Bücher der Reihe Einstein Meets Magritte: An Interdisciplinary Reflection on Science, Nature, Art, Human Action and Society

How do science, producing knowledge and technology, and art, producing revelations and sensations, confront each other? The meeting between Einstein and Magritte is presented as an experiment, with which we hope to go beyond the many programmatical appeals, in order to cut across art and science.

The book presents an interdisciplinary collection of analyses that discuss the impact of market economy on our culture in the post-Berlin Wall era. It contains two parts. The first focuses on the commercialisation of science and education. The second elaborates on the multiple and diverse relation between art and capital.

Quantum mechanics is a discipline which deserves and receives special attention in this book, mainly because it is fascinating and, hence, appeals to the general public.

In this book the editors brought together outstanding articles concerning intercultural aesthetics. The book is divided into two parts, yet one can sense a clear unity throughout the whole book.

A World in Transition, Humankind and Nature is appropriately entitled after its aim for an intrinsic property of reality: change.

Quantum Structures and the Nature of Reality is a collection of papers written for an interdisciplinary audience about the quantum structure research within the International Quantum Structures Association.

The different sections of the book discuss the foundations and philosophy of complexity evolution, its mathematical and computer models, its explanation of self-organising and living systems, the insights it provides into the origin of mind, language and culture, and its practical applications in areas such as management and system design.

This book considers philosophy to be more than mere reflection. In part, this book re-evaluates the philosophy of Leo Apostel, who dedicated his life to the investigation of the use of philosophy in everyday life.
