Logical Empiricism and the Physical Sciences - From Philosophy of Nature to Philosophy of Physics: Sebastian Lutz, Adam Tamas... Logical Empiricism and the Physical Sciences - From Philosophy of Nature to Philosophy of Physics

R1,284 Discovery Miles 12 840 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

This volume has two primary aims: to trace the traditions and changes in methods, concepts, and ideas that brought forth the logical empiricists’ philosophy of physics and to present and analyze the logical empiricists’ various and occasionally contrary ideas about the physical sciences and their philosophical relevance. These original chapters discuss these developments in their original contexts and social and institutional environments, thus showing the various fruitful conceptions and philosophies behind the history of 20th-century philosophy of science. Logical Empiricism and the Natural Sciences is divided into three thematic sections. Part I surveys the influences on logical empiricism’s philosophy of science and physics. It features chapters on Maxwell’s role in the worldview of logical empiricism, on Reichenbach’s account of objectivity, on the impact of Poincaré on Neurath’s early views on scientific method, Frank’s exchanges with Einstein about philosophy of physics, and on the forgotten role of Kurt Grelling. Part II focuses on specific physical theories, including Carnap’s and Reichenbach’s positions on Einstein’s theory of general relativity, Reichenbach’s critique of unified field theory, and the logical empiricists’ reactions to quantum mechanics. The third and final group of chapters widens the scope to philosophy of science and physics in general. It includes contributions on von Mises’ frequentism; Frank’s account of concept formation and confirmation; and the interrelations between Nagel’s, Feigl’s, and Hempel’s versions of logical empiricism. This book offers a comprehensive account of the logical empiricists’ philosophy of physics. It is a valuable resource for researchers interested in the history and philosophy of science, philosophy of physics, and the history of analytic philosophy.

Bachelorarbeit aus dem Jahr 2005 im Fachbereich Gesundheitswissenschaften, Note: 2,0, Universitat Bielefeld, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Mit der Verabschiedung der Ottawa Charta durch die World Health Organization (WHO) im Jahre 1986 hat die Bedeutung einer gezielten Forderung der physischen Gesundheitsressourcen ebenso zugenommen wie jene der psychischen und sozialen Ressourcen. Es wird betrachtet, unter welchen Kriterien Gesundheitssport und Sportaktivitat zu sehen sind. Bezuglich der Sportteilnahme werden Erklarungstheorien und -modelle aufgefuhrt sowie Interventionstheorien. Anschliessend geht es um Motive und Determinanten sportlicher Aktivitat. Das alles soll dazu beitragen, Sportverhalten besser verstehen zu konnen und ist bei der Betrachtung des Ausmasses der Sportaktivitat in Deutschland sowie der Potenziale der Gesundheitsforderung im letzten Kapitel der Arbeit von Bedeutung. Weiter wird dargestellt, wie Sportvereine in Deutschland organisiert und strukturiert sind. Welche Rolle nehmen Sportvereine in der Gesundheitsforderung ein und welche Konzepte und Programme gibt es? Soziale Praventionstrager und auch Sportvereine sollen gemass dem Praventionsgesetzentwurf Leistungen zur Verhaltenspravention erbringen, um die Veranderung gesundheitsbezogener Verhaltensweisen der Versicherten zu unterstutzen und damit gesundheitliche Risiken zu vermindern sowie gesundheitliche Ressourcen und Fahigkeiten zu starken. Wenn man 2004 nach der Bestandserhebung des Deutschen Sportbundes (DSB) von circa 27,5 Millionen Mitgliedern in Sportvereinen ausgehen kann, dann kann sich Gesundheitsforderung im Setting Sportverein" an viele Menschen in Deutschland richten. Dabei ist in der Arbeit von Interesse, welche bisherigen und aktuellen Gesundheitsforderungsmassnahmen es im Zusammenhang mit Sportvereinen gibt. Inwiefern ist Gesundheitsforderung durch sportliche Aktivitat als gemeinsames Ziel der Sportwissenschaften und von Public Health zu sehen? Inwieweit verfolgen und erreichen b
