Constructive empiricism: epistemology and the philosophy of science
New York: Palgrave-Macmillan (2010)
Abstract
Constructive empiricism is not just a view regarding the aim of science; it is also a view regarding the epistemological framework in which one should debate the aim of science. This is the focus of this book -- not with scientific truth, but with how one should argue about scientific truth.Author's Profile
