DESCRIPTION:In the progression of physics\, most facts and laws have been 
 established only after decades\, often centuries\, of discussion and dispu
 te. This conference will review some of the great disputes stretching from
  antiquity to the modern day. From the classical Greek discussions on the 
 nature of space and matter\, through the founding disputes of modern scien
 ce and its mathematics (led by Newton's disputes with contemporaries) up t
 o the recent controversies in quantum mechanics and cosmology\, the feuds 
 between leading thinkers and their vital role in establishing successive v
 iews of our physical world will be examined.\n\n*Registration to attend th
 is conference is free but booking is required*.  \nPlease visit the websit
