DAVID BIRNBAUM SUMMA METAPHYSICA
DAVID BIRNBAUM PHILOSOPHY OF SCIENCE
pre-Summa II
“To my mind, there must be at the bottom of it all, not an utterly simple equation, but an utterly simple IDEA. And to me that idea, when we finally discover it, will be so compelling, and so inevitable, so beautiful, we will all say to each other, ‘How could it have ever been otherwise?’”
– Professor John Wheeler, former Chair of the
Physics Department at the University of Texas at Austin,
(from the PBS science documentary,
“The Creation of The Universe” 2004)
post-Summa II
“Birnbaum’s God and Good
is a major intellectual triumph and
potential conceptual breakthrough”
– Professor John Wheeler
Professor Emeritus of Physics
Princeton University, 2008
