| Summary: | This is a revised and updated edition of Graham Nerlich's classic book The Shape of Space. It develops a metaphysical account of space which treats it as a real and concrete entity. In particular, it shows that the shape of space plays a key explanatory role in space and spacetime theories. Arguing that geometrical explanation is very like causal explanation, Professor Nerlich prepares the ground for philosophical argument, and, using a number of novel examples, investigates how different spaces would affect perception differently. This leads naturally to conventionalism as a non-realist metaphysics of space, an account which Professor Nerlich criticises, rejecting its Kantian and positivistic roots along with Reichenbach's famous claim that even the topology of space is conventional. He concludes that there is, in fact, no problem of underdetermination for this aspect of spacetime theories, and offers an extensive discussion of the relativity of motion |

Arguing that geometrical explanation is very like causal explanation, Professor Nerlich prepares the ground for philosophical argument, and, using a number of novel examples, investigates how different spaces would affect perception differently. This leads naturally to conventionalism as a non-realist metaphysics of space, an account which Professor Nerlich criticises, rejecting its Kantian and positivistic roots along with Reichenbach's famous claim that even the topology of space is conventional. He concludes that there is, in fact, no problem of underdetermination for this aspect of spacetime theories, and offers an extensive discussion of the relativity of motion Naturwissenschaft Philosophie Space and time Relation (Philosophy) Science / Philosophy Raum (DE-588)4048561-4 gnd rswk-swf Philosophie (DE-588)4045791-6 gnd rswk-swf Zeit (DE-588)4067461-7 gnd rswk-swf Raum (DE-588)4048561-4 s Zeit (DE-588)4067461-7 s 1\p DE-604 Philosophie (DE-588)4045791-6 s 2\p DE-604 Erscheint auch als Druckausgabe 978-0-521-45014-0 Erscheint auch als Druckausgabe 978-0-521-45645-6 https://doi.org/10.1017/CBO9780511621130 Verlag URL des Erstveröffentlichers Volltext 1\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 2\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk |
