Calaprice, Alice

The new quotable Einstein	Princeton University Press, 2005	ISBN: 0691120749
'To punish me for my contempt of authority fate has made me an authority myself'. Such was Einstein's view on the desire of people to know his views on every subject under (and over) the sun. I'm not sure I agree with the idea of mining Einstein's words for nuggets of wisdom - it looks like he wasn't too happy with it - but I have to say that it is useful to have quotes from such a well known figure at hand. This book is very handy for such a use. It has a large number of quotes of the great man, and is well laid out, making it easy to find quotes on a particular topic. Continued..

Callen, Herbert B

Thermodynamics and an introduction to thermostatistics

Wiley, 1985

ISBN: 0471862568

Mentioned in

Absolute zero

Most people learning thermodynamics probably want to do so for practical reasons. My feeling is that the subject is important from a philosophical point of view. Thermodynamics, and an introduction to thermostatistics by H.B. Callen is suitable for those with either view, since it gives a solid grounding in thermodynamics, but always keeping in mind the deeper questions of the subject. Part I of the book deals with classical thermodynamics - unlike most such books which emphasise the microscopic explanation of the subject. Part II, on statistical mechanics, gets on to this aspect of thermodynamics. Part III is a short section on foundational questions. Continued..

Capra, Fritjof

The Web of Life	Flamingo, 1996	ISBN: 0006547516
People have always speculated on the nature of life, and on how living things differ from inanimate objects. In The Web of Life Fritjof Capra approaches the question using some of the new scientific ideas which have arisen in the last few decades such as chaos and complexity theory. He identifies the need to find the structure, pattern and process involved in living things. Structure is based on dissipative structures, as described by Ilya Prigogene . Capra's ideas for pattern and process are based on those of Humberto Maturana and Francisco Varela, with pattern arising from autopoesis, and cognition being the process of life. Continued..

Carroll, Lewis

Euclid and his modern rivals	Dover Publications, 1973	ISBN: 0486229688
Lewis Carroll is known all over the world for his Alice books. But he also produced mathematical works under his real name of Charles Dodgson. For this work he uses his pseudonym, and indeed it is a peculiar hybrid of mathematical discussion and nonsense writing. It's written as a play - I very much doubt that it's ever been performed - and criticises the attempts that were being made at the time to dethrone Euclid's Elements from its acceptance as the textbook for the teaching of geometry. Dedicated fans of Lewis Carroll might might be interested in reading it, as well as those interested in his psychological state, but I can't recommend it for general readership. Continued..

Carson, Rachel

The sea around us	Oxford University Press, 1950	ISBN: 0195069978
The middle of the 20th century was an groundbreaking time for the scientific study of the seas, with an increasing ability to explore their depths, as well as new knowledge from geology and biology. Rachel Carson's The sea around us allows the reader to participate in some of the excitement of this time. Of course, many of the topics are no longer new, but this classic work is very much still worth reading for Carson's unique 'word picture' descriptions, and her deep love of the seas which it demonstrates.

Cartwright, Nancy

How the laws of physics lie	Clarendon Press, 1983	ISBN: 0198247001
Most scientists are satisfied if the laws they use agree reasonably well with experiments, but philosophers look at the trickier questions of whether those laws are true in any sense. Nancy Cartwright takes the intruiging position that the theoretical models which are used in physics describe something real, but the fundamental laws which supposedly underlie those models do not. The book is aimed at philosophers of science, but it has plenty of concrete examples and so will also be of interest to scientists who want to look deeper into what underlies their subject, especially chapters 5 on phenomological laws and chapter 9 on the measurement problem of quantum theory.

Chaitin, Gregory

Meta Math!:The Quest for Omega

Atlantic Books, 2005

ISBN: 1843545241

Mentioned in

Gdel's incompleteness theorem

Gregory Chaitin has done significant work on how computability is limited by complexity. In Meta Math!:The Quest for Omega he gives an account of some of his work aimed at the non-specialist reader. The book starts with his early fascination with Gödel's incompleteness theorem as well as his interest in computing, and in particular the LISP programming language. He explains how several of the philosophical ideas which seem to have arisen with the advent of the computer age, such as the universe being built out of information, were in fact thought of by Leibniz several centuries before.

