A Brief Philosophical Encounter with Science and Medicine
We show a lot of respect for science today. To back up our claims, we tend to appeal to scientific methods. It seems that we all agree that these methods are effective for gaining the truth. We can ask why science has its special status as a supplier of knowledge about our external world and our bodies. Of course, one should not always trust what scientists say. Nonetheless, epistemological jus...

متن کاملOperators in Nature, Science, Technology, and Society: Mathematical, Logical, and Philosophical Issues
The concept of an operator is used in a variety of practical and theoretical areas. Operators, as both conceptual and physical entities, are found throughout the world as subsystems in nature, the human mind, and the manmade world. Operators, and what they operate, i.e., their substrates, targets, or operands, have a wide variety of forms, functions, and properties. Operators have explicit phil...
متن کاملPhilosophical Issues in Computer Science
The traditional overlap between computer science and philosophy centres upon the issue of in what sense a computer may be said to think. A lesser known issue of potential common interest is the ontology of the semantics computer science assigns to programming languages such as Pascal or Java. We argue that the usual purely mathematical approach of denotational semantics necessarily excludes imp...
متن کاملMathematical Proceedings of the Cambridge Philosophical Society
We study Einstein metrics on smooth compact 4-manifolds with an edge-cone singularity of specified cone angle along an embedded 2-manifold. To do so, we first derive modified versions of the Gauss–Bonnet and signature theorems for arbitrary Riemannian 4-manifolds with edge-cone singularities, and then show that these yield non-trivial obstructions in the Einstein case. We then use these integra...
