Download or read book Knowledge and Faith written by Jan Salamucha and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2022-06-08 with total page 444 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jan Salamucha was born on the 10th of June 1903 in Warsaw and murdered on the 11th of August 1944 in Warsaw during the Warsaw Uprising very early on in his scholarly career. He is the most original representative of the branch of the Lvov-Warsaw School known as the Cracow Circle. The Circle was a grouping of scholars who were interested in reconstructing scholasticism and Christian philosophy in general by means of mathematical logic. As Jan Lukasiewicz’s successor in the area of logic and Konstanty Michalski’s student in the area of the history of medieval thought, Salamucha had an excellent preparation for this task. His main achievements include a masterful logical analysis of the proof ex motu for the existence of God, a modern interpretation of analogical notions and a comprehensive approach to the problem of essence. He also contributed several historical studies: he examined Aristotle’s theory of deduction (and found contradictions in it), he reconstructed William Ockham’s propositional logic and established the authenticity of his treatise on insolubilia, and he identified the historical sources of the antinomies in Antiquity and the Middle Ages. He did not shy away from popularizing philosophy, and in that work he was able to elucidate rather than oversimplify the complexities of philosophy.

Download or read book Beitr ge zu Leibniz Rezeption der Aristotelischen Logik und Metaphysik written by Juan-Antonio Nicolás and published by Georg Olms Verlag. This book was released on 2016-04-01 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Die Suche nach historischen Quellen für die Leibniz’sche Philosophie scheint zunächst unerschöpflich. Durch alle in diesem Band versammelten Arbeiten wird der Einfluss der Philosophie des Aristoteles auf das Leibniz’sche Denken näher umrissen. Ein wesentliches Ziel ist es hierbei, einen Beitrag zur Analyse dieser philosophischen Beziehung zu leisten und zu zeigen, dass auch Aristoteles’ Philosophie nach Ansicht unserer Autoren entscheidend zum Verständnis des Leibniz’schen Denkens beiträgt. Die Texte befassen sich mit wesentlichen Themen der Leibniz’schen Logik und Metaphysik, z. B. mit den Grundbegriffen „Monade“ (und deren „Körperhaftigkeit“), „Entelechie“, „Nous“, mit dem Problem der Individuation (Individuum, Atomismus, Einheit), mit den substanziellen Formen, mit der Wissenschaft im Allgemeinen und der Technik, mit der Transformation der Logik, mit den Prinzipien (nämlich denjenigen des zureichenden Grundes, der Individuation und der Notwendigkeit), mit Zukunft und Kontingenz sowie Vergänglichkeit, mit der Theorie der syllogistischen Folgerung, usw. Diese Themen werden stets in der Gegenüberstellung von Leibniz und Aristoteles behandelt – sie zeigen daher, wie Leibniz aristotelische Thesen übernahm, veränderte oder kritisierte. The search for the historical sources of Leibniz’s philosphy initially seems to be unending. All the essays in this volume outline more clearly the influence of Aristotle’s philosophy on Leibniz’s thought. In this context a fundamental aim is to contribute to the analysis of this philosophical relationship and to demonstrate that Aristotle’s philosophy, in the opinion of our authors, plays a decisive role in the understanding of Leibniz’s thought. The texts address fundamental themes of Leibniz’s logic and metaphysics, e.g. the basic concepts of ‘monads’ (and their ‘corporality’), ‘entelechy’ and ‘nous; the problem of individuation (individual, atomism, unity); substantial forms; knowledge in general, and technology; the transformation of logic; principles (namely those of sufficient grounds, of individuation and of necesssity); future and contingency and transientness; the theory of syllogistic deduction, etc. These themes are regularly considered in the comparison between Leibniz and Aristotle – they demonstrate how Leibniz took over, treated or criticised Aristotelian theses.

