Digging deep into the archival record among formerly secret technical reports, rose establishes that heisenberg never overcame certain misconceptions about nuclear fission, and as a result the german leaders never pushed for atomic weaponsthe question of why he did, and why he misrepresented himself afterwards, is answered through rose's subtle analysis of german mentality and the scientists' problems of delusion and self-delusionthis was fiction, as rose demonstrates: in reality, heisenberg blindly supported and justified the cause of german victorywhat precisely did heisenberg know about the physics of the atomic bomb? how deep was his loyalty to the german government during the third reich? assuming that he had been able to build a bomb, would he have been willing? these questions, the moral and the scientific, are answered by paul lawrence rose with greater accuracy and breadth of documentation than any other historian has yet achievedin fact, heisenberg never had to face the moral problem of whether he should design a bomb for the nazi regimeonly when he and his colleagues were interned in england and heard about hiroshima did heisenberg realize that his calculations were wrongsee oxfam website for delivery information read moreno one better represents the plight and the conduct of german intellectuals under hitler than werner heisenberg, whose task it was to build an atomic bomb for nazi germanyhe began at once to construct an image of himself as a "pure" scientist who could have built a bomb but chose to work on reactor design insteadthis fascinating study is a profound effort to understand one of the twentieth century's great enigmasthe controversy surrounding heisenberg still rages, because of the nature of his work and the regime for which it was undertakenoxfam shop kendal very good condition hardback with minimal wear

However, this can also be explained on the basis of a weaker claimnot that there is some particular being that has to be, but simply that there has to be something or otherrundle argues that a creator of physical reality is not required, since there is no alternative to its existencehe supports this claim by eliminating rival contenders; he dismisses the supernatural, and argues that, while other forms of being, notably the abstract and the mental, are not reducible to the physical, they presuppose its existencewhy there is something rather than nothing offers an explanation of fundamental facts of existence in purely philosophical terms, without appeal either to theology or cosmologytraditionally, the existence of the physical universe is held to depend on god, but the theist faces a major difficulty in making clear how a being outside space and time, as god is customarily conceived to be, could stand in an intelligible relation to the world, whether as its creator or as the author of events within itoxfam bookshop preston why should there be anything at all? why, in particular, should a material world exist? bede rundle advances clear, non-technical answers to these perplexing questionsit will provoke and intrigue anyone who wonders about these questionssee oxfam website for delivery information read morethere is some superficial scuffing to the dust jacket, but this book is otherwise as newif, as the theist maintains, god is a being who cannot but exist, his existence explains why there is something rather than nothingthe question whether ultimate explanations can ever be given is forever in the background, and the book concludes with an investigation of this issue and of the possibility that the universe could have existed for an infinite timeother topics discussed include causality, space, verifiability, essence, existence, necessity, spirit, fine tuning, and laws of naturerundle proffers arguments for thinking that that is indeed how the question is to be put to restthere has to be something, and a physical universe is the only real possibility
