Physics and Philosophy

by James Jeans

Physics and Philosophy Cover

 

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

In this strikingly lucid and often poetic book, one of the 20th century's greatest scientists grapples with age-old philosophical questions about the earth, science, and reality, achieving in the process a brilliant non-technical exposition of the interrelationship between physics and philosophy.

Synopsis:

A noted scientist illuminates the intertwined paths of philosophy and science from Plato to the present, and examines the transition from Newtonian classical mechanics to modern relativistic physics.

Synopsis:

Eloquent exposition of the philosophical implications of scientific knowledge, considered anew in light of 20th-century physics.
