This book presents a philosophy of science, based on
panenmentalism: an original modal metaphysics, which is realist
about individual pure (non-actual) possibilities and rejects the
notion of possible worlds. The book systematically constructs a new
and novel way of understanding and explaining scientific progress,
discoveries, and creativity. It demonstrates that a metaphysics of
individual pure possibilities is indispensable for explaining and
understanding mathematics and natural sciences. It examines the
nature of individual pure possibilities, actualities,
mind-dependent and mind-independent possibilities, as well as
mathematical entities. It discusses in detail the singularity of
each human being as a psychical possibility. It analyses striking
scientific discoveries, and illustrates by means of examples of the
usefulness and vitality of individual pure possibilities in the
sciences.
