What Physics Deals With
Mechanics had unfolded being-outside-one-another in its abstractness. Now the question is what being-outside-one-another means for that which is outside itself. Neuser summarizes the answer: what is at stake is individuality — the coexistence, side by side, of the mutually external terms reflected into themselves.[1]
The series is the same as in mechanics, on a different level: universal, particular, total individuality. What increases is once again relatedness — now between qualitatively determined bodies.
