Synopsis

This book defends the thesis that most of the seemingly intractable problems of modern philosophy are a consequence of a false philosophy of nature the author calls Galilean physicalism, or physicalism about the external world. Not only does the abandonment of physicalism remove these philosophical puzzles, but insistence on physicalism ultimately undermines the very possibility of natural science as a branch of theoretical inquiry. Having defended an alternative philosophy of nature elsewhere, the author applies these results to the defense of a chastened scientific realism.
