Letting in the Light


Book Description

The essays in this book arise from the enduring confusion and perplexity created in the author by the realities encountered in his experiences of modern communities and the operation of formal human service systems. In particular, he has been preoccupied with how they relate to the lives of those who are devalued in society. This book began with a search for the light of knowledge and reason and has ended with an appreciation for the even brighter light of enduring and unchanging wisdom. It is this light that the author states we must be sure to let in, so that the promise of a life that is more fully lived can come closer to those who need it.

Let There Be Light


Book Description

This book is the first of its kind devoted to the key role played by light and electromagnetic radiation in the universe. Readers are introduced to philosophical hypotheses such as the economy, symmetry and the universality of natural laws, and are then guided to practical consequences such as the rules of geometrical optics and even Einstein''s well-known but mysterious relationship, E = mc2. Most chapters feature a pen picture of the life and character of a relevant scientific figure. These OCyHistorical InterludesOCO include, among others, Galileo''s conflicts with the Inquisition, Fourier''s taunting of the guillotine, Neils Bohr and World War II, and the unique character of Richard Feynman.The second edition has been revised and made more accessible to the general reader. Whenever possible, the mathematical material of the first edition has been replaced by appropriate text to give a verbal account of the mystery of the phenomenon of light and how its understanding has developed from pre-historic to present times. The emphasis is on reading for interest and enjoyment; formulae or equations which underpin and reinforce the argument are presented in a form which does not interfere with the flow of the text.The book will be of interest to students and teachers, as well as general readers interested in physics.
