Unter Physikern und Mathematikern sind sie legendär geworden, die Spaziergänge über den Campus von Princeton, die den fast 70-jährigen Albert Einstein und den 25 Jahre jüngeren Ausnahme-Mathematiker Kurt Gödel verbanden. Zwei Spaziergänger, die jeweils ihr Fach revolutioniert, Grenzen überschritten und neue aufgezeigt haben. Gödel hatte schon früh beschlossen, sich nur um mathematische Probleme zu kümmern, die auch eine philosophische Dimension haben. Damit ist er quasi ein Bruder im Geiste für Jim Holt, den Philosophen und Mathematiker, der sich gerne mit den letzten Fragen beschäftigt - und mit jenen, die ihnen ihr Leben widmeten. Und so erzählt er in diesem Buch mit dieser Geschichte einer Freundschaft zugleich die Geschichte der revolutionären geistigen Umwälzungen im 20. Jahrhunderts. Daneben versammelt Holt in diesem Band 22 weitere Erzählungen und Reflexionen, in beeindruckend schöner Sprache und reich an biografischen und kulturgeschichtlichen Anekdoten. Sie widmen sich den "aufregendsten intellektuellen Errungenschaften, denen ich in meinem Leben begegnet bin" (Holt). Es geht darin um das kosmologisches Denken über Zeit und Raum, Unendlichkeit im Großen und Kleinen, das Heraufziehen des Computerzeitalters, den Code des Lebens und die Frage, was man wahr nennen darf. Mal stehen Wissenschaft und Philosophie ein wenig im Vordergrund, mal die außergewöhnlichen Geschichten ihrer bedeutenden Protagonisten, von Holt fesselnd erzählt, mit Tiefgang und Intimität und einem besonderen und persönlichen Blick. «Jim Holt ist einer der wirklich besten Science-Autoren der jüngsten Zeit.» New York Times

Wenn wir die Welt primär als Werkstatt oder als Labor behandeln, angezogen von der Aussicht "Wir werden Götter sein" (Y.N. Harari), verschwindet ihr Geheimnis und damit auch die Wahrnehmung von Resonanz aus der Tiefe. Wer als Mensch jedoch seine Nachdenklichkeit behält und seine Hörfähigkeit vertieft, empfängt Hinweise, Worte, Botschaften der heimlichsten Art, die ein Leben sinnstiftend verändern können. Nötig wäre aber ein geduldiges Umdenken (metánoia), das bis an die Wurzel der abendländischen Geistesgeschichte reicht. Dazu will vorliegende Schrift anregen.

'What is a self and how can a self come out of inanimate matter?' This is the riddle that drove Douglas Hofstadter to write this extraordinary book. In order to impart his original and personal view on the core mystery of human existence - our intangible sensation of 'I'-ness - Hofstadter defines the playful yet seemingly paradoxical notion of 'strange loop', and explicates this idea using analogies from many disciplines.

From Jim Holt, the New York Times bestselling author of Why Does the World Exist?, comes an entertaining and accessible guide to the most profound scientific and mathematical ideas of recent centuries in When Einstein Walked with Gödel: Excursions to the Edge of Thought. Does time exist? What is infinity? Why do mirrors reverse left and right but not up and down? In this scintillating collection, Holt explores the human mind, the cosmos, and the thinkers who’ve tried to encompass the latter with the former. With his trademark clarity and humor, Holt probes the mysteries of quantum mechanics, the quest for the foundations of mathematics, and the nature of logic and truth. Along the way, he offers intimate biographical sketches of celebrated and neglected thinkers, from the physicist Emmy Noether to the computing pioneer Alan Turing and the discoverer of fractals, Benoit Mandelbrot. Holt offers a painless and playful introduction to many of our most beautiful but least understood ideas, from Einsteinian relativity to string theory, and also invites us to consider why the greatest logician of the twentieth century believed the U.S. Constitution contained a terrible contradiction—and whether the universe truly has a future.

