DESCRIPTION:Renowned theoretical physicist and bestselling author Professo
 r Carlo Rovelli will examine the history of scientific thinking from Arist
 otle in antiquity to the present day and how this has shaped the developme
 nt of modern physics. Professor Rovelli will discuss the commonly misunder
 stood relation between Aristotelian and Newtonian physics. He will also co
 nsider whether the radical revolutions in physics during the early 20th ce
 ntury have led scientists and philosophers to focus on the discontinuities
  and incommensurability between theories and how this might have a damagin
 g effect on scientific practice.\nSpeakers:\nProfessor Carlo Rovelli (Aix-
 Marseille University)
