Reality In Heisenberg's Philosophy - Chapter Eight Of Heelan's Quantum Mechanics And Objectivity, Patrick Heelan

Research Resources

This chapter contains a study of Heisenberg's views of the ontological content of quantum mechanics from I925 until the present day. During the quantum revolution of I925, he began by accepting a Berkeley-type empiricism in which the reality of a quantum mechanical system was reduced to that of a set of observation events, which were, however, acausally connected and in consequence did not constitute a stable phenomenal object of experimental knowledge. After 1955, he professed a modified form of Kantian philosophy whose starting point was the existence of universal and necessary scientific laws. Those universal and necessary scientific laws from …

in this issue. . .

EVERY laborer, and particularly the editor of such a journal as THE MIDWEST QUARTERLY, is deserving of a little time off. Not only does he need to rest and recruit himself, but more importantly he needs that holiday of the spirit that comes with putting the old routine behind him and sallying into fresh fields, from which, hopefully, he will bring back a rich harvest. There is also, we are bound to add, a very human need of recognition and appreciation, and he will never be more appreciated than when he is missed. Not a …

A Century Of Platonic Scholarship In France: From Cousin To Robin, Ernst Morris Manasse

The Universal In Physics I.1, Joseph Owens C.Ss.R.

The Society for Ancient Greek Philosophy Newsletter

The opening paragraph of the Physics sketches succinctly Aristotle's general notion of scientific knowledge. First, in any scientific discipline, to know a thing is to know its principles or elements. Secondly, the natural path of human knowledge is from things that are more knowable for men to things that are more knowable in themselves, that is, from concretions to the distinct cognition of principles and elements. These two norms are regarded as applying to all scientific procedure. Here they are outlined briefly as an introduction to the Aristotelian philosophy of nature. But Aristotle goes on to apparently recommend moving from …

LOOKING FORWARD as we began Volume V a year ago, we predicted "a number of articles on aspects of American politics, American foreign policy, and American internal problems" in our issues for 1964. Our record demonstrates the accuracy of our prediction. So for that matter do the contents of this issue. From Edmund Wilson to Emily Dickinson, from Thomas Hart Benton (the Missouri Senator, not the Missouri artist) to Alf Landon, from the agrarian myth to the relatively new discipline of musicology, we present another diverse combination of discussions for your fall fare.

The Aristotelian Doctrine Of Qualitative Change In Physics Vii.3, Gerard Verbeke

The Society for Ancient Greek Philosophy Newsletter

Aristotle wonders whether it is possible to translate into terms of qualitative change the most important activities of man, such as technical activities, culture of the body, moral conduct, and scientific knowledge. The confrontation between the notion of qualitative change on the one hand and certain fundamental forms of human activity on the other makes it possible to define even more precisely the notion of alloiosis and to lead us to a more thorough understanding of the distinctive nature of properly human activities.

in this issue. . .

FOLLOWING the pattern of a year ago, this is our summer literary issue. Whether we can set it down as a hard and fast rule that every future summer issue will be literary, it is impossible to say at this writing. Our five years of publishing experience indicate that we can expect to continue to receive an abundance of manuscripts treating literary subjects--probably at a ratio of three to two over all other subjects. This makes it relatively easy if not down right good sense to devote at least one issue a year to literature. …
