Abstract

This and the following two chapters track the interaction of our immediate interest--the realization of our experience of causal and spatio-temporal structure and the plausibility of various features of basic contents-with three stages in the development of post--galilence. Traditional galilean orthodoxy, which dominated physics until the beginning of this century and still permeates much contemporary physicalist writing, is the focus of this chapter.
