In this short and masterful volume, Mauro Ceruti, one of Italy's leading philosophers of complexity, narrates the history of scientific thought and documents the tremendous change of the past centuries. The result is not just the emergence of startling new information, but an excavation of our deepest assumptions, and the development of new ways of thinking about the world. From evolution to cosmology to mythology, Ceruti takes us on a journey through history and across disciplinary perspectives to present a view of the world--and of human thought--that is creative, contingent, and open to possibilities.

Abstract
In this short and masterful volume, Mauro Ceruti, one of Italy's leading philosophers of complexity, narrates the history of scientific thought and documents the tremendous change of the past centuries. The result is not just the emergence of startling new information, but an excavation of our deepest assumptions, and the development of new ways of thinking about the world. From evolution to cosmology to mythology, Ceruti takes us on a journey through history and across disciplinary perspectives to present a view of the world--and of human thought--that is creative, contingent, and open to possibilities.File allegato/i alla scheda:
