Sci-Phi
|
|
Welcome to the Sci-Phi project!
Sci-Phi is an informal program spearheaded by Massimo Pigliucci at the
City University of New York-Lehman College.
The idea is to see what happens when one brings together scientists and
philosophers in the same room, to tell each other why they should pay
attention to each other's discipline.
An informal sci-phi symposium was held at Stony Brook
University-Manhattan on March 10, 2007.
A selected number of papers from the symposium have been published in
the March 2008 special issue
of the Quarterly Review of Biology:
- Introduction, by Massimo Pigliucci
- The borderlands between science and philosophy, by
Massimo Pigliucci
- Checks and balances: the welcome tension between
philosophy and science, by Jamie Carlin Watson and Robert Arp
- Philosophy and the front line of science, by Tuomas
Pernu
- Biohumanities: rethinking the relationship between
biosciences, philosophy and history of science, and society, by Karola
Stotz and Paul Griffiths

Will there be additional sci-phi events? Join the New York City Philosophers
