Weaving lucid explanations with clear analyses, the volume is as a much-used, thematically oriented introduction to the field. New features of the Third Edition include more coverage of the history of the philosophy of science, more fully developed material on the metaphysics of causal and physical necessity, more background on the contrast between empiricism and rationalism in science, and new material on the structure of theoretical science (with expanded coverage of Newtonian and Darwinian theories and models) and the realism/antirealism controversy. Rosenberg also divides the Third Edition into fourteen chapters, aligning each chapter with a week in a standard semester-long course. Updated Discussion Questions, Glossary, Bibliography and Suggested Readings lists at the end of each chapter will make the Third Edition indispensable, either as a comprehensive stand-alone text or alongside the many wide ranging collections of articles and book excerpts currently available"--$cProvided by publisher. 410 0$aRoutledge contemporary introductions to philosophy. 606 $aScience$xPhilosophy 606 $aScience$xMethodology 615 0$aScience$xPhilosophy. 615 0$aScience$xMethodology. 676 $a501 686 $aPHI000000$aSCI075000$2bisacsh 700 $aRosenberg$b Alexander$f1946-$045160 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910962184003321 996 $aPhilosophy of science$9980459 997 $aUNINA
