ISBN: 9789027706294 / Angielski / Twarda / 1975 / 323 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. According to a view assumed by many scientists and philosophers of science and standardly found in science textbooks, it is controlled ex perience which provides the basis for distinguishing between acceptable and unacceptable theories in science: acceptable theories are those which can pass empirical tests.

However, in 1906 Pierre Duhem argued that the falsification of a theory is...

ISBN: 9780226241364 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Worries about scientific objectivity seem never-ending. Social critics and philosophers of science have argued that invocations of objectivity are often little more than attempts to boost the status of a claim, while calls for value neutrality may be used to suppress otherwise valid dissenting positions. Objectivity is used sometimes to advance democratic agendas, at other times to block them; sometimes for increasing the growth of knowledge, at others to resist it.
Sandra Harding is not ready to throw out objectivity quite yet. For all of its problems, she contends that objectivity is... Worries about scientific objectivity seem never-ending. Social critics and philosophers of science have argued that invocations of objectivity are oft...

In different ways, the papers in this collection explore the evidence for these increasingly reasonable and intriguing questions. They identify how it is distinctively masculine perspectives on masculine experience which have shaped the most fundamental and formal aspects of systematic thought in philosophy and the...
