Condition: New. Idioma/Language: Español. Encuadernación: Rústica Colección: Conjeturas Tras cuatro siglos de divorcio entre la ciencia y lo que se refiere a valores y significados, este libro que abre nuevos horizontes presenta una idea explosiva, de las que pueden cambiar la vida: si el mundo se pusiese de acuerdo en un relato de la creación compartido por todos y basado en la cosmología y la biología modernas --y de un relato así disponemos desde hace poco--, se redefinirían nuestras relaciones con el planeta Tierra y se beneficiaría toda la humanidad, ahora y en el futuro distante. Este libro, escrito en una prosa elocuente y accesible, con ilustraciones en magnífico color a lo largo de toda la obra, entre las que se incluyen imágenes extraídas de simulaciones por superordenador de la evolución del universo, le da vida al nuevo cuadro del universo. Interpreta el significado, para nosotros y nuestros descendientes, de nuestro lugar en el cosmos como seres humanos. Ofrece ideas singulares sobre el uso de estos nuevos conocimientos con el fin de encontrar soluciones a problemas globales que parecen inabordables, como el cambio climático y el crecimiento insostenible. Y explica por qué tenemos que "pensar cósmicamente y actuar globalmente" si queremos tener a largo plazo un futuro próspero en la Tierra. *** Nota: Los envíos a España peninsular, Baleares y Canarias se realizan a través de mensajería urgente.

Condition: Very Good. Très bon état. In-8. 2008. broché. 398 pages. Décryptant les découvertes les plus récentes de l'astronomie et de la physique Joel R. Primack cosmologiste renommé et Nancy Ellen Abrams philosophe et écrivain nous proposent une vision radicalement différente du cosmos : il n'est pas tout là-haut il est ici même ! Pour les auteurs nous sommes la première génération à pouvoir scientifiquement démontrer que l'homme occupe une place centrale dans l'Univers. La cosmologie actuelle qui appréhende l'Univers comme un Tout sait nous dire de quoi ce dernier est fait comment il est né comment il évolue. Les deux auteurs nous expliquent de quelle façon la science la plus sophistiquée à l'image des mythes de jadis replace l'homme au centre du monde : nous sommes composés du matériau le plus rare nous vivons à une époque intermédiaire - à la moitié de la vie de la Terre - notre cerveau et son intelligence sont au sommet de la complexité universelle. Renouant avec d'anciennes métaphores Primack et Abrams ont créé une série de symboles contemporains exprimant ce lien entre l'homme et le cosmos. Quand elle aura finalement lieu la " prise de conscience cosmique " moderne pourrait bien avoir des implications révolutionnaires sur la vision que chacun d'entre nous a de lui-même de la Terre de son futur et de celui de ses enfants. " En comprenant mieux l'Univers nous commençons à mieux nous comprendre nous-mêmes. ". Very Good.

Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. Very Good, plus some; see scans and description. Chicago: Educational Foundation for Nuclear Science,1975. The September, 1975 issue of The Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists, that being Volume 31, Number 7. The famous and historic Doomsday Clock - shown on each cover or title page since 1947, two years after the publication's inception - here shows the time to be nine minutes of midnight as of late 1975. Quarto, illustrated staple-bound wraps, 56 pp. Very Good; original addressee label on front cover, some light soiling to covers; inevitable page-toning within is moderate; no other flaws. A handsome example; see all scans. Established in 1945 by biophysicist Eugene Rabinowitch and physicist Hyman Goldsmith in response to a correctly-perceived demand for nuclear information at the time by the general public, The Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists is without doubt the most historically significant non-technical publication on the subject of "'global security and public policy issues related to the dangers posed by nuclear and other weapons of mass destruction, climate change,[2] and emerging technologies and diseases". Hence, over the years, BAS has become a geopolitical instrument, rather than a nuclear watchdog alone. Feature articles in this vintage 1975 issue: Nuclear Violence; Lawrence Livermore Lab; UN Agencies; Reactor Safety; Uranium Tailings; NPT Review; more. See scan of contents. Contributors include Samuel H. Day Jr. (Editor); Paul R. Ehrlich; Stuart A. Rice; Herbert F.York; Joel Primack; Fred Finlayson; Norman Rasmussen; Robert Weatherwax; Herbert J.C. Kouts; Frank von Hippel; Hans Bethe; David Dinsmore Comey; William Epstein; et al. Very, very scarce as the original monthly softcover issue. Ships in a new, sturdy, protective box - not a bag.
