What is science? Is there a real difference between science and myth? Is science objective? Can science explain everything? This Very Short Introduction provides a concise overview of the main themes of contemporary philosophy of science. Beginning with a short history of science to set the scene, Samir Okasha goes on to investigate the nature of scientific reasoning, scientific explanation, revolutions in science, and theories such as realism and anti-realism. He also looks at philosophical issues in particular sciences, including the problem of classification in biology, and the nature of space and time in physics. The final chapter touches on the conflicts between science and religion, and explores whether science is ultimately a good thing.

评分对科学最重要的两个字,不是相信科学,而是质疑科学。 我们对科学的理解,其实不太科学。科学不是理性的代名词,不是万无一失,科学不是…简单点说,科学有局限。科学,算是唯心主义的。 1.不是讲科学地认识世界吗,但事实是,认识世界是建立在“人类”的感官之上的,建立在人...
