Synopsis

Including new material on the metaphysics of the integral cosmos, the author accomplishes a magnificent reintegration of the physical sciences with a worldview banished in the West since the Enlightenment, which is nevertheless perfectly accommodative of legitimate scientific discovery. Far from being an academic or nostalgic curiosity, that forgotten worldview proves to be precisely what is needed to resolve the quandaries of problems which have stymied physicists for nearly a century. The implications of this text, which reevaluates Einstein's relativism as well as epistemologies falsely based on the Galilean-Cartesian notion of "secondary qualities," restores the ontological realism of the world as we behold it, and opens hitherto inconceivable venues for scientific inquiry.

À propos de l'auteur

Wolfgang Smith graduated from Cornell at age eighteen with majors in physics, mathematics, and philosophy. He subsequently contributed a theoretical solution to the re-entry problem for space flight. After taking his doctorate in mathematics at Columbia, he served for thirty years as professor of mathematics at M.I.T., U.C.L.A., and Oregon State University. Smith then devoted himself to correcting the fallacies of scientistic belief, focusing on foundational problems pertaining to quantum theory and visual perception by way of the traditional tripartite cosmology. The Philos-Sophia Initiative Foundation's documentary on his life and work, "The End of Quantum Reality", is now available on disc and digital platforms worldwide.
