Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from On the General Principles Analysis, Vol. 1: Being a Series of Original Investigations in Different Departments of Pure Mathematics It seems to me to be a libel upon mathematical science to pronounce any of its departments to be inherently too difficult and recondite for the comprehension of a mind thus trained and prepared. Analysis is too frequently and too unjustly branded with this stigma, when the reproach more properly belongs to those who are the exponents of its doctrines. If superior clear ness and perspicuity can reasonably be looked for in any subject, surely that subject is mathematics: and yet no department of scientific research can be adduced which is enveloped in so much unnatural and repulsive Obscurity as the science of abstract analysis. Still, however, I must acknowledge, that this fault is not always without its advantages what is of easy attainment is Often undervalued; and, in the minds of some, the only way to enhance the estimate is to increase the difficulty of access. It was, no doubt, a conviction of this truth, that influenced Mr. Horner to invest his important discovery of the general solution of numerical equations, in the dress in which it appears in the 'transactions of the Royal Society.' With admirable tact and sagacity, he shrouded a very simple matter in a garb of transcen dental mystery; but, as soon as his primary Object was secured, the object, namely, of the early publication of his results, under the auspices of a learned body, he proceeded to strip the subject of its unnatural disguise, and to exhibit it in all its native simplicity. From these introductory remarks, it will be perceived, that my object will be to convey the contents Of this volume to the reader with as little expenditure of thought and labour, on his part, as he can reasonably expect to incur in the perusal.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from On the General Principles Analysis, Vol. 1: Being a Series of Original Investigations in Different Departments of Pure Mathematics The work, of which this is the First Part, was intended to be issued in monthly portions, and to embrace the following topics: 1. Conjugate Functions, and their application to the Analysis of Equations. 2. Researches respecting the Theory of Numbers. 3. A Disquisition on Diverging Series. 4. On Zeros, real and imaginary, Conjugate Points, and Imaginary Logarithms. 5. On certain Theorems of Leibnitz, Abel, Murphy, &c. 6. On the Law of Continuity in Analysis. 7. Miscellaneous Investigations in the Calculus of Operations, the Theory of Probability, the Law of Population, &c. 8. Prefatory matter, in a Dedication to the Earl of Clarendon, containing statements and explanations of interest to the friends of Science. The author feels it necessary here to state, that the further prosecution of this design must, for the present, be suspended. The subscribers to the work, although including some of the most distinguished names in the kingdom, are nevertheless too few in number, as yet, to justify him in incurring the expense of the publication. The proceeds of this First Part of the work are not likely to cover one half of the outlay: as soon as this obstacle is removed, the publication will be regularly proceeded with. The Statements, &c., intended for Part VIII will shortly be printed in a distinct form. The pamphlet will be published separately at One Shilling: the subscribers to the work originally proposed will not be considered as pledged to the purchase of it, nor will it be forwarded to them unless expressly ordered. One remark more must be made, though it would be gladly avoided. It was the early-formed resolution of the author that duplicate copies should not be forwarded to any individual subscriber; this resolution was founded upon reasons cogent to his own mind, but which he may, perhaps, here be excused from formally stating. Some of the most eminent persons whose names occur in the following list, have each ordered several copies of the publisher. But the author respectfully requests permission to adhere to his original determination, though at the risk of incurring the charge of inconsistency. His hope and aim was, and is, that his book might, in some degree, be acceptable to science; and he must be suffered to indulge the delusion - if delusion it be - that the countenance extended to it is justified by the expectation of at least partial success in his endeavours, irrespective of all considerations personal to the author.

Download or read book The Handbook of Attitudes Volume 1 Basic Principles written by Dolores Albarracin and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-10-10 with total page 664 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Attitudes are evaluations of people, places, things, and ideas. They help us to navigate through a complex world. They provide guidance for decisions about which products to buy, how to travel to work, or where to go on vacation. They color our perceptions of others. Carefully crafted interventions can change attitudes and behavior. Yet, attitudes, beliefs, and behavior are often formed and changed in casual social exchanges. The mere perception that other people favor something, say, rich people, may be sufficient to make another person favor it. People’s own actions also influence their attitudes, such that they adjust to be more supportive of the actions. People’s belief systems even change to align with and support their preferences, which at its extreme is a form of denial for which people lack awareness. These two volumes provide authoritative, critical surveys of theory and research about attitudes, beliefs, persuasion, and behavior from key authors in these areas. The first volume covers theoretical notions about attitudes, the beliefs and behaviors to which they are linked, and the degree to which they are held outside of awareness. It also discusses motivational and cultural determinants of attitudes, influences of attitudes on behavior, and communication and persuasion. The second volume covers applications to measurement, behavior prediction, and interventions in the areas of cancer, HIV, substance use, diet, and exercise, as well as in politics, intergroup relations, aggression, migrations, advertising, accounting, education, and the environment.

Download or read book The Dawn of Analysis written by Scott Soames and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2005-01-30 with total page 436 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a major, wide-ranging history of analytic philosophy since 1900, told by one of the tradition's leading contemporary figures. The first volume takes the story from 1900 to mid-century. The second brings the history up to date. As Scott Soames tells it, the story of analytic philosophy is one of great but uneven progress, with leading thinkers making important advances toward solving the tradition's core problems. Though no broad philosophical position ever achieved lasting dominance, Soames argues that two methodological developments have, over time, remade the philosophical landscape. These are (1) analytic philosophers' hard-won success in understanding, and distinguishing the notions of logical truth, a priori truth, and necessary truth, and (2) gradual acceptance of the idea that philosophical speculation must be grounded in sound prephilosophical thought. Though Soames views this history in a positive light, he also illustrates the difficulties, false starts, and disappointments endured along the way. As he engages with the work of his predecessors and contemporaries--from Bertrand Russell and Ludwig Wittgenstein to Donald Davidson and Saul Kripke--he seeks to highlight their accomplishments while also pinpointing their shortcomings, especially where their perspectives were limited by an incomplete grasp of matters that have now become clear. Soames himself has been at the center of some of the tradition's most important debates, and throughout writes with exceptional ease about its often complex ideas. His gift for clear exposition makes the history as accessible to advanced undergraduates as it will be important to scholars. Despite its centrality to philosophy in the English-speaking world, the analytic tradition in philosophy has had very few synthetic histories. This will be the benchmark against which all future accounts will be measured.

Download or read book General Principles of Quantum Field Theory written by N.N. Bogolubov and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 714 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The majority of the "memorable" results of relativistic quantum theory were obtained within the framework of the local quantum field approach. The explanation of the basic principles of the local theory and its mathematical structure has left its mark on all modern activity in this area. Originally, the axiomatic approach arose from attempts to give a mathematical meaning to the quantum field theory of strong interactions (of Yukawa type). The fields in such a theory are realized by operators in Hilbert space with a positive Poincare-invariant scalar product. This "classical" part of the axiomatic approach attained its modern form as far back as the sixties. * It has retained its importance even to this day, in spite of the fact that nowadays the main prospects for the description of the electro-weak and strong interactions are in connection with the theory of gauge fields. In fact, from the point of view of the quark model, the theory of strong interactions of Wightman type was obtained by restricting attention to just the "physical" local operators (such as hadronic fields consisting of ''fundamental'' quark fields) acting in a Hilbert space of physical states. In principle, there are enough such "physical" fields for a description of hadronic physics, although this means that one must reject the traditional local Lagrangian formalism. (The connection is restored in the approximation of low-energy "phe nomenological" Lagrangians.
