In recent times a new dialogue has begun between the natural
sciences and the humanities. This is particularly true of physics
and philosophy, whose sphere of mutual interest expanded
significantly with the advent of quantum mechanics. Among other
topics, the discussion covers the evolution of theories, the role
of mathematics in the physical sciences, the perception and
cognition of nature and definitions of space and time. In contrast
to the custom of the last two centuries, mathematics - the language
of physics - is once again finding a respected place in the
discourse of philosophers. The interdisciplinary communication
between philosophers, mathematicians and physicists will be given
new impetus by the thoughtful and wide-ranging contributions to
this book.
