Reading the Book of Nature: An Introduction to the Philosophy of Science
ISBN: 9780521426824 / Angielski / Miękka / 1992 / 212 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This is an introductory survey to the philosophy of science suitable for beginners and nonspecialists. Its point of departure is the question: why should we believe what science tells us about the world? In this attempt to justify the claims of science the book treats such topics as observation data, confirmation of theories, and the explanation of phenomena. The writing is clear and concrete with detailed examples drawn from contemporary science: solar neutrinos, the gravitational bending of light, and the creation/evolution debate, for example. What emerges is a view of science in which...

Observability and Observation in Physical Science
ISBN: 9789401075985 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 166 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. The concept of observability of entities in physical science is typically analyzed in terms of the nature and significance of a dichotomy between observables and unobservables. In this book, however, this categorization is resisted and observability is analyzed in a descriptive way in terms of the information which one can receive through interaction with objects in the world. The account of interaction and the transfer of information is done using applicable scientific theories. In this way the question of observability of scientific entities is put to science itself. Several examples are...

Appearance and Reality: An Introduction to the Philosophy of Physics
ISBN: 9780195115154 / Angielski / Miękka / 1997 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) Appearance and Reality: An Introduction to the Philosophy of Physics addresses quantum mechanics and relativity and their philosophical implications, focusing on whether these theories of modern physics can help us know nature as it really is, or only as it appears to us. The author clearly explains the foundational concepts and principles of both quantum mechanics and relativity and then uses them to argue that we can know more than mere appearances, and that we can know to some extent the way things really are. He argues that modern physics gives us...

What Goes Up... Gravity and Scientific Method
ISBN: 9781107129856 / Angielski / Twarda / 2017 / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The concept of gravity provides a natural phenomenon that is simultaneously obvious and obscure; we all know what it is, but rarely question why it is. The simple observation that 'what goes up must come down' contrasts starkly with our current scientific explanation of gravity, which involves challenging and sometimes counterintuitive concepts. With such extremes between the plain and the perplexing, gravity forces a sharp focus on scientific method. Following the history of gravity from Aristotle to Einstein, this clear account highlights the logic of scientific method for non-specialists....
