(P/B) SCIENTIFIC REALISM: HOW SCIENCE TRACKS TRUTH

Παρουσίαση

Scientific realism is the optimistic view that modem science is on the right track; that the world really is the way our best scientific theories describe it. In his book, Stathis Psillos gives us a detailed and comprehensive study which restores the intuitive plausibility of scientific realism. We see that throughout the twentieth century, scientific realism has been challenged by philosophical positions from all angles: from reductive empiricism, through instrumentalism to modern sceptical empiricism.
