Conclusion -- $tBibliography 330 $aUnderstanding is an ability manifested by grasping relations of a phenomenon and articulating new explanations. Hence, scientific understanding is inextricably intertwined with and not possible without explanation, and understanding is not a type of propositional knowledge. Anna Elisabeth Höhl provides a novel philosophical account of scientific understanding by developing and defending necessary and sufficient conditions for the understanding that scientists achieve of the phenomena they are researching. This account of scientific understanding is based on and supported by a detailed investigation of an episode from scientific practice in biology. 410 0$aPhilosophie - Aufklärung - Kritik Series 606 $aPHILOSOPHY / Epistemology$2bisacsh 610 $aAbility. 610 $aAnalytical Philosophy. 610 $aEpistemology. 610 $aExplanation. 610 $aPhilosophy of Science. 610 $aPhilosophy. 610 $aScience. 610 $aScientific Practice. 615 7$aPHILOSOPHY / Epistemology. 700 $aHöhl$b Anna Elisabeth, $4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01740695 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910861954703321 996 $aScientific Understanding$94166484 997 $aUNINA
