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.

讀後感
序言 李醒民 从1978年读研究生算起，我接触、关注、研究科学哲学（philosophy of science）已有三十个年头了。文章和著作没有少撰写，译文和译著没有少迻译，阅读的科学哲学书籍当然不会太少。但是，像手头这本通俗易懂、言简意赅、语句流畅的《科学哲学》一书，我着实是第一...
評分前两天帝都小憩，返程路上偶遇一位佛系的出租车司机。一路放着梵语的音乐，聊嗨了饶有兴致的和我聊起他的佛缘以及佛文化使他的顿悟：世界观的打开以及认知的颠覆。坦白说，我是无宗教信仰者，但对于信仰的人绝对的尊重，甚至我以为通常，有信仰的人情有所依，往往幸福感更高。...
評分 評分书是好书，交叉学科的一点意思，不过看得出来两门学科都涉及的很浅，毕竟是作为一本通俗读物的定位。因为哲学和科学在部分人（比如我）其实是绝大部分人的视野里总有矛盾点。通过一些例子作者讲出了我的困惑，有一些问题提的也很有意思很有代表性，为什么xxx会是这个样子，譬如...
評分应当是每个人大学前必读的书，论述了各门科学所采用的研究方法，反过来，也可用这种方法去检验一个观点的科学性。掌握了书里所谈的推理，科学检验，解释的一些原则和假设后，学习起新知识来才能更鞭辟入里，因为你能找到一个观点的推理起源，从而从本质上思考它依赖的假设与证...

评分concise and covers interesting and inspiring topics.
评分通勤讀得通體舒暢
评分學校推薦給像我這樣layman的休閑入門讀物，期待作者講Philosophy of Biology
评分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
