  • Ultimate Explanations of the Universe

    par Michael Heller ...
    Collections series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    We humans are collectively driven by a powerful - yet not fully explained - instinct to understand. We would like to see everything established, proven, laid bare. The more important an issue, the more we desire to see it clarified, stripped of all secrets, all shades of gray. What could be more important than to understand the Universe and ourselves as a part of it? To find a window onto our ... En savoir plus

    Modifié par György Darvas, E. Agazzi ...
    Collections series Mathematics and Statistics (R0)
    Mathematics is often considered as a body of knowledge that is essen tially independent of linguistic formulations, in the sense that, once the content of this knowledge has been grasped, there remains only the problem of professional ability, that of clearly formulating and correctly proving it. However, the question is not so simple, and P. Weingartner's paper (Language and Coding-Dependency of ... En savoir plus
