Scientific Theism Versus Materialism - Arvid Reuterdahl - Bog

Scientific Theism Versus Materialism: The Space-Time Potential is a philosophical treatise written by Arvid Reuterdahl in 1920. The book explores the concept of scientific theism and its relationship with materialism. Reuterdahl argues that scientific theism offers a more comprehensive and accurate understanding of the world than materialism, which he believes is limited by its focus on the material world.The book is divided into three sections. The first section provides an overview of the history of scientific thought and the development of materialism as a philosophical perspective. Reuterdahl argues that materialism arose in response to the limitations of traditional religious belief systems, but that it ultimately fails to provide a complete understanding of the world.The second section of the book presents Reuterdahl's concept of scientific theism. He argues that scientific theism is based on the idea that the universe is a manifestation of a divine intelligence, and that this intelligence can be understood through scientific inquiry. Reuterdahl believes that scientific theism offers a more comprehensive understanding of the world than materialism, as it takes into account both the material and spiritual aspects of existence.The final section of the book explores the implications of Reuterdahl's ideas for various areas of human knowledge, including physics, biology, and psychology. He argues that a scientific theistic perspective can offer new insights into these fields and lead to a more holistic understanding of the world.Overall, Scientific Theism Versus Materialism: The Space-Time Potential offers a thought-provoking exploration of the relationship between science, religion, and philosophy. Reuterdahl's ideas challenge traditional materialist perspectives and offer a new way of thinking about the world that emphasizes the interconnectedness of all things.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
