  • af D.A. Anapolitanos
    1.126,95 kr.

    Anapolitanos critically examines and evaluates three basic characteristics of the Leibnizian metaphysical system: Leibniz's version of representation; Chapter II examines the principle of continuity, including continuity as a general feature of every level of Leibniz's metaphysics.

  • - Colours and Ethics between Kant and Goethe
    af P.F. Lauxtermann
    1.769,95 kr.

    In this deeply-delving, lucidly written, humane and erudite study, the history of philosophical currents is blended with history of science, with history of ideas generally, and (to elucidate relevant portions of Schopenhauer's biography and intellectual and social environment) with German history too.

    af D.C. Gooding

    This view bifurcates the scientist's world into an empirical world of pre-articulate experience and know how and another world of talk, thought and argument.

  • - An Anti-Realist View of Quantum Mechanics
    af Jan Faye
    1.176,95 kr.

    The bulk of the present book has not been published previously though Chapters II and IV are based in part on two earlier papers of mine: "The Influence of Harald H!1lffding's Philosophy on Niels Bohr's Interpretation of Quantum Mechanics", which appeared in Danish Yearbook of Philosophy, 1979, and "The Bohr-H!1lffding Relationship Reconsidered", published in Studies in History and Philosophy of Science, 1988. These two papers comple­ ment each other, and in order to give the whole issue a more extended treatment I have sought, in the present volume by drawing on relevant historical material, to substantiate the claim that H!1lffding was Bohr's mentor. Besides containing a detailed account of Bohr's philosophy, the book, at the same time, serves the purpose of making H!1lffding' s ideas and historical significance better known to a non-Danish readership. During my work on this book I have consulted the Royal Danish Library; the National Archive of Denmark and the Niels Bohr Archive, Copenhagen, in search of relevant material. I am grateful for permission to use and quote material from these sources. Likewise, I am indebted to colleagues and friends for commenting upon the manuscript: I am especially grateful to Professor Henry Folse for our many discussions during my visit to New Orleans in November-December 1988 and again here in Elsinore in July 1990.

  • - Concepts Out of Context(s)
    af Kostas Gavroglu & Yorgos Goudaroulis
    1.117,95 - 1.229,95 kr.

    This book is primarily about the methodological questions involved in attempts to understand two of the most peculiar phenomena in physics, both occurring at the lowest of temperatures.

  • af N.J. Nersessian
    1.753,95 kr.

    However, nearly every one - including scientists - agrees that the concepts of modem physics are quite incomprehensible: They are both unintelligible to the educated lay-person and to the scientific community itself, where there is much dispute over the interpretation of even (and especially) the most basic concepts.

  • - The Uses of Instruments in the Optical Revolution
    af Xiang Chen
    1.126,95 kr.

    An analysis of the optical revolution in the context of early 19th century Britain. People's judgements about classification, explanation and evaluation were affected by the way they used such optical instruments as spectroscopes, telescopes, polarisers, photometers, gratings, prisms and apertures.
