Aided by the contributions of more recent thinkers, such as Albert Einstein, Werner Heisenberg, Michael B. Foster, and Hans Jonas, Conceiving Nature shows how the mechanics of matter in motion, the physics of electromagnetism, and chemical process provide all that is needed for life to emerge and give rise to rational animals capable of knowing nature in truth. The work contains detailed discussions of much of Aristotle's writing on nature, of Kant's Metaphysical Foundations of Natural Science, and of Hegel's Philosophy of Nature. 606 $aPhilosophy$xHistory 606 $aScience$xPhilosophy 606 $aMetaphysics 606 $aHistory of Philosophy 606 $aPhilosophy of Science 606 $aMetaphysics 615 0$aPhilosophy$xHistory. 615 0$aScience$xPhilosophy. 615 0$aMetaphysics. 615 14$aHistory of Philosophy. 615 24$aPhilosophy of Science. 615 24$aMetaphysics. 676 $a180-190 700 $aWinfield$b Richard Dien$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0148978 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910255221503321 996 $aConceiving Nature after Aristotle, Kant, and Hegel$92202202 997 $aUNINA
