Zusammenfassung: | These original essays explore the philosophical implications of Newton's work. They address a wide range of topics including Newton's influence on his contemporaries and successors such as Locke and Kant, and his views on the methodology of science, on absolute space and time, and on the Deity. Howard Stein compares Newton's refusal to lock natural philosophy into a preexisting system with the more rigid philosophical predilections of his near-contemporaries Christian Huygens and John Locke. Richard Arthur's commentary provides a useful gloss on Stein's essay. Lawrence Sklar puzzles over Newton's attempts to provide a unified treatment of the various real quantities: absolute space, time, and motion. According to Phillip Bricker's responding essay, however, the distinctions Sklar draws do not go to the heart of the debate between realists and representationalists. J.E. McGuire and John Carriero debate Newton's views of the relationship between the Deity and the nature of time and space. Peter Achinstein looks at the tension between Newton's methodological views and his advocacy of a corpuscular theory of light; he suggests that Newton could justify the latter by a weak inductive inference, but R.I.G. Hughes believes that this inference involves an induction Newton would be unwilling to make. Immanuel Kant's critique of Newton's view of gravity is discussed and amplified by Michael Friedman In response, Robert DiSalle raises a number of problems for Friedman's analysis. Errol Harris and Philip Grier extend the discussion to the present day and look at the ethical implications of Newton's work. |

Errol Harris and Philip Grier extend the discussion to the present day and look at the ethical implications of Newton's work.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="546" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">English.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="600" ind1="1" ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Newton, Isaac,</subfield><subfield code="d">1642-1727.</subfield><subfield code="t">Principia</subfield><subfield code="v">Congresses.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="600" ind1="1" ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Newton, Isaac,</subfield><subfield code="c">(Sir,),</subfield><subfield code="d">1642-1727.</subfield><subfield code="2">cct</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="630" ind1="0" ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Principia (Newton, Isaac)</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Mechanics</subfield><subfield code="x">Early works to 1800</subfield><subfield code="v">Congresses.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Celestial mechanics</subfield><subfield code="x">Early works to 1800</subfield><subfield code="v">Congresses.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Science</subfield><subfield code="x">Philosophy</subfield><subfield code="v">Congresses.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Mechanics</subfield><subfield code="v">Early works to 1800</subfield><subfield code="v">Congresses.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Celestial mechanics</subfield><subfield code="v">Early works to 1800</subfield><subfield code="v">Congresses.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="6"><subfield code="a">Mécanique</subfield><subfield code="v">Ouvrages avant 1800</subfield><subfield code="v">Congrès.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="6"><subfield code="a">Mécanique céleste</subfield><subfield code="v">Ouvrages avant 1800</subfield><subfield code="v">Congrès.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">sciences (philosophy)</subfield><subfield code="2">aat</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">SCIENCE</subfield><subfield code="x">Physics</subfield><subfield code="x">General.</subfield><subfield code="2">bisacsh</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">SCIENCE</subfield><subfield code="x">Mechanics</subfield><subfield code="x">General.</subfield><subfield code="2">bisacsh</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">SCIENCE</subfield><subfield code="x">Energy.</subfield><subfield code="2">bisacsh</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1="0" ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Mechanics</subfield><subfield code="x">Early works to 1800.</subfield><subfield code="2">cct</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1="0" ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Celestial mechanics</subfield><subfield code="x">Early works to 1800.</subfield><subfield code="2">cct</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1="0" ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Science</subfield><subfield code="x">Philosophy.</subfield><subfield code="2">cct</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Celestial mechanics</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Mechanics</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Science</subfield><subfield code="x">Philosophy</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1="1" ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Klassieke mechanica.</subfield><subfield code="2">gtt</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1="1" ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Filosofische aspecten.</subfield><subfield code="0">(NL-LeOCL)078506204</subfield><subfield code="2">gtt</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Engineering & Applied Sciences.</subfield><subfield code="2">hilcc</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Applied Mathematics.</subfield><subfield code="2">hilcc</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="655" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Early works</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="655" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Conference papers and proceedings</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="655" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Congressen (vorm)</subfield><subfield code="0">(NL-LeOCL)088142469</subfield><subfield code="2">gtt</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="700" ind1="1" ind2=" "><subfield code="a">Bricker, Phillip.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="700" ind1="1" ind2=" "><subfield code="a">Hughes, R.

Cambridge, Mass. : MIT Press, ©1990. 1 online resource (vi, 248 pages) text txt rdacontent computer c rdamedia online resource cr rdacarrier "A Bradford book." Papers presented to a conference at Yale University, November 6th and 7th, 1987--Preface "Published under the auspices of the Center for the History and Philosophy of Science of the Johns Hopkins University." Includes bibliographical references and index. Print version record. Philosophical perspectives on Newtonian science / R.I.G. Hughes -- On Locke, "the Great Huygenius, and the incomparable Mr. Newton" / Howard Stein -- Foils for Newton: comments on Howard Stein / Richard Arthur -- Real quantities and their sensible measures / Lawrence Sklar -- Absolute time versus absolute motion: comments on Lawrence Sklar / Phillip Bricker -- Predicates of pure existence: Newton on God's space and time / J.E. McGuire -- Newton on space and time: comments on J.E.

Hughes -- Kant and Newton: why gravity is essential to matter / Michael Friedman -- The "essential properties" of matter, space, and time: comments on Michael Friedman / Robert DiSalle -- Ethical implications of Newtonian science / Errol Harris -- Modern ethical theory and Newtonian science: comments on Errol Harris / Philip T. Grier. These original essays explore the philosophical implications of Newton's work. They address a wide range of topics including Newton's influence on his contemporaries and successors such as Locke and Kant, and his views on the methodology of science, on absolute space and time, and on the Deity. Howard Stein compares Newton's refusal to lock natural philosophy into a preexisting system with the more rigid philosophical predilections of his near-contemporaries Christian Huygens and John Locke. Richard Arthur's commentary provides a useful gloss on Stein's essay. Lawrence Sklar puzzles over Newton's attempts to provide a unified treatment of the various real quantities: absolute space, time, and motion. According to Phillip Bricker's responding essay, however, the distinctions Sklar draws do not go to the heart of the debate between realists and representationalists. J.E. McGuire and John Carriero debate Newton's views of the relationship between the Deity and the nature of time and space. Peter Achinstein looks at the tension between Newton's methodological views and his advocacy of a corpuscular theory of light; he suggests that Newton could justify the latter by a weak inductive inference, but R.I.G. Hughes believes that this inference involves an induction Newton would be unwilling to make. Immanuel Kant's critique of Newton's view of gravity is discussed and amplified by Michael Friedman In response, Robert DiSalle raises a number of problems for Friedman's analysis.
