Philosophy: metaScience & Technology
Hardback. Many, perhaps most textbooks of quantum mechanics present a Copenhagen, single system angle; fewer present the subject matter as an instrument for treating ensembles, but the two methods have been silently coexisting since the mid-Thirties. This work resolves this dichotomy by examining the mutual relation between single systems and ensembles. Series: Boston Studies in the Philosophy and History of Science. Num Pages: 336 pages, biography. BIC Classification: HPJ; PHQ. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly. Dimension: 242 x 167 x 25. Weight in Grams: 650.

Hardback. Heidegger holds that our age is dominated by the ambition of reason to possess the world. Leibniz is the man who formulated the theorem: nothing happens without a reason. This book shows Leibniz as one who defends the thought of being in the unity of monadology, and Heidegger as a thinker who preserves the sign of reason in his meditating thought.
