Hardcover. Etat : Very Good. Etat de la jaquette : Good. 1st Edition. A thoughtful examination of the future directions of modern science by theoretical physicist Gerald Feinberg, focusing particularly on the rapidly developing fields of quantum physics and molecular biology. Feinberg considers fundamental questions in physics, biology, scientific methodology, and the future of scientific discovery, examining areas in which contemporary research offered what he regarded as "solid clues" about the direction science might take. Published in 1985, the book is especially interesting today as a period assessment of quantum theory, molecular biology, and scientific forecasting at a moment when biotechnology and modern particle physics were rapidly developing. Feinberg was a professor of physics at Columbia University and a provocative theoretical thinker known for exploring unconventional problems at the boundaries of established physics. Condition Very Good book in Good dust jacket. Hardcover binding appears firm and sound. Interior is clean and generally well preserved, with no significant writing, highlighting, staining, or other major defects visible in the material examined. Dust jacket has moderate rubbing and surface scratching with general edge and corner wear. Two older adhesive inventory/identification labels are present on the rear jacket panel. Jacket remains intact and attractive overall. Significance / Collector Appeal An interesting intersection of physics, molecular biology, scientific prediction, and philosophy of science. Feinberg was a Columbia theoretical physicist whose work ranged beyond conventional disciplinary boundaries, giving the book additional interest for collectors of twentieth-century physics and scientific futurism.

Hardcover. Etat : Very Good. First Edition. First printing. Dk. blue full cloth boards, silver spine titles, slight shelf wear. Pages fine. Bind fine; hinges intact. In this book, Feinberg attempts to predict the changes that will take place in science and its effort to understand the universe which we live and all it contains. Gerald Feinberg's books are always mind-stretching and each is better than the one before. - Isaac Asimov. Feinberg was a Columbia University physicist, futurist and populist author. He spent a year as a Member of the Institute for Advanced Study, and two years at Brookhaven Laboratories. Feinberg wrote a foreword to Edgar Mitchell's book Psychic Explorations (1974) in which he endorsed psychic phenomena. Feinberg coined the term tachyon for hypothetical faster-than-light particles and analysed their quantum field properties, predicted the existence of the muon neutrino and advocated cryonics as a public service. His concept of a tachyon, a theoretical particle that travels faster than the speed of light has been advocated by some parapsychologists who claim that it could explain precognition or psychokinesis. He was a member of the Foresight Institute's advisory panel. At the time of this writing, the author, Dr. Gerald Feinberg was Professor of Physics at Columbia University. 287 pages.
