Unstable Nature Order Entropy Becoming

Unstable Nature Order Entropy Becoming

Unstable Nature is a popular science book offering a journey through the concept of instability in modern science with a focus on physics. Conceived for the curious reader wishing to go deeper in the fascinating and not yet popularised world of instabilities it provides an immersion into paradoxical and unexpected phenomena - some of which hides in plain sight in our daily lives. The book is written without technical jargon and new concepts and terminology needed for the narrative are introduced gradually based on examples taken from accessible everyday life. The chapters are connected through a path that starts from exploring instabilities at the planetary scale and then passes through a description of unstable dynamics in macroscopic settings such as in human mechanical artifacts fluid waves animal skin vegetation structures and chemical reactions finally reaching the sub atomic scale and the biological processes of human thought. Before concluding with some general philosophical remarks a modern landscape about the possibility of seeing instabilities not only as a detrimental effect but as resources to be harnessed for technology is explored. The book is enriched by a variety of professional anecdotes stemming from the direct research experience of the author. It features numerous connections of scientific concepts presented with other branches of the human experience and knowledge including philosophy engineering history of science biology chemistry mathematics and computer science poetry and meditation. Key Features: Presents an exciting introduction to the topic which is accessible to those without a scientific background Explores milestone discoveries in the history of the concept of instability in physics Contains anecdotes of key figures from the field including James C. Maxwell Alan Turing Vladimir Zakharov Edward Lorenz Enrico Fermi and Mary Tsingou | Unstable Nature Order Entropy Becoming
