The current volume of the Parmenides Series “On Thinking”
addresses our deepest and most personal experience of the world,
the experience of “the present,” from a modern perspective
combining physics and philosophy. Many prominent researchers have
contributed articles to the volume, in which they present models
and express their opinions on and, in some cases, also their
skepticism about the subject and how it may be (or may not be)
addressed, as well as which aspects they consider most relevant in
this context. While Einstein might have once hoped that “the
present” would find its place in the theory of general
relativity, in a later discussion with Carnap he expressed his
disappointment that he was never able to achieve this goal. This
collection of articles provides a unique overview of different
modern approaches, representing not only a valuable summary for
experts, but also a nearly inexhaustible source of profound and
novel ideas for those who are simply interested in this question.
