Maggiori informazioni sul libro

This book explores quantum field theory (QFT) as a framework for understanding the fundamental aspects of the material world. Kuhlmann analyzes various ontological interpretations, advocating for a dispositional trope ontology where properties, rather than objects, are fundamental. It received the 2009 ontos-Award for its contributions to analytical ontology and metaphysics.
