Protecting cognitive science from quantum theory
The relation between micro-objects and macro-objects advocated by Kim is even more problematic than Ross and Spurrett (RandS) argue, for reasons rooted in physics. RandS's own ontological proposals are much more satisfactory from a physicist's viewpoint but may still be problematic. A sati...

| description | The relation between micro-objects and macro-objects advocated by Kim is even more problematic than Ross and Spurrett (RandS) argue, for reasons rooted in physics. RandS's own ontological proposals are much more satisfactory from a physicist's viewpoint but may still be problematic. A satisfactory theory of macroscopic ontology must be as independent as possible of the details of microscopic physics. |
