Mathematics, Physics,Physical Sciences
What the role of mathematics in physical sciences is, is a relevant
philosophical and historical question whose answer is necessary to fully
understand the real status of physics, in particular of contemporary physics.
Exactly the wish to have good and plausible answers has spurred
physicists, mathematicians, historians of science, and philosophers of science
from many countries to join together and friendly but rigorously discuss.
From that meeting, which was held in the wonderful Isle of Losinj (Croatia)
in 2003, this book had its origin.
Actually, it does not simply contain the text of the lectures given. It is
something different and something more. Some chapters are new and
improved versions of what was presented. Some others have been added to
enrich the variety of possible suggestions.
This book has been published in occasion of the 40th anniversary
celebrations of the Consorzio per la Fisica of Trieste.
