内容説明
Today, quantum field theory (QFT) - the mathematical and conceptual framework for contemporary elementary particle physics - is the best starting point for analysing the fundamental building blocks of the material world. QFT if taken seriously in its metaphysical implications yields a picture of the world that is at variance with central classical conceptions. The core of Kuhlmann's investigation consists in the analysis of various ontological interpretations of QFT (eg: substance ontologies as well as a process-ontological approach). Eventually, Kuhlmann proposes a dispositional trope ontology, according to which particularised properties and not things are the most basic entities, in terms of which all other entities are to be analysed (eg: as bundles of properties). This book was chosen for the 2009 Ontos-Award for research on analytical ontology and metaphysics by the German Society for Analytical Philosophy.
