QFT if taken seriously in its metaphysical implications yields a picture of the world that is at variance with central classical conceptions. The core of Kuhlmann's investigation consists in the analysis of various ontological interpretations of QFT, e.g. substance ontologies as well as a process-ontological approach. Eventually, Kuhlmann proposes a dispositional trope ontology, a 410 0$aPhilosophische Analyse ;$vBd. 37. 606 $aOntology 606 $aPhysics 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aOntology. 615 0$aPhysics. 676 $a530.14 676 $a530.143 700 $aKuhlmann$b Meinard$0961050 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910452722603321 996 $aThe ultimate constituents of the material world$92457223 997 $aUNINA
