书籍简介

"《物理学和哲学》是德国知名物理学家海森伯的一部论述物理学和哲学的论著。书中主要论述了量子力学诞生后对传统认识论造成的颠覆性的冲击，全书篇目大致包括：老传统与新传统；量子论的历史；量子论的哥本哈根解释；量子论和原子科学的渊源；自笛卡尔以来哲学观念的发展和量子论的新形势的比较；量子论和自然科学其他部分的关系；相对论；对哥本哈根学派的批评；量子论和物质结构；现代物理学中的语言和实在；现代物理学在当前人类思想发展中的作用。"

The seminal work by one of the most important thinkers of the twentieth century, Physics and Philosophy is Werner Heisenberg's concise and accessible narrative of the revolution in modern physics, in which he played a towering role. The outgrowth of a celebrated lecture series, this book remains as relevant, provocative, and fascinating as when it was first published in 1958. A brilliant scientist whose ideas altered our perception of the universe, Heisenberg is considered the father of quantum physics; he is most famous for the Uncertainty Principle, which states that quantum particles do not occupy a fixed, measurable position. His contributions remain a cornerstone of contemporary physics theory and application.

作者简介

韦纳尔·卡尔·海森伯（Werner Karl Heisenberg，1901-1976）是当代卓越的理论物理学家和原子物理学家之一。1976年，物理学家维格纳在悼念海森伯的文章中说：“没有一个活着的理论物理学家在这个领域内比他贡献更大。”海森伯是量子力学的创始人之一。 他为原子、原子核、基本粒子物理学的发展奋斗了终生。他是继玻尔之后的哥本哈根学派的主要代表人物。

A winner of the Nobel Prize, Werner Heisenberg (1901–1976) was born in Würzberg, Germany, and received his doctorate in theoretical physics from the University of Munich. He became famous for his groundbreaking Uncertainty (or Indeterminacy) Principle. After World War II he was named director of the Max Planck Institute for Physics and Astrophysics.
