具体描述
This new edition of Chalmers's highly regarded and widely read work-translated into fifteen languages-is extensively rewritten and reorganized, reflecting the experience of the author, his colleagues, and correspondents in twenty years of teaching from the previous edition. Significant additions are new chapters on the Bayesian approach to science, the new experimentalism, the nature of scientific laws, and the realism/anti-realism debate. An ideal introduction to scientific method, Chalmers's work is both accessible to beginners and a valuable resource for advanced students and scholars.

读后感
理论概论写得好其实很难，需要作者对学科内有史以来各类观点的深入了解和客观评估，加上作者自身的理论体系，为此教材类书的独创性增色不少，避免了泛泛之谈。Chalmers从1976年编写第一版科学哲学教材开始，至1998已更新到第三版。在科学学科内部日益走向专家化细分化的大环境...
评分第一眼看到这本书，就想翻一翻。翻开来看了下目录，又看了几页，就被内容迷住了。对科学的本质做了详细的论述，对于在学术道路上遇到深层次的哲学问题的学生有很好的帮助，是一本不错的科学哲学书籍，可以反复读出不同的味道，并找到自己的支持与反对。
评分 评分怎么说呢，内容当然是不错啦。只是因为是考研制定的书，所以没有选择商务版的，从卓越上买会后，发现书真的很厚，不过字体真的比较大，这么多年没有看到过这么大的字体啦，字体间距也比较宽，好像是上小学时的语文书哈哈
评分这是我研究生期间导师开的书单的第一本，也是我读的第一本比较专业的书。但它很是好读，特别是前面部分，很是形象。想我以前是理科生，读这样书也不觉得晦涩，更能引领读者慢慢进行思考，可以说是一本值得推荐的科学哲学的入门读物。
