An engaging critique of the science and metaphysics behind our understanding of the universe nbspThe James Webb Space Telescope when launched in 2021 will be the premier orbital observatory capable of studying every phase of the history of the universe from the afterglow of the Big Bang to the formation of our solar system Examining the theoretical basis for key experiments that have made this latest venture in astrophysics possible Bjørn Ekeberg reveals that scientific cosmology actually operates in a twilight zone between the physical and metaphysicalnbspMetaphysical Experiments explains how our current framework for understanding the universe the Big Bang theory is more determined by a deep faith in mathematical universality than empirical observation Ekeberg draws on philosophical insights by Spinoza Bergson Heidegger and Arendt on the critical perspectives of Latour Stengers and Serres and on cuttingedge physics research at the Large Hadron Collider to show how the universe of modern physics was invented to reconcile a Christian metaphysical premise with a claim to the theoretical unification of natureBy focusing on the nonmathematical assumptions underlying some of the most significant events in modern science Metaphysical Experiments offers a critical history of contemporary physics that demystifies such concepts as the universe particles singularity gravity blackbody radiation the speed of light waveparticle duality natural constants black holes dark matter and dark energy Ekebergs incisive reading of the metaphysical underpinnings of scientific cosmology offers an innovative account of how we understand our place in the universe

Modern physics was born from two great revolutions relativity and the quantum theory Relativity imposed a locality constraint on physical theories since nothing can go faster than light very distant events cannot influence one another Only in the last few decades has it become clear that the quantum theory violates this constraint The work of JS Bell has demonstrated that no local theory can return the predictions of quantum theory Thus it would seem that the central pillars of modern physics are contradictory

In this first booklength treatment of Descartes important and influential natural philosophy Daniel Garber is principally concerned with Descartes accounts of matter and motionthe joint between Descartes philosophical and scientific interests These accounts constitute the point at which the metaphysical doctrines on God the soul and body developed in writings like the Meditations give rise to physical conclusions regarding atoms vacua and the laws that matter in motion must obey Garber achieves a philosophically rigorous reading of Descartes that is sensitive to the historical and intellectual context in which he wrote What emerges is a novel view of this familiar figure at once unexpected and truer to the historical Descartes The book begins with a discussion of Descartes intellectual development and the larger project that frames his natural philosophy the complete reform of all the sciences After this introduction Garber thoroughly examines various aspects of Descartes physics the notion of body and its identification with extension Descartes rejection of the substantial forms of the scholastics his relation to the atomistic tradition of atoms and the void the concept of motion and the laws of motion including Descartes conservation principle his laws of the persistence of motion and his collision law and the grounding of his laws in God
