As is well known, the interrelationship between philosophy and science underwent a profound change in the early modern period, in the course of which the sciences freed themselves from the conceptual framework of traditional metaphysics. The contributions of the volume focus on the eighteenth century, the critical and quite contradictory final phase of this process. The volume distinguishes itself by tracing this transition process not only in the obvious case of the new mechanics - Newtonianism and analytic mechanics - but also by addressing new speculative philosophies of nature - early modern atomism or imponderable physics - and new metaphysical controversies such as the body-mind problem (Can matter think?) as well as developments in special scientific fields such as cosmology/astronomy and natural history. The volume is written by historians of philosophy and the sciences of the early modern period and is intended primarily for specialists and students in these fields of knowledge. However, it is certainly also interesting and useful for cultural historians working on this period. 001476062 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed August 25, 2023). 001476062 60010 $$aLeibniz, Gottfried Wilhelm,$$cFreiherr von,$$d1646-1716. 001476062 60010 $$aNewton, Isaac,$$d1642-1727. 001476062 60010 $$aKant, Immanuel,$$d1724-1804. 001476062 650_0 $$aPhilosophy and science$$xHistory$$y18th century. 001476062 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001476062 7001_ $$aLefèvre, Wolfgang,$$d1941- 001476062 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aLefèvre, Wolfgang$$tBetween Leibniz, Newton, and Kant$$dCham : Springer International Publishing AG,c2023$$z9783031343391 001476062 830_0 $$aBoston studies in the philosophy and history of science ;$$vv. 341. 001476062 852__ $$bebk 001476062 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-031-34340-7$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001476062 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1476062$$pGLOBAL_SET 001476062 980__ $$aBIB 001476062 980__ $$aEBOOK 001476062 982__ $$aEbook 001476062 983__ $$aOnline 001476062 994__ $$a92$$bISE
