| Description: |
"For years I've fielded queries from colleagues around the world seeking an anthology through which to teach introductory history and philosophy of science courses by means of primary sources from the Greeks to the twentieth century. My answer has always been discouraging: No one book fills that need. But not anymore. |
| Synopsis: |
By combining excerpts from key historical writings with commentary by experts, Philosophy of Science: An Historical Anthology provides a comprehensive history of the philosophy of science from ancient to modern times. * Provides a comprehensive history of the philosophy of science, from antiquity up to the 20th century * Includes extensive commentary by scholars putting the selected writings in historical context and pointing out their interconnections * Covers areas rarely seen in philosophy of science texts, including the philosophical dimensions of biology, chemistry, and geology * Designed to be accessible to both undergraduates and graduate students |
