Series: Models of Scientific Thought, vol. 3. xxi, 394 pp. Figs., index. Printed boards. Burndy bookplate. Fine. ISBN: 07365268 This book explores the implications of Henri Bergson's philosophy for contemporary science, discussing the misinformed view that Bergsonism stands for a romantic revival of anti-scientific vitalism notwithstanding. Likewise, this study draws value in that Bergson's philosophy appears to offer guidelines as to how to restore paradigmatic cohesiveness between modern physics and the life sciences. The authors argue that Bergson's ideas stand a better chance of being appreciated and their heuristic value harnessed today because the infra-structure alluded to before, is now in place. Andrew C. Papanicolaou is Professor Emeritus of Clinical Neurosciences of the University of Tennessee, College of Medicine, USA, where he served as Chief of the Division of Clinical Neuroscience. Pete A. Y. Gunter is Regents Professor of Philosophy at the University of North Texas.
