Grodzicki M: Physical Reality –
Construction or Discovery?

Physical Reality – Construction or Discovery?

An Introduction to the Methodology and Aims of Physics

In two often neglected passages of the Critique of Pure Reason, Kant submits that the Critique is a 'treatise' or a 'doctrine of method'. Gabriele Gava argues that these passages point out that the Critique is the doctrine of method of metaphysics, with the task of showing that metaphysics can become a science.

Kant's Critique of Pure Reason and the Method of Metaphysics

In this exceptionally clear and engaging introduction to the philosophy of science, James Ladyman explores the philosophical questions that arise when we reflect on the nature of the scientific method and the knowledge it produces. He discusses whether fundamental philosophical questions about knowledge and reality might be answered by science, and considers in detail the debate between realists and antirealists about the extent of scientific knowledge. The style remains unassuming, bringing to life the essential questions in the philosophy of science. Ideal for any student of philosophy or science, the book requires no previous knowledge of either discipline. It contains suggestions for further reading and cross-references with an extensive bibliography, making this the ideal textbook for students coming to the subject for the first time. The second edition includes the following key features: new chapter 'Confirmation and Evidence' which will include Nicod's criterion and Hempel's symmetry thesis and Bayesianism new content added to the 'Revolutions and Rationality' chapter, including Post-Kuhnian views of the scientific method more content on social factors in science and recent views of science.

Understanding Philosophy of Science

Routledge Handbooks in Philosophy

The Routledge Handbook of Mindshaping comprises 37 chapters by an international team of leading scholars. An outstanding survey of a vibrant and emerging field, it will be of great interest to those studying and researching philosophy of psychology, philosophy of cognitive science, philosophy of mind and applied epistemology.

Philosophy Of Science

This book re-examines the place of Carnap and Quine in the history of analytic philosophy by presenting them as sharing philosophical motivations despite their notable differences. It will be accessible to professional philosophers, graduate students, and advanced undergraduates.

The Philosophical Project of Carnap and Quine

Published in 1710, Giambattista Vico's groundbreaking On the Most Ancient Wisdom of the Italians argued, against Descartes, that knowledge is more about making and producing than speculating and theorising. Historicised activities precede any kind of ethereal abstraction. Maurizio Esposito situates Vico's epistemology of praxis within the longstanding tradition of the maker's knowledge perspective and shows how Vico transformed the ancient idea that knowledge is a form of making into a humanist and existential principle. Humans do not merely fabricate tools and transform nature; they also create symbolic spaces in which different forms of thinking and understanding evolve. Esposito explores the possibility that Vico envisioned a non-Cartesian version of modernity, where praxis, rather than reason, drives human history. This alternative modernity has directly or indirectly influenced some of the most significant philosophical traditions of the past two centuries and is more relevant today than ever.

Elements in the Philosophy of Science

This Element examines how climate scientists have arrived at answers to three key questions about climate change: How much is earth's climate warming? What is causing this warming? What will climate be like in the future? Resources from philosophy of science are employed to analyse the methods that climate scientists use to address these questions and the inferences that they make from the evidence collected. Along the way, the analysis contributes to broader philosophical discussions of data modelling and measurement, robustness analysis, explanation, and model evaluation.

This Element explores climate scientists' methods and inferences on global warming, utilizing the philosophy of science resources. It contributes to philosophical discussions on data modelling, measurement, robustness analysis, explanation, and model evaluation.

Mirror symmetry is one of the most exciting ideas in mathematics to emerge in the last two decades. It was introduced in physics as a duality between superconformal field theories. This book discusses this rapidly developing aspect of string theory.

Reclaiming the Self in Psychiatry: Centering Personal Narratives for Humanist Science diagnoses the fundamental problem in contemporary scientific psychiatry to be a lack of a sophisticated and nuanced engagement with the self and proposes a solution - the Multitudinous Self Model (MuSe).

Elements in Decision Theory and Philosophy

"We often care not only about what happens to us, but when it happens to us. We prefer that good experiences happen sooner, rather than later, and that our suffering lies in our past, rather than our future. Common sense suggests that some ways of caring about time are rational, and others are not, but it is surprisingly challenging to provide justifying explanations for these tendencies. This Element is an opinionated, nontechnical-guided tour through the main philosophical issues about the relevance of the temporal location of our experiences to our desires and our choices, and the major arguments for and against different kinds of so-called time bias"--
