Download or read book Freezing Physics written by Dirk van Delft and published by History of Science and Scholar. This book was released on 2007 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1908, Heike Kamerlingh Onnes (1853–1926) liquefied helium for the first time, briefly rendering his Dutch laboratory "the coldest place on earth." Freezing Physics is the first book to tell the story of Leiden University’s famed cryogenics laboratory and the man behind it, whose scientific accomplishments earned him the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1913.The central question in this book is how Kamerlingh Onnes was able to succeed so brilliantly in developing his cryogenics laboratory – undoubtedly an exceptional feat in terms of its scale and its almost industrial approach in the Netherlands of the last quarter of the nineteenth century. A related question is what determined his success – his abilities as a scientist, his organisational talent, or his personality?This fascinating portrayal of Kamerlingh Onnes, the man and the scientist, traces his storied career from his first experiments with helium to his later work that opened up unexplored territories of extreme cold, magnetism, and thermodynamics — and cleared the path for the eventual discovery of superconductivity in 1911. Dirk van Delft studied physics at the Kamerlingh Onnes Laboratory. He is director of Museum Boerhaave for the History of Science and Medicine in Leiden and professor in the history of science at Leiden University.

Download or read book Bibliographia Cartesiana written by Gregor Sebba and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 1964-07-31 with total page 536 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers a new type of working tool for Cartesian studies. It presents the literature of the last 160 years in alphabetical order (Part Two), combined with a systematic analytical survey (Part One) and a detailed topical index to the whole (Part Three). This organization makes it possible to turn bibliogra phy from a repository of references into a workshop of research. The system atic survey of Part One and the topical index of Part Three, together, offer a mise au point of Descartes studies over their full historical and topical range. The results have often been surprising and illuminating to the author, and if his experience is any guide, the reader, too, will begin to wonder about certain seemingly well-settled points, or marvel at the Protean shapes which our elusive philosopher assumes when mighty commentators force him to reveal his true nature. A work which has been in the making for fifteen years must show the traces of expansion in scope, and changes in evaluation. Bibliographia cartesiana amends my Descartes chapter in A Critical Bibliography of French Literature, v. 3, 1961 (see no. I9a), and supersedes an earlier version of Parts One and Two, published in 1959 under the main title Descartes and his Philosophy, v. 1 (set: no. I8a). Part I (Introduction to Descartes Studies) divides the field into eleven broad areas.

Download or read book I Have Only Myself to Blame written by Elizabeth Bibesco and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-02-21 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: WE TRUST we are not laying ourself open to misconception when we describe Margot Asquith's daughter, the Princess A. Bibesco, as a chip off the old block for so we gather from a perusal of her volume of stories called "I Have Only Myself to Blame." Mamma Margot, you will recall, recently threw all the small town spinsters into a flurry of haste to get her shocking memoirs from the public Library. We notice it is still one of the six "non-fiction" books most in demand. (We were never quite certain about classing it as "non-fiction.") Now follows the daughter, who is the wife of the Roumanian Minister to these United States, with a collection of tales that other daughters should not permit their mothers to read without first explaining Things to them, for mothers are usually ignorant of the Facts of Life; and that the virginal sparrows who hop so eagerly over the lintels of New England public libraries looking for intellectual crumbs will probably read with delicious horror and profound misunderstanding. For these sketches-they are hardly stories in the true sense, but fleeting episodes, hints, suggestions, out of the eternal drama of Sex-are as sophisticated as a Schnitzler play. Indeed, if Elizabeth Asquith could write a little better, she could easily create a female "Anatole"; she has the wit, the observation, and the world-weary preoccupation with sex, characteristic of an outworn aristocracy. Consider her heroine who is wooed tenderly, amid the iris blooms, with reverent kisses on the hands, while she dreams of a roughneck behind a long cigar, who takes her masterfully up to a hotel bedroom with a brass bed. Or consider the wife at the end of the first year, who-but perhaps we needn't consider her just now. There will be plenty of readers who will consider her with a smirk or a leer. But that is not the way. Actually, there is something profoundly pathetic about this book, pathetic because its erotic note is so psychologically true, its "nerves" so real. It shows the point to which Mr. Shaw's "Horseback Hall" had sunk, in its old-world ease of privilege and sophistication. Read this book, and then read Hamlin Garland's "Daughter of the Middle Border," and you will learn more about the difference between Europe and America than a year of travel could teach you. -The Judge, Vol. 82 [1922]

Download or read book The Dream of Descartes written by Gregor Sebba and published by . This book was released on 1987 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The late Gregor Sebba was fond of describing his monumental Bibliographia Cartesiana: A Critical Guide to the Descartes Literature, 1800-1960 as a by-product of his research begun in 1949 for an article he had in mind titled The Dream of Descartes. The bibliography has been indispensable to Descartes scholars since its appearance in 1964. When Sebba died in 1985, his manuscript for The Dream of Descartes was still unfinished. Here, with materials provided by Aníbal A. Bueño, Richard H. Popkin, and Helen Sebba, Richard A. Watson presents the completed work based on a 1973 draft, letters, outlines, and other manuscript material. The result is a fascinating analysis of Descartes' dreams as seminal in the creative process of genius.

Book excerpt: This story examines Peer's yearning for knowledge. In this novel, Peer is shoved around from foster home to foster home. Interestingly, Peer exemplifies immense tenacity in conquering his social and economic circumstances. An encounter with his birth father, a man of highly regarded military rank and wealth, brings hope by agreeing to provide sufficient funds regularly to ensure Peer's social advancement. However, following his father's unexpected death, the estate's legal heirs severed all financial ties to him. He decides to commit himself to the goal of education, despite the pitifully small funds available to him through his labor, and even invites his impoverished half-sister, Louise, to live with him in his home, which is little more than a hovel. Will Peer achieve his goal?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When it was published in 1543, Copernicus's new astronomy had an enormous impact on intellectual life in early modern Europe, but the reception of his new ideas differed fundamentally from one country to another. Rienk Vermij discusses how—unlike in Roman Catholic lands—discussion in the heavily Calvinist Dutch Republic was initially dominated by humanist scholars who judged Copernicus's work on its mathematical merits. Yet even in this environment, it could not escape eventual philosophical, religious, and political controversies. This book shows how Copernicus's astronomy changed from an alternative cosmology into an established worldview in the Dutch Republic.
