Physics And Vertical Causation eBook

 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.
