The Ontology of Spacetime II
ID: 175498
Dennis Dieks
The Concordia University (Montreal) from the International Society for the Advanced Study of Spacetime (John Earman, President) 9 to 11 June 2006.
Most chapters are devoted to the ontology of spacetime.
The book begins with the view of the first and second places. The focus then slightly shifts in the aspects of relativity theory. After this, Time, Becoming and Change take center stage in the next five papers. The book of the Kaluza-Klein theory, a relatively uncharted territory, and the concept of physics, respectively.
. Space and time in present-day physics and philosophy
. Relatively low level of technicality, please
. Introduction from scratch of the debates surrounding time
. Broad spectrum of approaches, coherently represented
