On Space and Time（ISBN=9780521889261） 115盘 下载 pdf txt 电子版 mobi snb docx

What is the true nature of space and time? These concepts are at

the heart of science, but they remain deeply wrapped in enigma.

Their structure at both the smallest pre-subatomic and the largest

cosmological levels continues to defy modern physics and may

require revolutionary new ideas for which science is still

grasping. This unique volume brings together world leaders in

cosmology, particle physics, quantum gravity, mathematics,

philosophy and theology, to provide fresh insights into the deep

structure of space and time. Andrew Taylor explains the evidence

for dark matter and dark energy. Shahn Majid argues that space and

time should be quantum. Roger Penrose explains what in his view

comes before the 'Big Bang'. Alain Connes argues that matter is

geometry as a fine structure to spacetime. Michael Heller explores

the philosophical and theological implications of spacetime. John

Polkinghorne argues for a theory of how time unfolds.

What is the true nature of space and time? These concepts are at the heart of science, but they remain deeply wrapped in enigma. Their structure at both the smallest pre-subatomic and the largest cosmological levels continues to defy modern physics and may require revolutionary new ideas for which science is still grasping. This unique volume brings together world leaders in cosmology, particle physics, quantum gravity, mathematics, philosophy and theology, to provide fresh insights into the deep structure of space and time. Andrew Taylor explains the evidence for dark matter and dark energy. Shahn Majid argues that space and time should be quantum. Roger Penrose explains what in his view comes before the 'Big Bang'.
