Boston Studies in the Philosophy and History of Science, 1996
We are living in the golden age of astronomy, when all the windows of the electromagnetic spectrum are being thrown wide open. Can we make sense of the incoming flood of disparate data and enigmatic clues? Will we be able to incorporate all of them into a coherent picture of the observable universe as an unitary physical system?

Cosmology and Biology in Ancient Philosophy
2021In antiquity living beings are inextricably linked to the cosmos as a whole. Ancient biology and cosmology depend upon one another and therefore a complete understanding of one requires a full account of the other. This volume addresses many philosophical issues that arise from this double relation. Does the cosmos have a soul of its own? Why?

Philosophy before philosophy. The Dogon cosmology reconsidered
International Journal of Anthropology, 2021Historians of science have applied Piagetian stage theory to the history of sciences and philosophy. It was found that central parts of ancient metaphysics such as animism and magic have to be accounted to certain stages well-known in developmental psychology.

A Philosophy for Big-Bang Cosmology
Nature, 1970According to recent developments in cosmology we seem bound to find a model universe like the observed universe, almost independently of how we suppose it started. Such ideas, if valid, provide fresh justification for the procedures of current cosmological theory.

Cosmological questions (e.g., how far the world extends and how it all began) have occupied humans for ages and given rise to numerous conjectures, both within and outside philosophy. To put to rest fruitless speculation, Kant argued that these questions move beyond the limits of human knowledge.

Cosmology between Physics and Philosophy
Voprosy Filosofii, 2023It is shown that the canonical cosmological model of the Universe – Big Bang Theory (BBT) contains unacceptably many unsolvable contradictions either to facts, or logic, or, finally, to physics. They can be categorized into several groups: 1) unacceptable, 2) unsubstantiated, and 3) multivalued.

Philosophy as Comparative Cosmology
Tulane Studies in Philosophy, 1958Three decades have elapsed since Whitehead’s attempt to set philosophy to this “sustained effort”, and the philosophic scene is more crowded than ever with empiricist, existentialist, and positivist partisans of the “detached question”. Where philosophy has not become anti-philosophical it has become ancillary to science.
