Charles Darwin es, sin dudas, el arquitecto de la moderna biología evolutiva. Pero El origen de las especies es mucho más que una teoría biológica: es un conjunto de principios que comportan un tremendo impacto filosófico más allá de los límites de la ciencia natural. Y, dado que las hipótesis de Darwin involucran a la humanidad, se hace necesario examinar minuciosamente sus implicaciones éticas y epistemológicas. Michael Ruse, autoridad mundialmente reconocida en la historia y en la filosofía del darwinismo, ofrece en esta obra el análisis definitivo de la naturaleza filosófica del pensamiento de Darwin, y de su impacto no solamente sobre las ciencias naturales sino también sobre las ciencias humanas. Con un lenguaje claro, desprovisto de tecnicismos, Ruse establece con precisión el estatuto del pensamiento evolucionista como una teoría genuina, las implicaciones filosóficas, epistemológicas y éticas del darwinismo, así como su impacto en las modernas explicaciones naturalistas de la religión, y discute muchos de los sentimientos y supuestos antidarwinistas expuestos por los creyentes del movimiento creacionista.

Scientists, historians, philosophers and theologians often engage in debates on the limitations and mutual interactions of their respective fields of study. Serious discussions are often overshadowed by the mass-produced popular and semi-popular literature on science and religion, as well as by the political agendas of many of the actors in these debates. For some, reducing religion and science to forms of social discourse is a possible way out from epistemological overlapping between them; yet is there room for religious faith only when science dissolves into one form of social discourse? The religion thus rescued would have neither rational legitimisation nor metaphysical validity, but if both scientific and religious theories try to make absolute claims on all possible aspects of reality then conflict between them seems almost inevitable. In this book leading authors in the field of science and religion, including William Carroll, Steve Fuller, Karl Giberson and Roger Trigg, highlight the oft-neglected and profound philosophical foundations that underlie some of the most frequent questions at the boundary between science and religion: the reality of knowledge, and the notions of creation, life and design. In tune with Mariano Artigas’s work, the authors emphasise that these are neither religious nor scientific but serious philosophical questions.

This book traces the development during the 20th century of four central themes in the philosophy of science. The themes, chosen for their importance are expounded in a way which does not presuppose any previous knowledge of philosophy or science. The book thus constitutes an excellent introduction to the philosophy of science.

Hombres y documentos de la filosofía española, la obra mayor en siete tomos de Gonzalo Díaz, ha necesitado para nacer completa casi un cuarto de siglo (1980-2003). Es normal que en tan largo periodo de tiempo no haya podido recoger en las sucesivas entregas alfabéticas a filósofos que en el momento de ver luz el tomo correspondiente a la letra de sus apellidos, o no tenían, por su juventud, un número mínimo suficiente de publicaciones, o no pudieron ser incluidos en su momento a pesar de su madurez. En vista de ello, Gonzalo Díaz y María Dolores Abad, su esposa, pensaron en unos addenda que dieran cuenta de los "ausentes", más un tomo de índices destinado a organizar sistemáticamente la ingente cantidad de materiales acumulada. Pero varias circunstancias impedieron que los creadores de esta magna obra pudieran rematar su proyecto. Pues bien, condiciones favorables que se dieron en el primer quinquenio de nuestro siglo en el entorno del hispanismo filosófico español, han permitido que el benemérito esfuerzo del matrimonio Díaz-Abad pueda continuar, y su diccionario, obra única en su género por abarcar toda la historia española y toda la enciclopedia filosófica, se haya ahora enriquecido y actualizo, pues la mayor parte de los autores aquí incluidos, nacidos entre 1930 y 1970, son testimonio fidedigno de una parte de la filosofía que hoy se hace en España. Cuando estén publicados todos los Addenda, se habrá cerrado en papel la más importante obra bio-bibliográfica de la filosofía española; obra de necesaria consulta para quien desee aproximarse al patrimonio filosófico español de todos los tiempos.

Realism and the Aim of Science is one of the three volumes of Karl Popper’s Postscript to the Logic of scientific Discovery. The Postscript is the culmination of Popper’s work in the philosophy of physics and a new famous attack on subjectivist approaches to philosophy of science. Realism and the Aim of Science is the first volume of the Postcript. Popper here formulates and explains his non-justificationist theory of knowledge: science aims at true explanatory theories, yet it can never prove, or justify, any theory to be true, not even if is a true theory. Science must continue to question and criticise all its theories, even those that happen to be true. Realism and the Aim of Science presents Popper’s mature statement on scientific knowledge and offers important insights into his thinking on problems of method within science.

