This book discusses the main issues in Popper's theory of science and, after giving a careful characterization of each issue, examines the main objections that have been raised against them and offers ways of circumventing them. It demonstrates that Popper's theory can guide us again to a better understanding of the aim and the structure of science. 410 0$aContinuum studies in philosophy. 606 $aScience$xMethodology 606 $aProbabilities 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aScience$xMethodology. 615 0$aProbabilities. 676 $a501 686 $a08.35$2bcl 700 $aGarci?a$b Carlos E$0902623 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910458141003321 996 $aPopper's theory of science$92017792 997 $aUNINA
