This book presents, compares, and contrasts these different notions. It focuses primarily on Ian Hacking?s idea of 'style of reasoning' in order to assess and develop it into a more systematic theory of scientific thought, arguing that Hacking?s theory implies epistemic relativism. Luca Sciortino also discusses the implications of Hacking?s ideas for the study of the problem of contingency and inevitability in the development of scientific knowledge. 606 $aIntellectual life$xHistory 606 $aScience$xHistory 606 $aKnowledge, Theory of 606 $aScience$xPhilosophy 606 $aHistory of Ideas 606 $aIntellectual History 606 $aHistory of Science 606 $aEpistemology 606 $aPhilosophy of Science 615 0$aIntellectual life$xHistory. 615 0$aScience$xHistory. 615 0$aKnowledge, Theory of. 615 0$aScience$xPhilosophy. 615 14$aHistory of Ideas. 615 24$aIntellectual History. 615 24$aHistory of Science. 615 24$aEpistemology. 615 24$aPhilosophy of Science. 676 $a016.34951249 676 $a121 700 $aSciortino$b Luca$01315620 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 912 $a9910659481203321 996 $aHistory of Rationalities$93032419 997 $aUNINA
