The Many Worlds of Hugh Everett III: Multiple Universes, Mutual Assured Destruction, and the Meltdown of a Nuclear Family
ISBN: 9780199659241 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 464 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych.

Using Everett's unpublished papers (recently discovered in his son's basement) and dozens of interviews with his friends, colleagues, and surviving family members, Byrne paints, for the general reader, a detailed portrait of the genius who invented an astonishing way of describing our complex universe from the inside. Everett's mathematical model (called the "universal wave function") treats all possible events as "equally real,"...

God and Realism
ISBN: 9780754614678 / Angielski / Miękka / 2003 / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Peter Byrne's study of God and realism offers a critical survey of issues surrounding the realist interpretation of theism and theology.

He considers a number of important ideas and thinkers supporting global anti-realism, and finds them all wanting. After the refutation of global anti-realism, Byrne considers a number of important arguments in favour of the notion...

Kant on God

Peter Byrne presents a detailed study of the role of the concept of God in Kant's Critical Philosophy.

Examining Kant's account of religious language, Byrne highlights both the realist and anti-realist elements contained within it. The notion of the highest good is then explored, with its constituent elements - happiness and virtue, in pursuit of an assessment of how far Kant establishes that we must posit God. The...

Religion Defined and Explained
ISBN: 9780333538418 / Angielski / Twarda / 1993 / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. This book examines a selection of major types of theory explaining religion: religious, philosophical, sociological, socio-economic and psychological. It treats of the presuppositions behind such theories and the grounds of their necessity and validity. It looks at major styles in the definition of religion. It argues that the case for making religion the subject of large scale theorising has not been made and contends that the explanation of religion proceeds better by concentrating on the specifics of religious history and the interconnections between religious ideas.
