktive Chaos aber gerade ein Resultat starrer Ordnungsmuster ist, müssen wir uns erst klarmachen. Chaos ist also nicht das Gegenteil von Ordnung, sondern ihre Rückseite, ihr Schatten. Denn wir leben schließlich in einer Welt, die schlechthin riskant ist und in der Weltoffenheit identisch ist mit Risikobereitschaft. -- Deshalb müssen wir uns, die wir uns alle in großen, feinvernetzten Systemen befinden, mit dem Chaos versöhnen und die neuen Medien als Spielraum unserer Existenz begreifen.
