DESCRIPTION:<p>11th Dimension Press is pleased to announce the birth of a new series of anthologies devoted to rebuilding a constructive discourse between the disciplines of physics and philosophy.&nbsp\; &Phi\; (or Phi) will be published biannually\, each focusing on a particular theme or problem.</p>\n<p>In his 1993 <em>Dreams of Final Theory</em>\, Nobel Prize winner Steven Weinberg disparages the value of philosophy in a chapter entitled\, &ldquo\;Against Philosophy.&rdquo\; Similarly derogatory statements are made by Stephen Hawking and Leonard Mlodinow in their <em>The Grand Design</em>.&nbsp\; More recently\, in his <em>A Universe from Nothing</em>\, Lawrence Krauss proclaims that\, &ldquo\;philosophy and theology are incapable of addressing by themselves the truly fundamental questions that perplex us about our existence.&rdquo\;&nbsp\; The inaugural edition of this series will attempt to move beyond the disparaging attitudes expressed by these preeminent physicists.</p>\n<p>11D Press invites papers of 5\,000 &ndash\; 10\,000 words that postulate and explore the various ways the two disciplines might reciprocally benefit each other.&nbsp\; Papers might explore issues like:</p>\n<ul>\n<li>&nbsp\;What methodological innovations can each discipline gain from the other?</li>\n<li>Conceptual convergences (e.g.\, metaphysical realism as expressed in the two disciplines)</li>\n<li>What insights can each discipline provide into the other&rsquo\;s &lsquo\;hard problems&rsquo\;?</li>\n<li>Philosophical insights that may have emerged from contemporary physics/Physical insights that may have emerged in contemporary philosophy.</li>\n</ul>\n<p>For further enquiries\, please email <a href="mailto:Scholar@11thdimensionpress.com">Scholar@11thdimensionpress.com</a> or visit phi.11thdimensionpress.com.</p>
