Описание: For many centuries, Aristotle's Physics was the essential starting point for anyone who wished to study the natural sciences This book begins with an analysis
of change, which introduces us to Aristotle's central concepts of matter and form, before moving on to an account of explanation in the sciences and a defence of teleological
explanation. Aristotle then turns to detailed, important, and often ingenious discussions of notions such as infinity, place, void, time, and conintuity. He ends with an argument designed
to show that the changes we experience in the world demand as their cause a single unchanging cause of all change, namely God.
This is the first complete translation of
Physics into English since 1930. It presents Aristotle's thought accurately, while at the same time simplifying and expanding the often crabbed and elliptical style of the original, so that it
is very much easier to read. A lucid introduction and extensive notes explain the general structure of each section of the book and shed light on particular problems.
Описание: In Search of a Theory of Everything is on a quest for the theory that will ultimately explain all the phenomena of nature via a single immutable overarching law.

Описание: J.T. Ismael`s book will be the first to truly examine the question of what physics actually tell us about whether or not we are free to act. Her conclusions are surprising and engaging, and importantly show that physics does actually not say that we are not free.

Описание: This collection of Feyerabend`s philosophical papers provides the first comprehensive picture of his works on quantum physics, some of which are made available in English for the first time. They cover the first and most elaborate period of Feyerabend`s production (1948-70), the hotbed of all his later production.

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: Informed by material as divergent as quantum physics, `mirror` neurons, and Libet`s experimental results, this philosophical exploration of the conflict between free will and resurgent neuroscientific determinism combines scientific rigor and deep analysis.

Описание: In this small book, theoretical physicist Gerard 't Hooft (Nobel prize 1999), philosopher Emanuele Severino (Lincei Academician), and theologian Piero Coda (Pontifical Lateran University) confront one another on a topic that lies at the roots of quantum mechanics and at the origin of Western thought: Determinism and Free Will. 'God does not play dice' said Einstein, a tenacious determinist. Quantum Mechanics and its clash with General Relativity have reanimated ancient dilemmas about chance and necessity: Is Nature deterministic? Is Man free? The “free-will theorem” by Conway and Kochen, and the deterministic interpretation of quantum mechanics proposed by 't Hooft, revive such philosophical questions in modern Physics. Is Becoming real? Is the Elementary Event a product of the Case? The cyclopean clash between Heraclitus and Parmenides has entered a new episode, as evidenced by the essays in this volume.
Описание: People are challenged with ethical questions on a daily basis and students often wrestle with such questions as part of an introductory philosophy or ethics course. Whether or not they know Aristotle from Hume, readers of Ethics For Dummies can quickly become comfortable with the centuries-old study of ethical philosophy.
