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.
