What in the World is Universe? : A Prime Example
Journal Title: Philosophy and Cosmology - Year 2016, Vol 17, Issue
Abstract
This writing attempts to capture mind and matter to rational description by focusing on disparity between scientific method as it extracts concepts and discards particulars and ordinary cognitive functioning that extends from proximal experience. Discourse underlined with the concept of strict uniqueness of world entities is intended to examine critically paradox and solution efforts in the mathematical and cosmological sciences as problems of zero, infinity: vast and small numbers and discreteness are addressed.
