A Many-Colored Glass: Reflections on the Place of Life in the Universe (Page-Barbour Lectures) Год выпуска: 2010Автор: Freeman J. DysonИздательство: Страниц: 162ISBN: 0813929733Описание "A Many-Colored Glass" does not attempt to bring together all of the celebrated physicist's thoughts on science and technology into a unified theory. The emphasis is, instead, on the myriad ways in which the universe presents itself to us - and how, as observers and participants in its processes, we respond to it. Taken from Freeman Dyson's recent public lectures - delivered to audiences with no specialized knowledge in hard sciences - the book begins with a consideration of the practical and political questions surrounding biotechnology. As he seeks how best to explain the place of life in the universe, Dyson then moves from the ethical to the purely scientific. The book concludes with an attempt to understand the implications of biology for philosophy and religion.
