- Philosophie
Einstein's General Theory of Relativity links the metrical structure of the cosmic order (or "cosmology") to the contingent distributions of matter and energy throughout the universe, one of the chief areas of investigation in astrophysics. However, presently we have system of uniform relations whereby we can make our cosmological measurements intelligible. This book addresses "the measurement problem of cosmology," using both historical ideas (such as A.N. Whitehead's work in the 1920s) and contemporary evidence and theories.
Gary L. Herstein is assistant professor of philosophy at Southern Illinois University in Carbondale, Illinois. His areas of research are the philosophy of Whitehead and the theory of measurement.
