Description for Unified Field Theories
Paperback. Drawing on Russian sources, the author analyses the early further development of unified field theories. He presents the evolution of these theories as a process of interaction and competition between geometric field and quantum research programs. Translator(s): Barbour, J. B. Series: Science Networks. Historical Studies. Num Pages: 355 pages, biography. BIC Classification: PB. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 237 x 340 x 21. Weight in Grams: 542.
Despite the rapidly expanding ambit of physical research and the continual appearance of new branches of physics, the main thrust in its development was and is the attempt at a theoretical synthesis of the entire body of physical knowledge. The main triumphs in physical science were, as a rule, associ ated with the various phases of this synthesis. The most radical expression of this tendency is the program of construction of a unified physical theory. After Maxwellian electrodynamics had unified the phenomena of electricity, magnetism, and optics in a single theoretical scheme on the basis of the con cept of ... Read more
