A reappraisal -- Are Heuristics Knowledge-Enhancing?Abduction, Models, and Fictions in Science -- Heuristic Appraisal at the Frontier of Research -- Why do Scientific Revolutions begin? -- Withstanding Tensions: Scientific Disagreement and Epistemic Tolerance -- Heuristics as Methods:  Validity, Reliability and Velocity -- Dynamic generation of hypotheses: Mandelbrot, Soros and Far-From-Equilibrium.How can we advance knowledge? Which methods do we need in order to make new discoveries? How can we rationally evaluate, reconstruct and offer discoveries as a means of improving the ‘method’ of discovery itself? And how can we use findings about scientific discovery to boost funding policies, thus fostering a deeper impact of scientific discovery itself? The respective chapters in this book provide readers with answers to these questions. They focus on a set of issues that are essential to the development of types of reasoning for advancing knowledge, such as models for both revolutionary findings and paradigm shifts; ways of rationally addressing scientific disagreement, e.g. when a revolutionary discovery sparks considerable disagreement inside the scientific community; frameworks for both discovery and inference methods; and heuristics for economics and the social sciences.Studies in Applied Philosophy, Epistemology and Rational Ethics,2192-6255 ;16Computational intelligencePhilosophy and scienceOperations researchDecision makingLogicKnowledge, Theory ofComputational Intelligencehttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T11014Philosophy of Sciencehttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/E34000Operations Research/Decision Theoryhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/521000Logichttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/E16000Epistemologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/E13000Computational intelligence.Philosophy and science.Operations research.Decision making.Logic.Knowledge, Theory of.Computational Intelligence.Philosophy of Science.Operations Research/Decision Theory.Logic.Epistemology.006.3120160501Ippoliti Emilianoedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtBOOK9910299661503321Heuristic Reasoning1465980UNINA
