Zustand: Wie Neu. Zustandsbeschreibung: leichte Lagerspuren/minor shelfwear. Winners and Losers in the Milky Way. This book describes the possible distribution of life in the Milky Way. Our description is mathematical in order to be extrapolated from what we know that happened on Earth to what might have happened on the huge number of extrasolar planets existing in the Milky Way Galaxy. We use the statistical Drake equation, which identifies parameters for calculating the total number of life forms at all levels. While the original Drake equation (1961) contained seven factors only, we extend the number of factors to 50, thus incorporating much of the scientific knowledge about the Evolution of Life available in 2024. As such, this book aims at being a narrative of a series of events, starting with pre-life epochs and extending them into the present and into the future. This book, while well rooted in scientific and mathematical models, depicts the drama of life - whether it emerges and thrives or succumbs and vanishes. It's a tale of attempts, defeats, and progress, unfolding not along the scale of Human Lifetimes, but rather along the scale of Galactic Civilizations billion years long. XVI,252 Seiten mit 68 Farb- und 24 s/w-Abb., gebunden (Springer 2024). Statt EUR 64,19. Gewicht: 564 g - Gebunden/Gebundene Ausgabe.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Il libro descrive la possibile distribuzione della vita nella Via Lattea. Tramite l'equazione di Drake individua i parametri per calcolare in numero di civiltà intelligenti con cui potremmo comunicare e il numero complessivo di forme di vita presenti a tutti i livelli. L'equazione di Drake citata è composta da sette fattori molto difficili da definire; tuttavia, con un sofisticato metodo probabilistico il testo approfondisce l'equazione ampliandola a 50 fattori e discutendo ciascuno di essi. Per questa via ripercorre, quantificandola in termini probabilistici, l'intera narrazione della nostra galassia.
