Add to basketCondition: Wie neu. Deutsche Erstausgabe. 268 (4) Seiten mit vielen Abbildungen. 22 cm. Umschlaggestaltung: Christian Hahn. Sehr guter Zustand. Neuwertiges Exemplar. Ungelesen. Eine Ameise ist dumm, tausend Ameisen sind genial Was hat das Schwarmverhalten von Tieren mit unserem Postboten oder sozialen Netzwerken wie Twitter zu tun? Len Fisher erklärt anschaulich wie kein anderer, wo wir die Intelligenz der Vielen im Alltag finden und wie sie funktioniert. Fisch- oder Vogelschwärme bewegen sich in verblüffenden Formationen. Jedes Tier hat seinen Platz, gelenkt durch unsichtbare Gesetzmäßigkeiten. Bienenschwärme peilen scheinbar wie von selbst die pollenreichste Blumenwiese an. Ameisen arbeiten nach so außerordentlich differenzierten Strukturen, dass Forscher die Ameisenkolonie mit einem Superhirn vergleichen. Unsere Begeisterung für die Schönheit komplexer Systeme in der Natur kommt nicht von ungefähr, sagt Len Fisher: Wir bewundern sie, weil wir uns selbst nach den gleichen Prinzipien organisieren. Fisher durchleuchtet den menschlichen Alltag und findet Schwarmintelligenz überall: bei. - From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia: Leonard Ross Fisher OAM (born 1942) is an Australian physicist, and visiting senior research fellow at the University of Bristol, UK. He is known for his research into everyday topics, such as the optimal way to dunk a biscuit, and the optimum use of cheese in a cheese sandwich. Education: Fisher received a BSc in chemistry and pure mathematics, and an MSc in radiation chemistry from the University of Sydney. He has a PhD in physics of surfaces from the University of New South Wales. Career: Fisher has been a visiting senior research fellow in the school of physics at the University of Bristol since 1992. Research: In 1998, Fisher published a study on the optimal way to dunk a biscuit. The study concluded that 10 times more flavour is released from a biscuit if it has first been dunked in a hot drink. This research was funded by McVities. In 2000, Fisher studied the absorption of gravy by a roast dinner. He found that 700,000 litres of gravy is wasted every week in the UK when it is poured on food and not consumed. He also calculated a gravy absorption index, and published a set of rules to maximise the absorption of gravy by food. Following on from this work, in 2001, he researched the best bread to absorb gravy with, concluding that ciabatta soaks up the most. In 2003, Fisher produced a report for the British Cheese Board, titled "Optimum Use of Cheese in a Cheese Sandwich". He found that the optimum thickness for the filling in a cheese sandwich is dependent on the type of cheese used, and that the sandwich should be made with a light spread of butter or margarine to enhance the flavour of the cheese. This research has drawn criticism for being 'frivolous'. Sprache: Deutsch Gewicht in Gramm: 475 Grasgrüner Pappband mit schwarzgeprägten Rückentiteln und Schutzumschlag.
