(Set) Examining the Big Questions of Time & The Great Questions of Philosophy and Physics
We all have big questions about big topics: time, philosophy, physics. This two-course set is your chance to get possible answers to all of them. Start with Examining the Big Questions of Time, where you’ll consider how philosophers, physicists, cosmologists, and neuroscientists have wrestled with the deeper meanings of time and what their research has contributed to our collective understanding of it. Then, continue with The Great Questions of Philosophy and Physics, in which you’ll explore many of the fundamental ideas of modern physics, including the role of philosophy in setting ground rules, interpreting results, and posing new questions.
