Substance and Function by Ernst Cassirer Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Hardcover Condition Brand New Description "Substance and Function and Einstein's Theory of Relativity" is a landmark contribution to the philosophy of science and epistemology by the renowned Neo-Kantian philosopher Ernst Cassirer. In the first part of this profound inquiry, Cassirer traces the historical development of logical concepts, contrasting the traditional Aristotelian concept of substance-which relies on abstraction and classification-with the modern mathematical concept of function. He argues that scientific progress is marked by a shift away from seeking the absolute essence of things toward understanding the relational and functional structures of the second part of the work applies these epistemological findings to the revolutionary developments in contemporary physics, specifically "Einstein's Theory of Relativity". Cassirer demonstrates how Einstein's theories represent the logical culmination of the transition from substance-based thinking to functional thinking, providing a robust philosophical foundation for the new physical world-view.
