商品描述
Chance, Calculation and Life brings together 16 original papers from the colloquium of the same name, organized by the International Cultural Center of Cerisy in 2019.
From mathematics to the humanities and biology, there are many concepts and questions related to chance. What are the different types of chance? Does chance correspond to a lack of knowledge about the causes of events, or is there a truly intrinsic and irreducible chance? Does chance preside over our decisions? Does it govern evolution? Is it at the origin of life? What part do chance and necessity play in biology?
This book answers these fundamental questions by bringing together the clear and richly documented contributions of mathematicians, physicists, biologists and philosophers who make this book an incomparable tool for work and reflection.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
《機會、計算與生命》匯集了2019年由國際文化中心Cerisy舉辦的同名研討會的16篇原創論文。從數學到人文學科和生物學，與機會相關的概念和問題層出不窮。機會有哪幾種不同的類型？機會是否對應於對事件原因的無知，還是說存在真正內在且不可約簡的機會？機會是否主導我們的決策？它是否支配著進化？它是否是生命的起源？在生物學中，機會和必然扮演著什麼角色？這本書通過匯集數學家、物理學家、生物學家和哲學家的清晰且資料豐富的貢獻，回答了這些基本問題，使這本書成為一個無與倫比的工作和反思工具。
