The Rationality of Metaphysical Intuitions in the Construction of a Scientific Image of the Universe
Balkan Journal of Philosophy 7 (1):31-36 (2015)
Abstract
The author argues that for the last 2,500 years, the science concerning the universe (o kosmoV) has been based on two metaphysical intuitions—the atomic one for more than 2,400 years, and the string intuition in the second half of the twentieth century.My notes
