La mente del universo y la causalidad
Journal Title: Scientia et Fides - Year 2016, Vol 4, Issue 2
Abstract
The Mind of the Universe and Causality In The Mind of the Universe Mariano Artigas builds a bridge connecting science and theology. One of the connections he establishes between the two areas of knowledge goes through the philosophy of nature, specifically through the study of causality; in fact, in The Mind of the Universe can be found ways to understand and to expose the Aristotelian-Thomistic doctrine of causality that allow, on the one hand, the connection between science and theology and, on the other hand, going deeper into the philosophical understanding of the natural world.
