Download The Philosophy of Science: A Very Short Introduction AudioBook Free
What is knowledge? Is there a real difference between knowledge and misconception? Is science objective? Can science make clear everything? This Very Short Introduction offers a concise summary of the main designs of contemporary philosophy of science. Beginning with a short history of science to set the picture, Samir Okasha continues on to investigate the nature of clinical reasoning, scientific justification, revolutions in knowledge, and ideas such as realism and anti-realism. He also talks about philosophical issues specifically sciences, including the situation of classification in biology, and the nature of space and time in physics. The ultimate chapter details on the conflicts between knowledge and religious beliefs, and explores whether knowledge is ultimately a good thing.
