Volume 34 Uwe Meixner Modelling Metaphysics The Metaphysics of a Model |
||
| Ask a question about this title | |||
This book models and simulates metaphysics by presenting the metaphysics of a model. The small size of the model makes it possible to treat metaphysical matters with a more than usual systematicity and comprehensiveness. In the mirror of sustained analogy, simulation-metaphysics offers a wealth of insights on the real thing: on the doctrines, the methods, and the epistemology of metaphysics. About the Author Uwe Meixner is professor of philosophy at the University of Regensburg, Germany, and guest lecturer at the Saints Methodius and Cyril Theological Institute in Minsk, Belarus. He is one of the most distinguished metaphysicians in Germany. His main interests are metaphysics, the philosophy of mind, logic, and the history of philosophy. Main publications: Ereignis und Substanz (1997), Axiomatic Formal Ontology (1997), Theorie der Kausalität (2001), The Two Sides of Being (2004), The Theory of Ontic Modalities (2006). He is co-editor of the journals “Logical Analysis & History of Philosophy” and “Metaphysica”.
