Werner Heisenberg

This collection contains a new publication of the book: 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.

Available here for the first time in English, "Reality and Its Order" is a remarkable philosophical text by Werner Heisenberg, the father of quantum mechanics and one of the leading scientists of the 20th century. Written during the wartime years and initially distributed only to his family and trusted friends, the essay describes Heisenberg’s philosophical view of how we understand the natural world and our role within it. In this volume, the essay is introduced by the physicist Helmut Rechenberg and annotated by the science historian Ernst Peter Fischer. The content, particularly within its historical context, will be of great interest to many physicists, philosophers and historians of science.

Werner Heisenberg's seventy-year book "Physics and Philosophy" appears for the first time in the "A Series in Philosophy and History of Science in Persian" founded by Hossein Najafizadeh.

Werner Heisenberg gelang der Durchbruch zur modernen Atomtheorie der Quantenmechanik; er entdeckte die sogenannte Unbestimmtheitsrelation, die seinen Lehrer und Freund Niels Bohr zum Komplementaritätsprinzip führte, das eine widerspruchsfreie physikalische Deutung der Quantenmechanik ermöglichte. 1929 trat Heisenberg eine Vortragsreise in die Vereinigten Staaten an. Sie führte ihn zu Vorlesungen über ?Die physikalischen Prinzipien der Quantentheorie? an der Universität Chicago. Diese Vorlesungen werden in dem vorliegenden Band zusammenfassend behandelt. Der Autor wollte mit der Veröffentlichung dazu beitragen, den Kopenhagener Geist der Quantentheorie zu verbreiten.

In this classic treatise, a complete physical picture of quantum theory, the Nobel Laureate covers not only his own far-reaching contributions to quantum theory, but also those of Dirac, Schroedinger, Compton, Wilson, Einstein and others. "An authoritative statement of Heisenberg's views on this aspect of the quantum theory."

Nobel Prize winner Werner Heisenberg's classic account explains the central ideas of the quantum revolution, and his celebrated Uncertainty Principle. Heisenberg reveals how words and concepts familiar in daily life can lose their meaning in the world of relativity and quantum physics.This in turn has profound philosophical implications for the nature of reality.

In nine essays and lectures composed in the last years of his life, Werner Heisenberg offers a bold appraisal of the scientific method in the twentieth century--and relates its philosophical impact on contemporary society and science to the particulars of molecular biology, astrophysics, and related disciplines. Are the problems we define and pursue freely chosen according to our conscious interests? Or does the historical process itself determine which phenomena merit examination at any one time? Heisenberg discusses these issues in the most far-ranging philosophical terms, while illustrating them with specific examples.
