Case studies have played a prominent role in recent history and philosophy of science. They have been used to illustrate, question, explore, or explicate philosophical points of view. Even if not explicitly so, historical narratives are always guided by philosophical background assumptions. But what happens if different philosophies lead to different narratives of the same historical episodes? Can historical case studies decide between competing philosophical viewpoints? What are the criteria that a case study has to fulfill in order to be philosophically relevant? Bringing together leading practitioners in the fields of history and philosophy of the physical and the life sciences, this volume addresses this methodological problem and proposes ways of rendering explicit philosophical assumptions of historical work. 410 0$aBoston Studies in the Philosophy and History of Science,$x0068-0346 ;$v319 606 $aHistory 606 $aPhilosophy and science 606 $aHistory of Science$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/731000 606 $aPhilosophy of Science$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/E34000 615 0$aHistory. 615 0$aPhilosophy and science. 615 14$aHistory of Science. 615 24$aPhilosophy of Science. 676 $a100 702 $aSauer$b Tilman$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aScholl$b Raphael$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910254782103321 996 $aThe Philosophy of Historical Case Studies$92137993 997 $aUNINA
