Considers the relevance of modern theoretical physics to metaphysical questions about the nature of reality.
"synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
The Book is drawn from the Tarner Lectures delivered in Cambridge in 1993. It is concerned with the ultimate nature of reality, and how this is revealed by modern physical theories such as relativity and quantum theory. The objectivity and rationality of science are defended against the views of relativists and social constructivists.
