Synchronicity: On the Spectrum of Mind and Matter
“I have no doubt that the placing side by side of the points of view of a physicist and a psychologist will also prove to be a form of reflection.” —Wolfgang Pauli “Since physicists are the only people nowadays who would be able to deal with such a concept successfully, it is from a physicist... read more! »

Mathematics and Other Realities
The question of what the world in which we live consists of is as old as mankind itself. In philosophical jargon, this is the question of the ontological basis of reality. With the growing success of physics and other sciences, the idea of one fundamental ontology, that of particles and fields, became dominant as a... read more! »

For centuries, either explicitly or implicitly, metaphysics created the background and organizing principles for scientific research. But as the 20th century progressed there arose a number of challenges... read more! »
