Space-time relationism in Newtonian and relativistic physics
International Studies in the Philosophy of Science 15 (1):5 – 17 (2001)
| Abstract | I argue that there is natural relationist interpretation of Newtonian and relativistic non-quantum physics. Although relationist, this interpretation does not fall prey to the traditional objections based on the existence of inertial effects. | |||||||||
