“Nobel laureate erwin schrãdinger’s what is life? is one of the great science classics of the twentieth century. a distinguished physicist’s exploration of the question which lies at the heart of biology, it was written for the layman, but proved one of the spurs to the birth of molecular biology and the subsequent discovery of the structure of dna. the philosopher karl popper hailed it as a ‘beautiful and important book’ by ‘a great man to whom i owe a personal debt for many exciting discussions’. it appears here together with mind and matter, his essay investigating a relationship which has eluded and puzzled philosophers since the earliest times. schrodinger asks what place consciousness occupies in the evolution of life, and what part the state of development of the human mind plays in moral questions. brought together with these two classics are schrãdinger’s autobiographical sketches, published and translated here for the first time. they offer a fascinating fragmentary account of his life as a background to his scientific writings, making this volume a valuable additon to the shelves of scientist and layman alike.”

“A possible cerebroprotective effect of halothane was investigated in a canine model of 5-min global cerebral ischemia. in pentobarbital-anesthetized dogs, additional inhalation of 0.5 to 1{%} halothane prior to ischemia prevented the post-ischemic dysfunction of the vagal component of reflex bradycardia. in contrast, pretreatment with thiopental at 10 mg/kg, i.v. failed to prevent it. the influence of ischemia in the absence of anesthetics was similar to that under barbiturate anesthesia. the results suggest that halothane, but not barbiturate, may actively protect the vagal baroreflex system from ischemia.”

“Nobel laureate erwin schrödinger was one of the most distinguished scientists and philosophers of the twentieth century, and his lectures are legendary. here the texts of two of schrödinger’s most famous lecture series are made available again. in the first, entitled ‘nature and the greeks,’ schrödinger offers a historical account of the scientific world picture. in the second, called ‘science and humanism,’ he addresses fundamental questions about the link between scientific and spiritual matters. as roger penrose confirms, these are the profound thoughts of a great mind, and as relevant today as when they were first published in the 1950s.”
