Review # 1 was written on 2017-05-06 00:00:00 Martin Brausewetter This book serves as an excellent digest of some interesting historical advances in physics, and presents some interesting philosophical discussion of them. However, the book does a better job of raising questions than of answering them. The author's idiosyncratic use of received philosophical terms such as `naturalism' make the arguments somewhat hard to follow. Further, too much time is spent going into the details of examples, when more needs to be said about what relevance the examples bear to the arguments. Still, a very thought provoking book. |
Review # 2 was written on 2017-05-15 00:00:00 Fallon Ryan Steiner (à la suite de Wigner) formule la question de l'applicabilité des mathématiques comme une énigme philosophique. Sans amener de réponse plausible à cette question, la lecture de ce livre pousse le lecteur à se poser des questions, ce qui est déjà beaucoup. |