Download or read book The reform that Physics needs written by J. M. Arnaiz and published by Ediciones Go Beyond. This book was released on with total page 638 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book we develop step by step the FIRST ALGEBRA OF MAGNITUDES, the specific dyadic algebra for physical quantities, in order to rectify the sloppy hypothesis of «arithmetization» of Physics, normalized by the International System of Units in sections 2.1, 5.2 , 5.4.1 and 5.4.6 of his brochure SI, which is tolerated by a clueless scientific community. With dyadic algebra, full meaning is given to the meanings of the laws, equations and compound units of Physics, a sense that we all neglect today . As a culmination, the «DYSMETRIC» FORECAST is reached, with innumerable and far-reaching implications for the enrichment of physical models and the development of infinite innovations. In this way, the trap of «arithmetizing» Physics in which we all easily fall, even the most reputable and award-winning scientists, is ended. Except for one in the entire history of Physics, which was Newton, the only one who operated with magnitudes through the affinity of physical quantities with the elements of geometry, teaching us that, although Physics is not «arithmetizable», on the other hand it is it can be «geometrized». It seems incredible, but it is a grotesque fact that nowadays no one cares about what is really done when operating with physical magnitudes or what is the full meaning of the composite magnitudes or of the analytical formulations, which underlie all of Physics, for what no one should take a step without first having clarified this knowledge. On the contrary, it turns out that operations apparently as elementary as the multiplication of a meter by a kilogram have no arithmetic explanation, because no one identifies what the multiplier of that product is, which does not multiply numbers, but rather dyads or quantities of length and mass. Despite which, it seems that no one is bothered by such a ridiculous embarrassment. Can one call himself a physicist who cannot rigorously define this simple operation and does not care? Can a science be called Physics that lacks a coherent algebra to operate with its fundamental elements, the quantities of physical phenomena? The truth is that the defect is too gross not to take it into account. All this as a consequence of the fact that the current arithmetic hypothesis that postulates the abelian multiplicative group structure for the magnitudes is impossible. Such a structure is only valid for internal additive laws, it is not valid for external multiplicative laws. Obviously, this situation is shameful and pernicious for Physics, it is unsustainable and must be corrected as soon as possible. The dyadic algebra of magnitudes, in addition to giving meaning to the laws, equations, and compound magnitudes, reveals striking consequences, such as the non-existence of inverse elements of physical units, since heterogeneous multiplicative dyadic operations are not internal composition laws, but external. In turn, it naturally leads to «dysmetry», which makes it possible to represent the infinite physical realms of empty space and which radically transforms the vision of physical constants, incompatible in an absolute sense with «dysmetric» spaces, including the number pi and the speed of light.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: E-mail: [email protected] Las ecuaciones de la Física no relacionan sin más números, vectores o tensores de índole matemática, sino cantidades diádicas formadas con esos componentes vinculados a unidades diversas que indican cantidades de magnitudes naturales. Entonces, ¿por qué se opera con los entes diádicos de la Física como si fuesen elementos matemáticos puros?, ¿no supone esta ficción una aberración que envilece todo el conocimiento científico? Algunos autores han advertido de esta laguna crítica, que oculta a la Física un pilar tan fundamental. Pueden citarse preeminentes físicos como Clerk Maxwell o Max Planck, entre otros clásicos. Todos manifestaron a su manera los escrúpulos suscitados por la tradicional e injustificada forma de operar con las magnitudes físicas y sus unidades. Aquí se descubre, describe y resuelve tan notable paradoja de «aritmetización» de la Física y se construye un álgebra rigurosa y coherente para las cantidades de magnitudes. La Primera álgebra de magnitudes resuelve la hipótesis falsa del Sistema Internacional de Unidades, consistente en suponer negligentemente que las magnitudes físicas presenten estructura multiplicativa de grupo abeliano. No puede ser así, como se demuestra en este trabajo. Finalmente, se pone de manifiesto el camino lógico e inapelable que conduce del álgebra de magnitudes a los espacios «dismétricos», que se estudian con mayor profundidad en el segundo volumen de esta obra. La «dismetría» es una nueva y poderosa herramienta para representar con precisión los fenómenos físicos de un universo variable. Esta nueva Física acoge multitud de innovaciones, que sin duda sabrán apreciar muchos investigadores emprendedores. The equations of Physics do not simply relate numbers, vectors or tensors of a mathematical nature, but rather dyadic quantities formed with these components linked to various units that indicate quantities of natural magnitudes. So, why do we operate with the dyadic entities of Physics as if they were pure mathematical elements? Doesn't this fiction suppose an aberration that debases all scientific knowledge? Some authors have warned of this critical gap, which hides such a fundamental pillar from Physics. Pre-eminent physicists such as Clerk Maxwell or Max Planck, among other classics, can be cited. All of them expressed in their own way the scruples aroused by the traditional and unjustified way of operating with physical quantities and their units. Here such a remarkable «arithmeticization» paradox of Physics is discovered, described and solved and a rigorous and coherent algebra is constructed for the quantities of magnitudes. The First Algebra of Magnitudes resolves the false hypothesis of the International System of Units, consisting of negligently assuming that physical magnitudes have a multiplicative abelian group structure. It cannot be like that, as demonstrated in this work. Finally, the logical and unappealable path that leads from the algebra of magnitudes to the «dysmetric» spaces is revealed, which are studied in greater depth in the second volume of this work. «Dysmetry» is a powerful new tool for accurately representing the physical phenomena of a variable universe. This new Physics welcomes a multitude of innovations, which will undoubtedly be appreciated by many enterprising researchers.

