Description

Explore the philosophical depth of Michael Polanyi in this work from Palgrave Macmillan. This book examines how the Hungarian-British chemist and philosopher uses a Platonic vision to bridge the gap between scientific practice and speculative metaphysics. By providing a phenomenologically satisfying way to understand human experience, the text offers a unique look at Polanyi's thought. The central argument identifies Polanyi as a Platonist through his affirmation of the ontological status of abstract objects. Readers will find detailed analysis regarding the question of uninstantiated universals. This study connects Polanyi's ideas with contemporary speculative realists from both analytic and continental traditions, making it a significant resource for those studying the philosophy of science.
