ABOUT THIS BOOK
The inaugural volume of the Pitt-Konstanz series, devoted to the work of philosopher Adolf Grünbaum, encompasses the philosophical problems of space, time, and cosmology, the nature of scientific methodology, and the foundations of psychoanalysis.
REVIEWS
“This is a collection of 24 papers organized into five main sections: space, time, and cosmology; scientific rationality and methodology; philosophy of psychiatry; freedom and determinism; science and religion; and moral problems. The wealth of issues covered by these sections indicate the range of Grünbaum's thought, and the high standard of the volume's papers is a fitting testimony to the eminence and quality of Grünbaum's own writings.” —Canadian Philosophical Reviews