This book was released on 2012-11 with total page 215 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Creo que muchos de los profesionales de la salud, no tienen una comprensión adecuada, acerca de lo que abarca la Medicina del Trabajo y las relaciones que esta tiene con la Epidemiología. Más aún, frecuentemente se encuentra una falta de comunicación entre el médico del trabajo y el epidemiólogo a pesar de su mutuo interés en la salud y la enfermedad de los trabajadores. Además, considero justo decir, que la mayoría de los estudiantes de medicina y de otras ciencias de la salud, consideran a la Medicina del Trabajo y a la Epidemiología, como unidades de aprendizaje aburridas e irrelevantes, las que se estudian únicamente porque se les obliga a ello. Otro punto de vista común, en lo referente a la Epidemiología, es que se le considera altamente matemática y demasiado compleja para entenderla. Con este pensamiento, he intentado escribir un libro de texto conciso, para médicos del trabajo, estudiantes de medicina y otros profesionales de la salud, que pueda explicar los conceptos básicos de la epidemiología de manera clara y sencilla. He tratado de suprimir la brecha existente en la comunicación entre el Médico del Trabajo como clínico y el epidemiólogo, describiendo algunos ejemplos clínicos a través del libro, explicando al Médico del Trabajo, por que es necesario el énfasis epidemiológico sobre el estudio de grupos de trabajadores, mas que de individuos.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers the most complete and up-to-date overview of the philosophical work of Evandro Agazzi, presently the most important Italian philosopher of science and one of the most influential in the world. Scholars from seven countries explore his contributions in areas ranging from philosophy of physics and general philosophy of science to bioethics, philosophy of mathematics and logic, epistemology of the social sciences and history of science, philosophy of language and artificial intelligence, education and anthropology, metaphysics and philosophy of religion. Agazzi developed a complete and coherent philosophical system, anticipating some of the turns in the philosophy of science after the crisis of logical empiricism and exerting an equal influence on continental hermeneutic philosophy. His work is characterized by an original synthesis of contemporary analytic philosophy, phenomenology and classical philosophy, including the scholastic tradition and these threads are reflected in the different backgrounds of the contributors to this book. While upholding the epistemological value of science against scepticism and relativism, Agazzi eschews scientism by stressing the equal importance of non-scientific forms of thought, such as metaphysics and religion. While defending the freedom of research as a cognitive enterprise, he argues that as a human and social practice it must nonetheless respect ethical constraints.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Philosophy and Literature in Latin America presents a unique and original view of the current state of development in Latin America of two disciplines that are at the core of the humanities. Divided into two parts, each section explores the contributions of distinguished American and Latin American experts and authors. The section on literature includes the literary activities of Latin Americans working in the United States, an area in which very little research has been demonstrated and, for that reason, will add an interesting new dimension to the field of Latin American studies.

Download or read book Grammatical Theory and Philosophy of Language in Antiquity written by Pierre Swiggers and published by Peeters Publishers. This book was released on 2002 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collective volume contains studies in the field of ancient grammar, poetics and philosophy of language. The contributions, written by specialists in the field, focus on central themes in the historiography of ancient linguistics, such as the status of grammar as a discipline in Antiquity, the relationship between poetics and grammatical theory, the constitution and development of the word class system, the descriptive format of grammars, the nature and description of specific word classes, the development of grammatical argumentation. In addition, several methodological issues in the study of ancient grammar and philosophy of language are dealt with: the problem of continuity vs. discontinuity in the history of linguistic thought, the role of schoolroom activities in the development of grammatical description and theory-formation, and problems concerning "tradition", "influence" and "originality" in ancient linguistics. The volume is rounded off with extensive indices of proper names, concepts and technical terms.
