SolutionsThe Problems section of our website takes you to many of the "Great Problems in Philosophy and Physics" we have researched over the past sixty years. In this new Solutions section, launched in Spring 2020, we summarize the most plausible information-based solutions to several great problems in philosophy and the sciences.
Problems in CosmologyThe Cosmic Creation Process Thermodynamics
Problems in Quantum MechanicsThe Two-Slit Experiment Entanglement
Problems in PhilosophyThe Problem of Free Will The Mind-Body Problem
Problems in Metaphysics
Dis-Solving Some "Pseudo-Problems"Time Asymmetry
Old Solutions Sections
In earlier versions of the I-Phi website, there were separate drop-down menus for the sections on Problems and Solutions. The Problems menu has been restored and updated. Both sections are now links in the Introduction drop-down menu. The original Solutions section was a motley collection of philosophical ideas we hoped to work on, nothing like our proposed information-based solutions to the great problems of philosophy and the sciences, which we are now developing. Here are links to the old sub-sections of Solutions: Demons Determinisms Dogmas Dualisms Experiments Language Progress Reason Theories Triads Truth
The original Solutions section had separate entries for the major philosophers and scientists who have contributed to the three classic philosophical problems, knowledge, value, and freedom of the will, for which we hope to reconcile science and philosophy. Philosophers and Scientists are now entries in the Introduction drop-down menu, as well as having individual links for each thinker in the left navigation on every I-Phi page. Experiments is now also located in the Introduction menu.
