From Strange Simplicity to Complex Familiarity
EN NWISBN: 9780198570219 bzw. 019857021X, in Englisch, Oxford University Press, Vereinigtes Königreich Großbritannien und Nordirland, neu.
This book presents a vivid argument for the almost lost idea of a unity of all natural sciences. It starts with the "strange" physics of matter, including particle physics, atomic physics and quantum mechanics, cosmology, relativity and their consequences (Chapter I), and it continues by describing the properties of material systems that are best understood by statistical and phase-space concepts (Chapter II). These lead to entropy and to the classical picture of quantitative information, initially devoid of value and meaning (Chapter III). Finally, "information space" and dynamics within it are introduced as a basis for semantics (Chapter IV), leading to an exploration of life and thought as new problems in physics (Chapter V). Dynamic equations - again of a strange (but very general) nature - bring about the complex familiarity of the world we live in. Surprising new results in the life sciences open our eyes to the richness of physical thought, and they show us what can and what cannot be explained by a Darwinian approach. The abstract physical approach is applicable to the origins of life, of meaningful information and even of our universe.

This book presents a vivid argument for the almost lost idea of a unity of all natural sciences. This unity engenders the complex familiarity of the world in which we live and which can be described in strangely simple theoretical terms, leading to surprising new insights into the mysterious phenomenon of life.
