Human flourishing
This perspective article explores foundational shifts required for the conceptualization of future principles and goals to inform the starting re-negotiation process of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) post-2030. Based on a multi-stakeholder consultation and workshop-based focus groups, this article emphasizes integrating non-material aspects of human flourishing, such as cultural, psycho-social, and community-based aspects, in addition t…
Dual theories
Introduction to special issue on dualities
Introduction
AdS/CFT duality and the emergence of spacetime
Just one damn thing after another
A philosopher looks at string dualities
Gauge Pressure
Keeping It Semireal
Econophysics for philosophers
A simple guide to chaos and complexity
The concepts of complexity and chaos are being invoked with increasing frequency in the health sciences literature. However, the concepts underpinning these concepts are foreign to many health scientists and there is some looseness in how they have been translated from their origins in mathematics and physics, which is leading to confusion and error in their application. Nonetheless, used carefully, “complexity science” has the potential to invig…
Symmetry, Structure, and Spacetime, Volume 3 (Philosophy and Foundations of Physics) (Philosophy and Foundations of Physics)
In this book, Rickles considers several interpretative difficulties raised by gauge-type symmetries (those that correspond to no change in physical state). The ubiquity of such symmetries in modern physics renders them an urgent topic in philosophy of physics. Rickles focuses on spacetime physics, and in particular classical and quantum general relativity. Here the problems posed are at their most pathological, involving the apparent disappearanc…
Bringing the hole argument back in the loop
Quantum Disentanglements
A new spin on the hole argument
