Product Description
There are prospects for massive reductions in the number of nuclear warheads stockpiled around the world, and the idea of a nuclear-weapon-free world is now possible. This work contends that compliance with a treaty to eliminate nuclear weapons can be achieved by a system of technological verification. One of the book's editors, Joseph Rotblat, won the 1995 Nobel Peace Prize, and the contributors include scientists, economists and political advisers. ... Read more

Product Description

Vividly and in some depth retraces the golden years of particle physics as witnessed by one of the scientists who made seminal contributions to the understanding of what is now known as the Standard Model of particle physics.

It will provide the interested reader with a first-hand account and deeper understanding of the multilayered and sinous development that finally led to the present architecture of this theory.

Combines particle physics with insightful stories about fellow physicists of some note and the political turmoil of his times.

Excerpt: Albert Einstein (pronounced ; German: ; 14 March 187918 April 1955) was a theoretical physicist, philosopher and author who is widely regarded as one of the most influential and best known scientists and intellectuals of all time. He is often regarded as the father of modern physics. He received the 1921 Nobel Prize in Physics "for his services to Theoretical Physics, and especially for his discovery of the law of the photoelectric effect." His many contributions to physics include the special and general theories of relativity, the founding of relativistic cosmology, the first post-Newtonian expansion, explaining the perihelion advance of Mercury, prediction of the deflection of light by gravity and gravitational lensing, the first fluctuation dissipation theorem which explained the Brownian movement of molecules, the photon theory and wave-particle duality, the quantum theory of atomic motion in solids, the zero-point energy concept, the semiclassical version of the Schrödinger equation, and the quantum theory of a monatomic gas which predicted BoseEinstein condensation.

Chapters: People From Bad Kissingen, Oskar Panizza, Jack Steinberger, Claus-Frenz Claussen, Julius Döpfner, Michael Schwab, Jeff Baker, Edmund Veesenmayer, Peter Deeg, Franz Kaspar Hesselbach, Franz Riegel, Osmar R. Zaiane. Source: Wikipedia. Pages: 49. Not illustrated. Free updates online. Purchase includes a free trial membership in the publisher's book club where you can select from more than a million books without charge. Excerpt: Leopold Hermann Oskar Panizza (12 November 1853 28 September 1921) was a German psychiatrist and avant-garde author, playwright, novelist, poet, essayist, publisher and literary journal editor. He is best known for his provocative tragicomedy, Das Liebeskonzil (The Love Council, 1894), for which he served a one-year prison sentence after being convicted in Munich in 1895 on 93 counts of blasphemy. Upon his release from prison, he lived for eight years in exile, first in Zurich and later in Paris. His deteriorating mental health forced him to return to Germany, where he spent his last sixteen years in an asylum in Bayreuth. The scandal-ridden Panizza suffered more than any other German author under the repressive censorship imposed during the reign of Emperor Wilhelm II. Panizza was born in Bad Kissingen, northern Bavaria (Lower Franconia), to Karl (18081855) and Mathilde Panizza, née Speeth (18211915). Karl was descended from a family of Italian fishermen on Lake Como. Mathilde, herself a prolific writer under the pseudonym Siona, was descended from an aristocratic Huguenot family by the name of de Meslère. Oskars four siblings were Maria (18461925), Felix (18481908), Karl (18521916) and Ida (18551922). Religious friction between Oskars parents began even before their marriage. When Oskar was two years old, his Catholic father died of typhoid. On his deathbed, Karl granted Mathilde permission to raise their five children in the Protestant faith, despite the fact that they had all been baptize...More: http://booksllc.net/?id=5849125 ...

Auszug: Die Liste der Ehrenbürgerschaften Otto von Bismarcks führt Ehrenbürgerschaften auf, die Otto von Bismarck (1815-1898) verliehen wurden. Im Zuge der allgemeinen Verehrung seiner Person hatten ihn fünfundvierzig Kommunen bereits zu ihrem Ehrenbürger ernannt, als bekannt wurde, dass der Deutsche Reichstag beabsichtigt, Bismarcks achtzigsten Geburtstag am 1. April 1895 zu ignorieren. Daraufhin machten ihn viele Städte zu Ehrenbürgern, darunter die Mitglieder der im Entstehen begriffenen Städteverbände in geschlossener Form, so der badische, der thüringer und der sächsische. Dabei ergaben sich dort, wo Bismarck die Würde bereits innehatte, Doppelungen. Nach dem 1. April 1895 war Bismarck Ehrenbürger von rund 450 deutschen Städten. ...http://booksllc.net/?l=de&id=4109855 ... Read more
