Book Synopsis Satyendra Nath Bose by : Satyendranath Bose
Download or read book Satyendra Nath Bose written by Satyendranath Bose and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2009 with total page 513 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Satyendra Nath Bose has become a legendary figure of science in the 20th century in India with his revolutionary discovery on the nature of radiation. Despite the association with Einstein, however, little is known about him outside of India. This book highlights the remarkable intellect and the extraordinary personality of Bose set against the backdrop of a rich Bengali cultural tradition and British-Indian politics. Unlike other books covering the significance of Bose's discovery, this book describes his diverse scientific contributions to India's scientific community by bringing together selected articles and addresses by Bose as well as contributions from some well-known scientists on the many-faceted life of Bose, thus making it a truly unique volume.

Book Synopsis Creativity from the Periphery by : Deepanwita Dasgupta
Download or read book Creativity from the Periphery written by Deepanwita Dasgupta and published by University of Pittsburgh Press. This book was released on 2021-06-15 with total page 339 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Science is usually knownbyits most successful figures and resource-rich institutions. In stark contrast, Creativity from the Peripherydraws our attention to unknown figures in science—those who remain marginalized, even neglected, within its practices. Researchers in early twentieth-century colonial India, for example, have made significant contributions to the stock of scientific knowledge and have provided science with new breakthroughs and novel ideas, but to little acclaim. As Deepanwita Dasgupta argues, sometimes the best ideas in science are born from difficult and resource-poor conditions. Inthis study,she turns our attention to these peripheral actors, shedding new light on how scientific creativity operates in lesser-known, marginalized contexts, and how the work of self-trained researchers, though largely ignored , has contributed to important conceptual shifts. Her book presents a new philosophical framework for understanding this peripheral creativity in science through the lens of trading zones—where knowledge is exchanged between two unequal communities—and explores the implications for the future diversity of transnational science.

Book Synopsis Einstein and the Quantum by : A. Douglas Stone
Download or read book Einstein and the Quantum written by A. Douglas Stone and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2015-10-06 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The untold story of Albert Einstein's role as the father of quantum theory Einstein and the Quantum reveals for the first time the full significance of Albert Einstein's contributions to quantum theory. Einstein famously rejected quantum mechanics, observing that God does not play dice. But, in fact, he thought more about the nature of atoms, molecules, and the emission and absorption of light—the core of what we now know as quantum theory—than he did about relativity. A compelling blend of physics, biography, and the history of science, Einstein and the Quantum shares the untold story of how Einstein—not Max Planck or Niels Bohr—was the driving force behind early quantum theory. It paints a vivid portrait of the iconic physicist as he grappled with the apparently contradictory nature of the atomic world, in which its invisible constituents defy the categories of classical physics, behaving simultaneously as both particle and wave. And it demonstrates how Einstein's later work on the emission and absorption of light, and on atomic gases, led directly to Erwin Schrödinger's breakthrough to the modern form of quantum mechanics. The book sheds light on why Einstein ultimately renounced his own brilliant work on quantum theory, due to his deep belief in science as something objective and eternal.

Book Synopsis Weird Scientists the Creators of Quantum Physics by : Jeffrey Strickland
Download or read book Weird Scientists the Creators of Quantum Physics written by Jeffrey Strickland and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2011-09-04 with total page 570 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Weird Scientists is a sequel to Men of Manhattan. As I wrote the latter about the nuclear physicists who brought in the era of nuclear power, quantum mechanics (or quantum physics) was unavoidable. Many of the contributors to the science of splitting the atom were also contributors to quantum mechanics. Atomic physics, particle physics, quantum physics, and even relativity are all interrelated. This book is about the men and women who established the science that shook the foundations of classical physics, removed determinism from measurement, and created alternative worlds of reality. The book introduces fundamental concepts of quantum mechanics, roughly in the order they were discovered, as a launching point for describing the scientist and the work that brought forth the concepts.

Book Synopsis The Privatisation of Higher Education in Postcolonial Bangladesh by : Ariful H. Kabir
Download or read book The Privatisation of Higher Education in Postcolonial Bangladesh written by Ariful H. Kabir and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-05-16 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book problematises contemporary realities of the political dimension of the privatisation of higher education in Bangladesh. By exploring the complexities of neoliberalism as an economic and ideological doctrine, a mode of governance, and as a policy package, it considers the ‘post’ attached to and hyphenated with ‘colonialism’ as more aspirational than achieved. Based on an interdisciplinary study involving contemporary theories from political and social sciences, economics, and the socio-economics of education, the book explores the unique ways in which Bangladeshi higher education has evolved over the past four decades, and the complex politics behind its privatisation. Through an empirically based account of how neoliberalism has worked its way through the higher education sector in the fastest growing economy in the South Asian context, it discusses how changes have been characterised by policy reforms, massification, and a sustained friction between control and autonomy in the university sector. The authors take a nuanced approach to their geo-political and onto-epistemological positionalities as diasporic and hybridised scholars by rejecting epistemological exclusion inherent in the colonial present and research conducted in such contexts. This position allows the reinforcement of a colonial present, theorising from within Global South decolonial and postcolonial research literature. This book contributes to discourses of ‘globalisation from above’ and ‘globalisation from below’ and sheds light on the often-idiosyncratic ways in which higher education reform has unfolded in South Asia. It will be of interest to comparative educators and those researching higher education policy and education developments in Global South nations.

Book excerpt: This book is a tribute to the multi-faceted genius, Dr. Homi Jehangir Bhabha, the visionary scientist and the architect of India's nuclear energy program. Dr. Bhabha, endowed with versatile talents, played a crucial role in steering modern science in India towards new horizons. It is due to his foresight that research is now progressing not only in physics but also in various other fields of science, such as electronics, space science, radio astronomy, and molecular biology. However, Dr. Bhabha's interests and brilliance were not confined to any limits. He was a great visionary, institution builder, administrator, art and beauty enthusiast, and a lover of nature. The unprecedented progress in the scientific and technological development of the country during his tenure of just twenty-five years can be attributed to his work style, diligence, and impactful personality. This book is for those who have a keen desire to acquire knowledge. It not only presents the biography of Bhabha but also provides detailed information about his research works in a lucid and enlightening language. It is hoped that this book will succeed in igniting a passion for science among people of all age groups, especially becoming a guiding and inspiring source for the new generation in India.
