Erwin Schrödinger Poradie kníh

This volume contains new publications (typeset in LaTeX) of two essays by Schrödinger "Our Image of Matter" (1952) and "What is an Elementary Particle?" (1957) and his book Expanding Universes (1956). The collection intends to provide an idea of Schrödinger's views on the whole world - from the quantum level to the Universe. While the first two essays are written for a wider audience the third work - Expanding Universes - is more technical and would be also of interest to physicists and physics students.

This collection contains a new publication of the Heisenberg, Born, Schroedinger and Auger, On Modern Physics and the Nobel lectures of Werner Heisenberg, Erwin Schroedinger and Max Born.In this collection three Nobel laureates and a renowned authority on space exploration discuss a wide range of issues - from lessons that can be learned from the ancient Greek philosophers, to the advancements in fundamental physics in the twentieth century, to the dark implications of scientific discoveries, to the methods and limits of scientific knowledge - in a language that is understandable by a wide audience.

This is a new publication of eight of Schrödinger's "Science, Art and Play""The Law of Chance""Indeterminism In Physics""Is Science a Fashion of the Times?""Physical Science and the Temper of the Age""What is a Law of Nature?""Conceptual Models in Physics and their Philosophical Value""The Fundamental Idea of Wave Mechanics" (Schrödinger's Nobel Address delivered at Stockholm on December 12, 1933)

This is a new publication of the Collected Papers On Wave Mechanics by Erwin Schrödinger - one of the founding fathers of quantum physics.This valuable book should prove attractive to experts, students and all interested in the origin, the foundations and the philosophy of quantum physics. A particular reason for this is that Schrödinger discusses two issues which are still (in the 21st century) unsettled - the physical meaning of the wave function and the statistical nature of quantum physics. Like Einstein, Schrödinger was not satisfied with the statistical description of quantum "The question whether the solution of the difficulty is really to be found only in the purely statistical interpretation of the field theory which has been proposed in several quarters must for the present be left unsettled. Personally I no longer regard this interpretation as a finally satisfactory one, even if it proves useful in practice. To me it seems to mean a renunciation, much too fundamental in principle, of all attempt to understand the individual process."
