Archimedes Science and Mathematics

Natural science, such as physics, chemistry, and biology, was originally conceived as a philosophical endeavor, but from the time of Galileo it has increasingly focused on quantitative analysis to the neglect of other aspects of being. Despite this narrower scope, modern scientific inquiry often engages profound philosophical and social questions that defy quantification. In the essays below, we subject some of these issues to philosophical scrutiny, and also address some purely quantitative problems.