The 1977 lectures of the International School for the History of Science at Erice in Sicily were devoted to that vexing but inexorable problem, the nature of scientific discovery. With all that has been written, by scientists themselves, by historians and philosophers and social theorists, by psycholo gists and psychiatrists, by logicians and novelists, the problem remains elusive. Happily we are able to bring the penetrating lectures from Erice that summer to a wider audience in this volume of theoretical investigations and detailed case studies. The ancient and lovely town of Erice in Northwest Sicily, 750 m above the sea, was famous throughout the Mediterranean for its temple of the goddess of nature, Venus Erycina, said to have been built by Daedalus. As philosophers and historians of the natural sciences, we hope that the stimulating atmo sphere of Erice will to some extent be transmitted by these pages. We are especially grateful to that generous and humane physician and historian of science, Dr. Vincenzo Cappelletti, himself a creative scientist, for his collaboration in bringing this work to completion. We admire his intelligent devotion to fostering creative interaction between scientists and historians of science as Director of the School of History of Science within the great Ettore Majorana Centre for Scientific Culture at Erice, as well as for his imaginative leadership of the Istituto della Encic10pedia Italiana.

1. 1 THE STUDY OF CONFLICT Polemos Pantoon Pater Heraclitus Conflict on all levels of organic existence is pervasive, persistent, ubiquitous. Conflict is the universal experience of all life forms. Organisms are bound in multiple conflict-configurations and -coalitions, which have their own dynamic and their own logic. This does not mean, however, that the more paroxysmal forms of conflict behaviour, naked violence and destruction, are also universal. Conflict and cooperation are always intertwined. Conflicts do, however, have a propensity to gravitate towards violence. There is, as Pettman (1975) pointed out, no accepted or agreed list of the social units by which conflicts might be classified. To talk of conflict in intra personal, inter-personal, familial, group, class, ethnic, religious, intra-state or inter-state terms is to assume, perhaps erroneously, that 'each kind of social unit, having its own range of size, structure, and institutions, will also have its own modes of interaction and thus its own patterns of conflict with other social units' (Fink, 1968) like and unlike itself. Such an assumption merits scrutiny on its own, since, despite the plausibility of some sort of analytical link between the parties to a conflict and the nature of the confrontation that ensues, the link should be demonstrated and not allowed to stand by assertion alone. This volume is devoted to one type of analysis of conflict, the socio biological one.

Illustrated with hundreds of illuminating line drawings, this classic guide reveals virtually every secret of a building's function: how it stands up, keeps its occupants safe and comfortable, gets built, grows old, and dies--and why some buildings do this so much better than others. Drawing on things he's learned from the many buildings he himself designed (and in some cases built with his own hands), Edward Allen explains complex phenomena such as the role of the sun in heating buildings and the range of structural devices that are used for support, from trusses and bearing walls to post-tensioned concrete beams and corbeled vaults. He stresses the importance of intelligent design in dealing with such problems as overheating and overcooling, excessive energy use, leaky roofs and windows, fire safety, and noisy interiors. He serves up some surprises: thermal insulation is generally a better investment than solar collectors; board fences are not effective noise barriers; there's one type of window that can be left open during a rainstorm. The new edition emphasizes "green" architecture and eco-conscious design and construction. It features a prologue on sustainable construction, and includes new information on topics such as the collapse of the World Trade Center, sick building syndrome, and EIFS failures and how they could have been prevented. Allen also highlights the array of amazing new building materials now available, such as self-cleaning glass, photovoltaics, transparent ceramics, cloud gel, and super-high-strength concrete and structural fibers. Edward Allen makes it easy for everyone--from armchair architects and sidewalk superintendents to students of architecture and construction--to understand the mysteries and complexities of even the largest building, from how it recycles waste and controls the movement of air, to how it is kept alive and growing.

The Mind of the Universe, written by a philosopher and physicist, provides a study in which a competent presentation of physical discoveries is combined with a rational search for philosophical presuppositions of science. An important contribution to the dialogue between religion and science, it will inspire new attempts at bridging science and philosophy in their common search for the hidden meaning of the new scientific theories.