The conscious mind

Oxford University Press

ISBN: 0195117891

Mentioned in

Consciousness

Chalmers spends some time convincing us of the logical possibility of zombies, and shows that this entails a parallelist viewpoint. Unlike mosts parallelists, he does see the severe problems, and attempts to answer them. He reviews other arguments concerning the philosophy of mind without the book becoming too long or difficult.

Chapman, Allan

Mary Somerville and the world of science	Canopus	ISBN: 0953786846
Mary Somerville was an influential figure in nineteenth century science, but the story of her life isn't as well known as one might expect. In this book Allan Chapman helps to spread the word about this example of that peculiarly British phenomenon, the Grand Amateur in science. It isn't simply a biography, it also introduces the reader to what was happening in the scientific community at the time, and one appreciates Chapman's wide knowledge of the history of science. The books seems rather short, but Chapman manages to pack in a lot of information, in his own highly readable style. Continued..

The First Chimpanzee

Penguin, 2001

ISBN: 0140294813

Co-author

Gribbin,John

The descent of humans from the apes is well known, but in The First Chimpanzee:In search of Human Origins the authors claim that the established view needs considerable modification. Firstly, they find the evidence for a split from chimpanzees and gorillas less than 5 million years ago so overwhelming that they wonder why anyone still argues for an earlier split of up to 20 million years ago. More speculatively, they claim that the last common ancestor might have had many human characteristics, such as walking upright, which the other apes have lost. Continued..

Walking on Eggs

Little, Brown, 2001

ISBN: 0316854891

Co-author

Dingus,Lowell

Many people must have dreamed of having a career as a palaeontologist - going to exotic places and discovering new dinosaur fossils. Walking on Eggs, by Luis Chiappe and Lowell Dingus, is the story of a group of scientists who did just that. It tells the story of the discovery in 1997 of a large number of dinosaur egg fossils in Patagonia. There are plenty of details about the trials and tribulations of travel in a remote area, and of excavating the eggs for further research. It's well worth reading if you want an insight into how such discoveries are actually made. Continued..

Clark, Stuart

Life on other worlds and how to find it	Springer, 2000	ISBN: 185233097X
The possibility of life elsewhere in the universe is one that fascinates many of us. In Life on other worlds and how to find it Stuart Clark provides a well written introduction to exobiology. The book is easy to read, but covers a considerable area of the subject. He starts with a chapter looking at the assumptions we need to make in order to give serious consideration to the question of life elsewhere. The next 4 chapters look at how life arose on earth, starting with the thermodynamics of the universe and moving on to the origin of the elements, and the evolution of DNA based life. Continued..

Clay, Roger

Cosmic Bullets	Allen & Unwin, 1997	ISBN: 1864482044
Cosmic rays have been something of a puzzle since they were discovered at the start of the 20^th Century. In Cosmic Bullets Roger Clay and Bruce Dawson describe the work that has been done to try to solve this puzzle. The book has plenty of interesting information about cosmic rays, but I felt that it didn't have the buzz that it could have done. I thought the authors could have done more to some of the excitement of working in the field, and to indicate how explaining cosmic rays was an important part of cosmology in the 1930-1960 period. So you should read this book if you want to find out about cosmic rays, but I wouldn't particularly recommend it as recreational reading. Continued..

Clegg, Brian

The Man who Stopped Time	Sutton, 2007	ISBN: 9870750948630
Moving pictures are one of the main things that define the coming of the modern age, but the name of the first person to project a moving image is seldom heard. In The Man Who Stopped Time: The Illuminating Story of Eadweard Muybridge, Brian Clegg looks at the life of this man, and at why he is less well known than he should be. Muybridge quickly progressed in his photographic career, but when his wife had a baby, he discovered that he wasn't the father - it was in fact a charmer called Harry Larkyns. Muybridge sought out Larkyns and shot him dead - which should have meant the death penalty for Muybridge, but somehow the jury took his side and he was freed. Continued..

Close, Frank

The Void	Oxford University Press, 2007	ISBN: 9780199225903
In ancient times philosophers wondered whether it was possible to have a part of space with absolutely nothing in it. Aristotle decided that it was not - Nature abhors a vacuum. When Frank Close was young he also wondered whether nothingness was possible. In The Void he tells the reader how people have answered this question. He explains how it was found that a vacuum could be produced with a sufficiently good air pump. But then people began to wonder how light and gravity was transmitted through such a vacuum, and invented the luminiferous aether. Continued..