Albert Einsteins grundlegende Arbeiten zur Relativitatstheorie Karl von Meyenn Unter der ungewohnlich groBen Anzahl hervorragender Gelehrter und Naturwissenschaftler, die das 20. Jahrhundert in seinem Verlaufe hervor gebracht hat, nimmt Albert Einstein weiterhin eine einzigartige Sonder stellung ein. Seine drei beriihmten Abhandlungen aus dem Jahre 1905, von denen eine die Relativitatstheorie begriindete, hatten ihn innerhalb von wenigen Jahren sprungartig von seiner Berner AuBenseiterstellung in den Mittelpunkt des allgemeinen wissenschaftlichen Lebens der damali gen Zeit versetzt. Internationalen Ruhm erlangte er aber erst durch die Bestatigung seiner aufgrund der allgemeinen Relativitatstheorie vorherge sagten Lichtablenkung im Gravitationsfeld der Sonne, die wahrend einer total en Sonnenfinsternis im Mai 1919 beobachtet werden konnte. Aber schon im September 1906, wahrend der Naturforscherversamm lung in Stuttgart, hatte der angesehenste Physiker des Deutschen Reiches Max Planck Partei fUr die "Lorentz-Einsteinsche Theorie" des deformier baren Elektrons ergriffen. Obwohl die bei dieser Gelegenheit diskutierten Kaufmannschen Ablenkbarkeitsmessungen von Elektronen eher zUgun sten der konkurrierenden Kugel-Theorie des starren Elektrons von Max Abraham (1903) ausgelegt werden konnten, war Planck (1906a) "wegen der groBartigen Vereinfachung aller Probleme der Elektrodynamik" von der Richtigkeit des Einsteinschen Gedankens uberzeugt. Die "experimen telle Bestatigung der Lorentz-Ensteinschen Theorie" wurde dann tatsach lich zwei Jahre spater durch Alfred Bucherer (1908) erbracht.

For the past 140 years, Germany has been the central power in continental europe. Twenty-five years ago a new German state came into being. How much do we really understand this new Germany, and how do its people understand themselves? Neil MacGregor argues that, uniquely for any European country, no coherent, overarching narrative of Germany's history can be constructed, for in Germany both geography and history have always been unstable. Its frontiers have constantly shifted. Königsberg, home to the greatest German philosopher, Immanuel Kant, is now Kaliningrad, Russia; Strasbourg, in whose cathedral Wolfgang von Geothe, Germany's greatest writer, discovered the distinctiveness of his country's art and history, now lies within the borders of France. For most of the five hundred years covered by this book Germany has been composed of many separate political units, each with a distinct history. And any comfortable national story Germans might have told themselves before 1914 was destroyed by the events of the following thirty years. German history may be inherently fragmented, but it contains a large number of widely shared memories, awarenesses, and experiences; examining some of these is the purpose of this book. MacGregor chooses objects and ideas, people and places that still resonate in the new Germany—porcelain from Dresden and rubble from its ruins, Bauhaus design and the German sausage, the crown of Charlemagne and the gates of Buchenwald—to show us something of its collective imagination. There has never been a book about Germany quite like it.

A breakout bestseller in Italy, now available for American readers for the first time, Genesis: The Story of How Everything Began is a short, humanistic tour of the origins of the universe, earth, and life—drawing on the latest discoveries in physics to explain the seven most significant moments in the creation of the cosmos. Curiosity and wonderment about the origins of the universe are at the heart of our experience of the world. From Hesiod’s Chaos, described in his poem about the origins of the Greek gods, Theogony, to today’s mind-bending theories of the multiverse, humans have been consumed by the relentless pursuit of an answer to one awe inspiring question: What exactly happened during those first moments? Guido Tonelli, the acclaimed, award-winning particle physicist and a central figure in the discovery of the Higgs boson (the “God particle”), reveals the extraordinary story of our genesis—from the origins of the universe, to the emergence of life on Earth, to the birth of human language with its power to describe the world. Evoking the seven days of biblical creation, Tonelli takes us on a brisk, lively tour through the evolution of our cosmos and considers the incredible challenges scientists face in exploring its mysteries. Genesis both explains the fundamental physics of our universe and marvels at the profound wonder of our existence.

A groundbreaking system for measuring organizational trustworthiness to determine investment potential "Tremendous! Laura Rittenhouse has delivered again! Investing Between the Lines is destined to become a classic in showing how candor is the language of trust and how trust is the basis on which companies ultimately succeed. I highly recommend this most interesting and insightful book." Stephen M. R. Covey, author of the New York Times and #1 Wall Street Journal bestseller The Speed of Trust and coauthor of Smart Trust In Investing Between the Lines, CEO communications expert, L. J. Rittenhouse offers a proven methodology for accurately analyzing the worthiness of an investment: Reading corporate "fog," i.e., shareholder letters, and other corporate correspondence. Based on a model that's made believers of Warren Buffet and Jack Welch, Rittenhouse looks at the "fog" of 100 Fortune 500 companies—and then overlays these "Fog rankings" on the stock's price performance. It's a system that made Rittenhouse one of the very first to predict the Lehman Bros. implosion, and other financia disasters—and that will arm investors with the skills and knowledge to unearth hidden risks in their portfolios and pick potential winners. L. J. Rittenhouse is president of Rittenhouse Rankings Inc, a CEO strategic and investor relations company that annually conducts a benchmark survey of CEO candor and stock price performance
