商品描述
The letters transcribed in this book were written by physicist David Bohm to three close female acquaintances in the period 1950 to 1956. They provide a background to his causal interpretation of quantum mechanics and the Marxist philosophy that inspired his scientific work in quantum theory, probability and statistical mechanics. In his letters, Bohm reveals the ideas that led to his ground breaking book Causality and Chance in Modern Physics. The political arguments as well as the acute personal problems contained in these letters help to give a rounded, human picture of this leading scientist and twentieth century thinker.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
這本書中轉錄的信件是由物理學家大衛·玻姆(David Bohm)於1950年至1956年間寫給三位親密女性友人的。這些信件提供了他對量子力學的因果解釋及啟發他在量子理論、機率和統計力學方面科學工作的馬克思主義哲學的背景。在信中,玻姆揭示了導致他開創性著作《現代物理學中的因果性與機會》(Causality and Chance in Modern Physics)的思想。這些信件中包含的政治論點以及尖銳的個人問題,幫助我們更全面地了解這位傑出的科學家和二十世紀的思想家。
