All Things Reichenbach

MCMP, LMU Munich

22-24 July, 2019

http://www.lmu.de/reichenbach2019


*********************************************

Hans Reichenbach (1891-1953), one of the founding fathers of Logical
Empiricism, is among the most important philosophers of science of the
Twentieth Century and without doubt one of the most prominent
philosophers of physics of the first half of the past century.  Many of
his ideas still retain their interest in current philosophy of science,
and his work continues to be influential, often in unnoticed but deep
ways.  This conference is dedicated to highlighting the importance of
Reichenbach and his legacy, across all areas of his thought,
specifically focusing on the issues raised within his work, and on the
current debates surrounding them.
