In Plato's time, the study
October 20, 2001
In Plato's time, the study of the workings of nature was considered inseparable from the study of philosophy. The field was called Natural Philosophy and it differed most from modern science in that it held personal experience as well as mathematical interpretation to be equally important. It is this spirit that we want to preserve throughout the issues of JNP. To achieve this, we publish writing that attempts to reconcile human experience with the physical phenomena we study. In addition, we are committed to education of the public. To this end, we look for writing that effectively conveys a physical intuition of these phenomena to the non-scientist.
