Studies in Inductive Probability and Rational Expectation
ISBN: 9789400998322 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 154 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. 3 in philosophy, and therefore in metaphilosophy, cannot be based on rules that avoid spending time on pseudo-problems. Of course, this implies that, if one succeeds in demonstrating convincingly the pseudo-character of a problem by giving its 'solution', the time spent on it need not be seen as wasted. We conclude this section with a brief statement of the criteria for concept explication as they have been formulated in several places by Carnap, Hempel and Stegmiiller. Hempel's account ([13J, Chapter 1) is still very adequate for a detailed introduction. The process of explication starts...

Structures in Science: Heuristic Patterns Based on Cognitive Structures an Advanced Textbook in Neo-Classical Philosophy of Science
ISBN: 9780792371175 / Angielski / Twarda / 2001 / 414 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. Although there is an abundance of highly specialized monographs, learned collections and general introductions to the philosophy of science, only a few 25 years. synthetic monographs and advanced textbooks have appeared in the last The philosophy of science seems to have lost its self-confidence. The main reason for such a loss is that the traditional analytical, logical-empiricist approaches to the philosophy of science had to make a number of concessions, especially in response to the work of Popper, Kuhn and Lakatos. With Structures in Science I intend to present both a synthetic mono...

General Philosophy of Science: Focal Issues
ISBN: 9780444515483 / Angielski / Twarda / 2007 / 683 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Scientists use concepts and principles that are partly specific for their subject matter, but they also share part of them with colleagues working in different fields. Compare the biological notion of a 'natural kind' with the general notion of 'confirmation' of a hypothesis by certain evidence. Or compare the physical principle of the 'conservation of energy' and the general principle of 'the unity of science'. Scientists agree that all such notions and principles aren't as crystal clear as one might wish. An important task of the philosophy of the special sciences, such as...

From Instrumentalism to Constructive Realism: On Some Relations Between Confirmation, Empirical Progress, and Truth Approximation
ISBN: 9789048153695 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 372 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. Surprisingly, modified versions of the confirmation theory (Carnap and Hempel) and truth approximation theory (Popper) turn out to be smoothly sythesizable. The glue between the two appears to be the instrumentalist methodology, rather than that of the falsificationalist.
The instrumentalist methodology, used in the separate, comparative evaluation of theories in terms of their successes and problems (hence, even if already falsified), provides in theory and practice the straight road to short-term empirical progress in science ( a la Laudan). It is also argued that... Surprisingly, modified versions of the confirmation theory (Carnap and Hempel) and truth approximation theory (Popper) turn out to be smoothly sythesi...

The Courage of Doing Philosophy : Essays Presented to Leszek Nowak
ISBN: 9789042023369 / Angielski / Twarda / 2007 / 471 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In recent years, the problem of idealization has been one of the central issues discussed in philosophy of science. This volume gathers original essays written by well-known philosophers. The papers address the method of idealization and its applications in science as well as ontological and epistemological problems that have arisen. Among the questions addressed are: What is the logcal form of idealizational statements and how should they be interpreted? Is the possible worlds semantics useful in understanding idealization? What is the relation between idealization and truth? The volume is a...
