| Item Description: | Includes bibliographical references and index On quantum randomness -- - What is light? -- - Relativity and the twin paradox -- - On quantum fields, unified field theory and the meaning of science -- - Positivism, realism and holism in relativity and quantum physics -- - On cosmology: relativity versus quantum physics Mathematics to physics to philosophy -- - Search for truth in science: Einstein versus Bohr -- - Essay on dialogue In this book, important conceptual developments of the two major revolutions of modern physics - the quantum and relativity theories - are presented in a nonmathematical, dialectical form of dialogue. The implications of conflicting philosophical attitudes of these revolutions in physics and applications to topics such as cosmology/astrophysics and high energy physics are emphasized. It is argued that for any substantial progress in our understanding of 21st century physics, it will be necessary to resolve these 20th century conflicts. These richly rewarding dialogues provide a starting point for discussions that could lead to such progress. An epilogue is presented on the philosophical advantage of the dialogue form for increased understanding |
