Описание: Modern science has evolved gradually through interactions of mathematics, theology, and natural philosophy since the 17th century. This book demonstrates that metaphysical and theological threads continue to underpin the epistemology and practice of the physical sciences and mathematics.

Описание: This investigation of time and space is motivated by gaps in our current understanding: by the lack of definitions, by our failure to appreciate the nature of these entities, by our inability to pin down their properties.The author's approach is based on two key ideas: The first idea is to seek the geo-historical origins of time and space concepts. A thorough investigation of a diversified archaeological corpus, allows him to draft coherent definitions; it furthermore gives clues as to whether time and space were discovered or invented. The second idea is to define the units before trying to define space and time.The results presented here are unexpected: Time and space were not discovered in nature, but they were invented; time is not a phenomenon and space has no materiality; they are only concepts. This runs contrary to the opinion of most scientific and the philosophical authorities, although one would seek in vain for a theoretical validation of the conventional position. This book will provide much food for thought for philosophers and scientists, as well as interested general readers.

Описание: Festschriften, when they are haphazard collections of pieces written by colleagues and well-wishers on the occasion of a major anniversary in the life of a distinguished man, tend to be tedious.

Описание: In two earlier volumes, entitled The Logico-Algebraic Approach to Quan- tum Mechanics (hereafter LAA I, II), I have presented collections of research papers which trace out the historical development and contem- porary flowering of a particular approach to physical theory.

Описание: Although the debate about the true nature of the quantum behavior of atomic systems has never ceased, there are two periods during which it has been particularly intense: the years that saw the founding of quantum mechanics and, increasingly, these modern times.

Описание: Costa de Beauregard`s scientific career has focused on three domains - special relativity, statistics and irreversibility, and quantum mechanics. Quantum mechanics, on the other hand, derives from very complicated principles but, since its mathematics is straightforward, people feel they understand it.
