Dear all, Alastair Wilson (Birmingham) will be giving a paper entitled “Emergent Contingency" (abstract below) at the Serious Metaphysics Group this coming Wednesday.
The seminar will run in our usual time from 4:30 to 6:00pm, in the Board Room of the Philosophy Faculty. Hope to see you there, Carlo Abstract: I develop and defend a reductive account of objective contingency in nature, drawing on resources from quantum mechanics. I distinguish three degrees of naturalistic involvement in the theory of modality; the proposed quantum modal realism is naturalistic in all three senses. I sketch some consequences of the account for methodology in metaphysics. _____________________________________________________ To unsubscribe from the CamPhilEvents mailing list, or change your membership options, please visit the list information page: http://bit.ly/CamPhilEvents List archive: http://bit.ly/CamPhilEventsArchive Please note that CamPhilEvents doesn't accept email attachments.
