Gorbachev xx. Concepts of modern natural science

Name: Concepts of modern natural science.

IN textbook physical principles are outlined that make it possible to explain the living world around us and inanimate nature from the standpoint of modern, including post-nonclassical, physics. General fundamental physical problems of the movement of material objects in the concepts of classical, quantum and relativistic mechanics, the relationship of space and time, models of the origin, evolution and organization of the Universe are considered. The physical foundations of ecology and the role of the biosphere and noosphere in human life and synergetic models in the economy are outlined.
The manual contains Interesting Facts and hypotheses from various fields of physics and technology, biology, chemistry, sociology and other sciences. The book includes self-test questions, an extensive list of references, abstract topics, and a dictionary of terms used in modern natural science.
Intended for undergraduates, graduate students and university teachers. Useful for a wide range of readers interested in the problems of modern natural science.

The course “Concepts of modern natural science” is a synthesis of the wisdom of ancient civilizations, the achievements of the natural and human sciences, paving the way to an understanding of nature, man and society. It covers a wide range of issues and is fundamental, fundamental to all modern education.
One of the main goals of the manual is to involve the reader in the creative process of self-knowledge, to show that without the involvement of science it is impossible to understand one’s purpose on Earth, but at the same time there are still many unknown phenomena that are beyond the control of science. The course is structured in such a way that its study is creative, forming views on the world. Moreover, it perfectly corresponds to the traditions of domestic education with its school of fundamentality and breadth of approach to explaining the essence of things.

2nd ed., rev. and additional - M.: 2005. -672 p.

The textbook outlines physical principles that make it possible to explain the world of living and inanimate nature around us from the standpoint of modern, including post-nonclassical, physics. General fundamental physical problems of the movement of material objects in the concepts of classical, quantum and relativistic mechanics, the relationship of space and time, models of the origin, evolution and organization of the Universe are considered. The physical foundations of ecology and the role of the biosphere and noosphere in human life and synergetic models in the economy are outlined.

The manual contains interesting facts and hypotheses from various fields of physics and technology, biology, chemistry, sociology and other sciences. The book includes self-test questions, an extensive list of references, abstract topics, and a dictionary of terms used in modern natural science.

Intended for undergraduates, graduate students and university teachers. Useful for a wide range of readers interested in the problems of modern natural science.

2nd ed., rev. and additional - M.: 2005. -672 p.

The textbook outlines physical principles that make it possible to explain the world of living and inanimate nature around us from the standpoint of modern, including post-nonclassical, physics. General fundamental physical problems of the movement of material objects in the concepts of classical, quantum and relativistic mechanics, the relationship of space and time, models of the origin, evolution and organization of the Universe are considered. The physical foundations of ecology and the role of the biosphere and noosphere in human life and synergetic models in the economy are outlined.

The manual contains interesting facts and hypotheses from various fields of physics and technology, biology, chemistry, sociology and other sciences. The book includes self-test questions, an extensive list of references, abstract topics, and a dictionary of terms used in modern natural science.

Intended for undergraduates, graduate students and university teachers. Useful for a wide range of readers interested in the problems of modern natural science.
