Description

Reviving and modernizing the tradition of post Darwinian naturalism, "The Orders of Nature" draws on philosophy and the natural sciences to present a naturalistic theory of reality. Conceiving of nature as systems, processes, and structures that exhibit diverse properties that can be hierarchically arranged, Lawrence Cahoone sketches a systematic metaphysics based on the following orders of nature: physical, material, biological, mental, and cultural. Using recent work in the science of complexity, hierarchical systems theory, and nonfoundational approaches to metaphysics, Cahoone analyzes these orders with explanations of the underlying science, covering a range of topics that includes general relativity and quantum field theory; chemistry and inorganic complexity; biology and telenomic explanation, or purpose; the theory of mind and mental causation as an animal phenomenon; and the human mind s unique cultural abilities. The book concludes with an exploration of what answers such a theory of naturalism can provide to questions about values and God."
