What Does 'It All' Mean?: some questions about the physics of totality
ABSTRACT: Questions about whether there is such a thing as totality, and how it relates to the local matters of particular fact that make up the physical universe are right at the heart of issues about the interpretation of determinism, because determinism holds only at the level of totality. They are connected to questions about the nature of time, because the presumption among those that defend a Block Universe conception of time is that there is such a thing as the totality of physical events. They also open up a cluster of questions that range across logic, metaphysics, and modern cosmology. I will examine these questions and the relationships between them, and (perhaps) unsettle ways of thinking that have become customary in philosophy of physics.
