Beschreibung
A radical history of indeterminate materialism from prehistory to the present The crystallisation of a decade of research, Matter and Motion traces a line of ancient and modern thinkers who shared a radically different understanding of matter and motion inside and against the Euro-Western tradition. Many have understood matter and motion as relative and as reducible to form and stasis. But, here for the first time, Thomas Nail traces the history of an alternative orientation in which matter and motion are understood as indeterminate relational processes - what he calls kinetic materialism. Thomas Nail is Distinguished Scholar and Professor of Philosophy at the University of Denver and author of numerous books, including Theory of the Object, Lucretius I, II, III, Returning to Revolution and Being and Motion. His research focuses on the philosophy of movement.