The Triumph of Numbers	Norton, 2006	ISBN: 0393328708
The modern state keeps track of a great deal of information about its people - how many there are, what illnesses they suffer from and what goods they produce. In The Triumph of Numbers I.B. Cohen traces how this massive use of statistics came about. It starts with a discussion of the building of the pyramids, but most of the book is concerned with the widespread adoption of statistical methods in the seventeenth to nineteenth centuries. The history of statistics may not seem like a particularly interesting subject, but Cohen's book is surprisingly readable even if it's unlikely to make the bestseller lists. Continued..

Cohen, Jack

The collapse of chaos	Penguin, 1994	ISBN: 9780140291254
The aim of science is to explain what goes on in the world using the simplest underlying rules. But chaos theory shows how simple rules can lead to complex behaviour, whilst complexity science shows how relatively simple behaviour can emerge from complex systems. The combination of these should lead us to question whether the simplicities we deduce about the world should really be used as evidence for a simple underlying mechanism. This is the subject of The Collapse of Chaos by Jack Cohen and Ian Stewart. The book has information about fractals, theories of everything and such, but much of it looks at DNA and the part it plays in determining the nature of living things. Continued..

The Theory of knowledge	Hodder and Stoughton, 2002	ISBN: 0340804823
I often feel that philosophy books are too wordy, and I look out for books which are formatted in a way which is more helpful to the reader. The theory of knowledge is such a book, with plenty of use of tables and bullet points to get the information across. Although to some extent it's a crib for those studying for philosophy A-level and in particular those with Descartes' Meditations as a set book, it would also be useful to anyone wishing for an introduction to Descartes' work or to the philosophy of knowledge. I also feel that other authors who are trying to put forward a philosophical argument would do well to look at the way such arguments are presented in this book. Continued..

Pinch,Trevor

I first read The Golem by Harry Collins and Trevor Pinch some years ago, and at the time I thought of it as a useful warning against dogmatism in science. However, on re-reading it, knowing more about the issues involved, I'm not so sure - it's Collins and Pinch who seem to be dogmatic. They set up a strawman version of science composed of certainty, which they then proceed to knock down. This book is certainly an interesting read - cold fusion, spontaneous generation and solar neutrinos are just three of the subjects looked at. However I would advise caution against taking the authors' claims too seriously. Continued..

Comte-Sponville, Andre

The little book of philosophy	Vintage, 2005	ISBN: 0099450186
Philosophy is a vast subject and to write a small book encompassing a significant part of it seems to be an impossible task. It has been achieved in this work by writing twelve books, each of which is an introduction to one area of philosophy, and then taking the forewords from these and forming them into a single volume. It works pretty well - Andre Comte-Sponville originally wrote the books for teenagers, so the style is easy to read. Is death final? Is there a God. What do we mean by beauty and what part does Art play. If you want a book which discusses these big questions but doesn't become too taxing then this book fits the bill admirably. Continued..

If you're going to read The Crucible of Creation by Simon Conway Morris then you'll need to know about Wonderful Life in which Stephen J Gould argues for contingency in evolution, based upon the reinterpretation of the Burgess Shale fauna - in which Conway Morris played a significant part. But Conway Morris clearly doesn't like his work being used in support of an idea which he disagrees with, and so argues against it in this book. Unfortunately this leads to the book having a very strange first chapter, which seems more like a rant than reasoned argument - the author seems prone to repeat simple arguments which have already been addressed in Gould's book.

Life's solution	Cambridge University Press, 2003	ISBN: 0521827043
Although the orthodox view is that evolution doesn't follow any predefined direction, it certainly looks as if it is progressing towards higher forms. In Life's solution:Inevitable Humans in a lonely universe Simon Conway Morris argues that evolution does indeed have a direction of progress. The first part of the book examines the origin of life on earth, and indeed the origin of the Earth itself, and so poses the question of the uniqueness of the types living things we see around us - is life elsewhere in the universe likely to be similar to that here? Conway Morris thinks that if there are suitable planets then it will be, but that such planets may be rarer than we think. Continued..

In The hunt for Zero Point Nick Cook examines the evidence for such a project. He details work done in Germany, in particular in secret Nazi laboratories, and explains how this work was transferred to the USA after the war, leading to an anti-gravity 'buzz' in the mid-1950's - which for some reason faded away.
