I strongly believe that the fundamental laws of nature are not emergent phenomena.
Children need to be exploring their physical world. They need to be learning the fundamental laws of physics by manipulating objects.
It makes no difference whether a work is naturalistic or abstract; every visual expression follows the same fundamental laws.
In violation of the Habeas Corpus Act and the fundamental laws of our constitution these men have never been brought to trail or even allowed to see a lawyer.
The essential point is that, although coordinates are a powerful, and sometimes essential, tool in many calculations, the fundamental laws of physics can be expressed without the aid of coordinates; and, indeed, their coordinate-free expressions are generally elegant and exceedingly powerful.
The fundamental laws of physics do not describe true facts about reality. Rendered as descriptions of facts, they are false; amended to be true, they lose their explanatory force.
We seek to protect and preserve life for life's own sake in everything from our most fundamental laws of homicide to our road traffic regulations to our largest governmental programs for health and social security.
The ability to reduce everything to simple fundamental laws does not imply the ability to start from those laws and reconstruct the universe.
It always seems odd to me that the fundamental laws of physics, when discovered, can appear in so many different forms that are not apparently identical at first, but, with a little mathematical fiddling, you can show the relationship.
