The book deals with 'mind' and its relationship to 'reality'; the material aspect of the world is treated realistically in this monograph. When we look out of a window we see the world outside. Space and time can be considered as a 'window' because they reflect certain peculiarities of the world outside. The effect of biological evolution on the theoretical description of physical phenomena will be pointed out in detail. Furthermore, the nature of space and time will be analyzed with respect to what we actually observe. In this monograph we will distinguish between the 'container principle' (here the world is embedded in space and time) and the 'projection principle' whereupon the world is projected onto space and time.
