The 'Scientific Revolutions' and 'paradigm shifts' as well
as interaction of physical science and philosophy of the
time, such as postivistic philosophy of Mach and Carnap
and their influence on Quantum Mechanics (QM) and Relativity. ...

Physics Time-Line
From the Copernican Revolution to superstrings, a chronology of more than 500 of the greatest discoveries in natural philosophy.
Symmetry in Physics
Group of motions determines the conservation laws - the fundamental principles of physics.
Identity and Individuality in Quantum Theory
Assesses the metaphysical implications of quantum theory by considering the impact of the theory on our understanding of objects as individuals with well defined identity conditions. From the Stanford Encyclopedia, by Steven French.
Overview and history of 'quantum weirdness'
More in subcategories: Quantum Reality and Locality, Seeds and Escapes etc
Philosophy and Foundations links from MIT
General + Causality + CP Violation + Interpretation of Quantum Mechanics + Spacetime Structure + Time
Experiments in Physics
Entry from the Stanford Encyclopedia.
Robert Rosen - Understanding Life and Physics
A resource site on the works of Robert Rosen, who showed that biological systems demonstrate complexities and physics beyond the strictures of Newtonian mechanics.
Space and Time: Inertial Frames
Frames of reference relative to which motion and rest are measured; by Robert DiSalle.
Philosophy of Physics
great collection of link from Kyoto University: philosophers-physicists.
MathPages: Physics
Collection of essays, not always orthodox, but always lucid, on historical and important current issues in mathematics and physics.
Consciousness, Life and Meaning
Essay on evolution, consciousness
Shakespeare and Thermodynamics - Dam the Second Law!
What the second law of thermodynamics is all about, and how it is constantly 'dammed' or blocked by activation energy
The Bactra Reviews
This is an excellent set of reviews, not limited to physics.
Philosophy of Science
Essays on problems, history of physics, mathematics,..
Thermodynamic Principles for the Social Sciences
Concept of Entropy, in physics, and may be beyond.
PhysicsWeb - This is Your Philosophy
Are physicists realists? - results of a poll.
Discrete Physics: A New Kind of Science?
Reflections on Stephen Wolfram's new book
Review of "The Emperor's New Mind", by Roger Penrose
His exploration is so much more serious philosophically than almost anything that has been done since Einstein and Schrodinger
Science, pseudoscience and Society
Good links: paper by Feynman on paranormal 'sciences', Sokal Affair (use of pseudo-physics in social sciences), critique of Kuhn..
Quantum Quackery
Skeptical overview of QM and consciousness connection.
Philosophical Foundations of Physics by R. Carnap
Positivist view of Physics, which had influenced the Copenhagen Interpretation of the Quantum mechanics (CI).
Quantum Physics Links
Heterogeneous collection of QM links assembled by UK academic service BUBL
Kuhn's Structure of Scientific Revolutions
Crucial chapter from Kuhn's famous book outlining how sciences is forced to go through a paradigm-shift, and see the world in terms of a new theory and new concepts.
Event-Symmetric Space-Time
Book by Philip Gibbs, full text online, regards spacetime as a set of discrete events.
Digital Philosophy -- Discrete Physics
Assuming that all quantities, including space and time, are finite and discrete.
The Mind of God
A review of Paul Davies' exposition of foundational philosophical issues.
Events in History of physics
Time-lines of thermodynamics, emg, symmetry .. With links to other time-lines and resources.
