埃尔温·薛定谔(1887-1961),奥地利物理学家。20世纪的前30年中物理学经历了一次大革命,解决了微观运动的基本规律问题。薛定谔生活在这个时代,1926年他提出了波动力学,是量子力学的标准形式之一。薛定谔因此而获得诺贝尔奖。后来他的兴趣转向生命科学,1943年写的《生命是什么》,为分子生物学的诞生作了概念上的准备。
Nobel laureate Erwin Schrodinger's What is Life? is one of the great science classics of the twentieth century. A distinguished physicist's exploration of the question which lies at the heart of biology, it was written for the layman, but proved one of the spurs to the birth of molecular biology and the subsequent discovery of the structure of DNA. The philosopher Karl Popper hailed it as a 'beautiful and important book' by 'a great man to whom I owe a personal debt for many exciting discussions'. It appears here together with Mind and Matter, his essay investigating a relationship which has eluded and puzzled philosophers since the earliest times. Schrodinger asks what place consciousness occupies in the evolution of life, and what part the state of development of the human mind plays in moral questions. Brought together with these two classics are Schrodinger's autobiographical sketches, published and translated here for the first time. They offer a fascinating fragmentary account of his life as a background to his scientific writings, making this volume a valuable additon to the shelves of scientist and layman alike.
因为最近看了两本书都提到熵的问题,联想到“911世茂坍塌”后也有人提到这个问题。所以就从这点出发做了个PPT,把里面的东西摘成一个评论吧。 Less entropy, more energy ◎What is entropy? -Nature tends from order to disorder in an isolated systems. ◎Entropy and o...
评分 评分非常非常值得一读,如果对生命做过思考,如果对思维和意识感到好奇,这本书开启了一扇窗。拿到书之后立刻读了一半,只需要基本的物理学化学和生物学知识就可以读,同时把这三门知识从生命的角度串到了一起,有一种豁然开朗的感觉。唯独翻译实在是太差,另外有些知识已经过时,...
评分 评分负熵只是猜想,一些事实它也解释不了,薛定谔自己对此都犹豫不决,其实这种观点之所以让人过目不忘,在于它十分大胆、新颖,几乎可以说是对思想的强烈冲击,它对内心的震撼甚至超过观点本身。 我倒觉得本书最精彩的地方,就是那个著名的、里程碑式的观点——遗传密码子,它几...
negative entropy
评分喜欢结尾处的人生回忆
评分第3次读这本书,觉得自己的英文和逻辑比以前大有长进;必然还要重读的,等图书馆的预约,怎么最近读这本书的人那么多= =
评分The book that inspired the discovery of DNA.
评分我感觉第二部分有点难懂,很值得对自然科学有兴趣的人看的一本科普!
