大轉折：百年科學匯流史，扭轉人類文明的關鍵融合

Convergence: The Idea at the Heart of Science

Translated by 蔡承志 ...

Series series Big Ideas
現代文明最重要、最複雜、最難以述說的一段歷史。左右人類命運的，不是神，而是科學大轉折！史詩般壯闊、細膩交錯編織的科學發展史。人類極其渺小，卻造就出了科學這龐大、無限的神廟。未來的科學，勢必要突破各領域的區分與限制，本書正是最佳寫照科學從來不在單一軌道上運行發展，而是編織在一塊、並時發展的宏大敘事。擅長書寫繁複、龐雜脈絡大歷史的彼得•沃森，藉由焦點人物、事件、學科間的碰撞，擘畫出科學發展史上點、線、面交錯纏繞且相輔相成的進程。科學並非各領域獨立發展，而是跨領域連續不斷的交會、整合。1850年代的關鍵十年，正是物理、化學等領域的飛躍性發展的最開端。能量守恆首次為人公認，熱力學、光學、電學、磁學等學門的新近發展獲得整合，達爾文的演化論也彙整了天文、地質、古生物學、人類學、地理學和生物學。而這十年的經驗也是一次... ...
