Kari Väyrynen 2019/2023. VIISAUDEN HAASTE Metafilosofinen johdatus filosofiaan

This book is written on the holistic display of metaphysics in philosophy opening the challenge of philosophy from the perspectives of layman to research of sciences. It covers vast philosophical areas, but it does not only entail basics of the metaphysics but also metaphilosophical didactics. In addition to this Väyrynen has analysed natural, society, religion and cultural concepts as prerequisites of philosophy.

Ari J. Tervashonka 2023. The third Maxwellian Unification
A systematic analysis of the impact of the Maxwellian ether hypothesis on the development of theoretical physics 1855–1920. Dissertation.

The scientific contributions of James Clerk Maxwell (1831–1879) are vastly documented and researched. His electromagnetic equations and two unifications between electricity and magnetism, and electromagnetism and optics are well known in the history of physics. However, how Maxwell imagined phenomena and formulated mathematical equations to govern physical phenomena was underpinned by natural philosophical thought and effectively the central idea of ether. Ether was believed to be a medium for physical actions covering not only electromagnetism and optics but also thermal phenomena and, in some cases, gravitation. Based on the perspective of history of science, this dissertation suggests a third unification to highlight Maxwellian ether's seminal effect. Despite ether eventually being considered a dead end in physics, it had an overall effect on the history of physics by standardising the ether fundaments.

This theory history dissertation covers Maxwellian ether's theoretical development over 65 years. We start with earlier attempts by Maxwell in 1855 to theorise how Michael Faraday's (1791–1867) findings could be formalised in mathematical physics. After decades of development, the rise of ether scepticism and global recognition of the theory of relativity, we will end the inquiry with the suggestion of Albert Einstein and conceptualize ether as a name carrier for the properties of empty space, thusly covering the development between 1855–1920.

The dissertation was conducted with systematic analysis and hermeneutic theory of systematic analysis. The logic of the historical discovery has been kin to grounded studies to provide a historically sound source for research on the theme in the history of physics, intellectual history, and philosophy of science.
