Principle of suspicion

Product description

The principle of uncertainty (Einstein, Heisenberg, Bohr, and the struggle for the spirit of science) by David Lindley ... the author presents the problems that appeared in physics starting from the problem of Brownian motion and its interpretation up to the acknowledgment of the validity of the principle of uncertainty among physicists. During this, the book takes us through very important stations in the lives of physicists that paved the way for the breakthrough, starting from the discovery of X-rays by Röntgen, passing through Planck's hypothesis and Einstein's paper, up to the principle of uncertainty or the principle of indeterminacy by its owner Werner Heisenberg, which states the impossibility of knowing the speed and direction or the position of the electron very accurately at the same time. It is true that you can measure the speed accurately or measure the "location" accurately, but each separately, so you cannot — according to the principle of uncertainty — measure both speed and position accurately at the same time.
