It is not unusual among particle physicists to find the belief that elementary particles and forces determine everything in physics, chemistry, biology, geology, physiology all the way up to human behaviour. It is not just that physics underlies everything in the universe; it is the belief that everything in the universe reduces to the play of elementary particles under forces. Yet, there are other physicists who argue that this is an oversimplification of the relationship between physics and other domains. This book explores these debates and proposes a physics-motivated conception of emergence that leaves behind many of the problematic intuitions shaping the philosophical conceptions. It would be suitable for physicists, scientists, undergraduate and postgraduate science students interested in reduction and emergence debates.
Key Features:
- Explains need for an ontological form of emergence as an alternative to reductionism and strong emergence.
- Situates physics debates about reduction and emergence historically.
- Elucidates and illustrates the contextual emergence pattern in physics and other sciences.
- Discusses broader implications of the pattern of emergence in physics.
