Was können wir wissen?: Mit Physik bis zur Grenze by Josef Honerkamp

By Josef Honerkamp

Es sind immer die gleichen Fragen, die einem Physiker in Gesellschaft interessanter und interessierter Menschen gestellt werden: was once wissen Physikerinnen und Physiker über die Welt und wie sicher wissen sie es? Wissen wir Menschen denn wirklich, was once Materie ist, und used to be Zeit - und wie die Welt entstanden ist? Müssen wir zugeben, dass es auch Fragen gibt, die guy nie verlässlich beantworten kann?

Josef Honerkamp, der mehr als 30 Jahre als Professor für Theoretische Physik lehrte, hat Begegnungen und Gespräche aus seinem Alltag zum Anlass genommen, über die faszinierendsten Fragen rund um die Physik nachzudenken: Über den Urknall und die Implikation von E=mc², über Zeit, Materie, Quanten, Zufall und die Realität, bis zu kritischem Rationalismus, Emergenz, Vorwissen, Wissenschaft und Technik, sowie die Physik aus der Gottesperspektive.

Mit 'Was wissen wir eigentlich?' ist so ein Lesebuch über spannende Themen der Physik und "darüber hinaus" entstanden - in einer section des Nach-Denkens über das, worüber der Autor jahrzehntelang gelehrt und geforscht hat. Diesen und ähnlichen Themen hat der Autor sich seit einigen Jahren auch in seinem Wissenschafts-Blog gewidmet, der im Blogportal www.scilogs.de von "Spektrum der Wissenschaften" unter dem Titel "Die Natur der Naturwissenschaften" erscheint.
