确定性的终结
确定性的终结内容简介
时间,我们存在的基本维度,令艺术家、哲学家和科学家为之陶醉。如今,普利高津在他的新著《确定性的终结》中,向广大读者呈现他与自然之经典描述的彻底决裂。在本书中,他通过考察西方的时间观,引导我们经历一种奇妙的智力探险--从古希腊出发,经过牛顿轨道和确定性混沌,到达量子理论与“免费午餐”宇宙学统一表述的高度。这本分水岭式著作表明,确定性的终结是科学与文化之自然法则全新的诞生。
热门摘录
Irreversible processes are creating entropy.
Life, concludes Schrodinger, feeds on a “negative entropy flow”. The more important point, however, is that life is associated with entropy production and therefore with irreversible processes.
Indeed, bifurcations can be considered the source of diversification and innovation.
All arrows of time in nature have the same orientation: They all produce entropy in the same direction of time, which is by definition the future.
