What is science? Is there a real difference between science and myth? Is science objective? Can science explain everything? This Very Short Introduction provides a concise overview of the main themes of contemporary philosophy of science. Beginning with a short history of science to set the scene, Samir Okasha goes on to investigate the nature of scientific reasoning, scientific explanation, revolutions in science, and theories such as realism and anti-realism. He also looks at philosophical issues in particular sciences, including the problem of classification in biology, and the nature of space and time in physics. The final chapter touches on the conflicts between science and religion, and explores whether science is ultimately a good thing.

评分前段时间的美国大选闹得沸沸扬扬,最后川普当选又是带来了口沫横飞的各种争论。我用脸书用得很少,加的朋友有一大部分是以前同学和现在的同事,可能是太接近学术界的圈子,见到对川普最多的评论是关于他对科学和科技发表的言论。当然他对科学的看法很多从科学的角度来看十分荒...
评分由于使用kindle看的mobi版本,没有页码,所以没办法用笔记。就在此处写写吧。 一、 在解释一章《对称问题》一节里,作者用了旗杆的例子来说明解释的不对称问题: "旗杆投射影子的长度和太阳的仰角,连同光走直线的光学定律和三角运算法则一起,演绎推导出旗杆的高度。" 之后,...
With an enriched overall review of the history of science and philosophy of science, the book written in easily-comprehensible English is recommended to both academic and layman readers, although I find the author's critique of Popper is weak and unconvincing and his putting economy and sociology into the category of science is highly questionable
