詹姆斯·洛夫洛克的许多人生：科学、秘密和盖亚理论
Based on over eighty hours of interviews with Lovelock and unprecedented access to his personal papers and scientific archive, Jonathan Watts has written a definitive and revelatory biography of a fascinating, sometimes contradictory man.
James Lovelock is best known as the father of Gaia Theory, the idea that life on Earth is a self-sustaining system in which organisms interact with their environments to maintain a habitable ecosystem.
Lovelock's life was a chronicle of twentieth-century science, and somehow he seemed to have a hand in much of it. During the Second World War he worked at the National Medical Research Institute, where his life-long interest in chemical tracing began. In the 1960s he worked at NASA. He worked for MI5 and MI6 during the Cold War. He was a science advisor to the oil giant Shell, who he warned as early as 1966 that fossil fuels were causing serious harm to the environment. He invented the technology that found the hole in the Ozone layer. And all of this shaped Gaia Theory - a theory that could not have been developed without the collaboration of two important women in his life.
Drawing together the many influences which shaped his life and thinking, The Many Lives of James Lovelock is a unique biography of one of the most fascinating scientists of the modern age.
中文|2024年9月12日|ISBN:1805302876|320页|True EPUB |4.04 MB乔纳森·瓦茨根据对洛夫洛克80多个小时的采访以及对他的个人论文和科学档案的前所未有的访问，写了一本关于一个迷人的、有时自相矛盾的人的权威而启示性的传记。 詹姆斯·洛夫洛克最为人所知的是盖亚理论之父，该理论认为地球上的生命是一个自我维持的系统，在这个系统中，生物体与环境相互作用，以维持一个宜居的生态系统。 洛夫洛克的一生是二十世纪科学的编年史，不知怎么的，他似乎参与了其中的大部分。在第二次世界大战期间，他在国家医学研究所工作，在那里他开始了对化学追踪的终身兴趣。20世纪60年代，他在美国国家航空航天局工作。冷战期间，他为军情五处和军情六处工作。他是石油巨头壳牌的科学顾问，早在1966年，他就警告说化石燃料对环境造成了严重危害。他发明了在臭氧层发现洞的技术。所有这些形成了盖亚理论——如果没有他生命中两位重要女性的合作，这个理论是不可能发展起来的。 《詹姆斯·洛夫洛克的一生》汇集了塑造他生活和思想的许多影响，是一本独特的传记，讲述了现代最迷人的科学家之一。本站不对文件进行储存，仅提供文件链接，请自行下载，本站不对文件内容负责，请自行判断文件是否安全，如发现文件有侵权行为，请联系管理员删除。
