Ergebnis für "Kim" in Wissenschaft & Technik

Der Alltag dient Mai Thi Nguyen-Kim als roter Faden, der durch die Welt von organischer, anorganischer und physikalischer Chemie führt: Der Tag beginnt mit der Chemie des Aufwachens, wir erfahren, wann der richtige Zeitpunkt für den ersten Kaffee und was das Geheimnis perfekter Bratkartoffeln ist, wie Stoffwechsel- und Jo-Jo-Effekt chemisch funktionieren, warum nur Aluminiumsalze die Schweißbildung verhindern, andere Stoffe aber den Schweiß nicht stinken lassen... Und natürlich geht es am Abend um die "Chemistry of Love.

Fakten, wissenschaftlich fundiert und eindeutig belegt, sind Gold wert.

Klarsichtig und kurzweilig legt sie dar, was faktisch niemand mehr bestreiten kann und worauf wir uns alle einigen können.

Was ist Fakt, was ist Fiktion? Ein Fakt ist eine wissenschaftlich überprüfbare Tatsache. Eine Meinung hingegen ist das Ergebnis persönlicher Überzeugungen und Ansichten. Aber welche Rolle spielen dann subjektive Deutungen in der Wissenschaft? Und wann wird aus einer Einzelmeinung wissenschaftlicher Konsens? Neurowissenschaftler und Bestsellerautor Jens Foell widmet sich in seinem neuen Buch dem Spannungsfeld von Fakten und Fiktionen in der Naturwissenschaft: Er folgt dem Gang wissenschaftlicher Erkenntnis in Psychologie, Physik, Chemie und Medizin von der Beobachtung über die Hypothesenbildung bis zur Kommunikation.

Over the last three million years or so, our lineage has diverged sharply from those of our great ape relatives. Change has been rapid (in evolutionary terms) and pervasive. In The Evolved Apprentice, Kim Sterelny argues that the divergence stems from the fact humans gradually came to enrich the learning environment of the next generation. He develops a new theory of the evolution of human cognition and human social life that emphasizes the gradual evolution of information-sharing practices across generations and how these practices transformed human minds and social lives.
