O knihe
Determinism Is Alive and Well examines the concept of Determinism in the natural and social sciences, in particular quantum and relativistic physics, and history. It purports to show that determinism has not become an obsolete concept, but remains an essential general scientific principle. The author attempts to develop the modern concept of determinism through tentative theories such as quantum logic, a theory of the jump from the quantum to the classic level of matter and the Systemic Information Effect (SIE), and discusses holism and reductionism. It also examines the applicability of determinism and reductionism in the social sciences. Giles R. DeMourot holds a Doctorate in Law (JD), an MBA, a B.Sc. in Pharmacology and a BA in Classical Arabic, all from US Universities. Over the years he has served in the US Government in various capacities, both in the US and overseas. He then joined the private sector, working mainly in Europe including the UK. He now resides in France.
