Focusing on experiential justification, this work explores how certain experiences provide immediate justification and contribute to scientific knowledge. The author presents a phenomenological experience-first epistemology, demonstrating its role in grounding individual sciences. By connecting epistemology to the foundations of mathematics and physics, the book offers a comprehensive understanding of the relationship between experience and knowledge acquisition in these fields.

This Element focuses on the circumstances in which the restriction of gauge theories to gauge invariant information on an observable level is warranted, using the Brout-Englert-Higgs theory as an example of particular current importance.
