Sinopsis

Most scientists and laypersons believe science and progress go hand in hand, yet philosophers and historians of science have long questioned this link. In this study, 20 essays explore and debate the limits of scientific inquiry and their presumed consequences for science in the 21st century.

Cr�ticas

"The exemplars from 18th-century chemistry, 19th-century electromagnetic theory, and contemporary particle physics, biology, and quantum theory well illustrate the classical struggles of realism, induction, explanation, and prediction that occupy current considerations of modern scientific change. . . . This volume well represents a fertile spectrum of issues of urgency to both introductory and veteran participants. Highly recommended." --Choice
