Two chapters (Chaps. 6 and 7), which discussed two speci?c groups of arguments against the reality of spacetime, have been transformed into - pendices (A and B). Two new chapters (Chaps. 6 and 10) have been added. Chapter 6, entitled Why Is the Issue of the Nature of Spacetime So Imp- tant?, elaborates on what was Sect. 5. 6 of the ?rst edition, and addresses some recent work on the nature of spacetime – for example, the growing (or evolving) block universe model of the world, which has recently been - vived by several physicists as what appears to be the last remaining alter- tive to the Minkowski absolute four-dimensional world (after it had become an undeniable fact that three-dimensionalism, or presentism, contradicts the relativistic experimental evidence). Chapter 10, entitled Spacetime and the Nature of Quantum Objects and based on what used to be Sects. 6. 2 and 6. 3 in the ?rst edition, explores the implications of the issue of the nature of spacetime for quantum physics, in order to see whether it can provide some insight i | | 出版日期 | Book 2009Latest edition | | 关键词 | Existence; Minkowski spacetime; Relativity; Time flow; issue; logic; philosophy | | 版次 | 2 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-642-01962-3 | | isbn_softcover | 978-3-642-24235-9 | | isbn_ebook | 978-3-642-01962-3Series ISSN 1612-3018 Series E-ISSN 2197-6619 | | issn_series | 1612-3018 | | copyright | Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2009 |
