They help, for example, to communicate research results and hypotheses to scientific peers as well as to the lay audience. In genuine research activities they are used as evidence or as surrogates for research objects which are otherwise cognitively inaccessible. Despite their important functional roles in scientific practices, philosophers of science have more or less neglected visual representations in their analyses of epistemic methods and tools of reasoning in science. This book is meant to fill this gap. It presents a detailed investigation into central conceptual issues and into the epistemology of visual representations in science."--$cProvided by publisher. 410 0$aHistory and philosophy of technoscience. 606 $aVisual communication in science 606 $aCommunication in science 606 $aScientific illustration 606 $aScience$xMethodology 615 0$aVisual communication in science. 615 0$aCommunication in science. 615 0$aScientific illustration. 615 0$aScience$xMethodology. 676 $a502.2 700 $aMo?ßner$b Nicola$01156135 801 0$bFlBoTFG 801 1$bFlBoTFG 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910765779603321 996 $aVisual representations in science$93651068 997 $aUNINA
