Reviews
This book delivers twice on its title: it offers a comprehensive discussion of key thinkers in philosophy of science of the past 150 years and the authors are a dozen of their most distinguished and innovative successors at work today. The result shows a vibrant discipline in which each generation reflects on-and moves beyond-the classic debates. An insightful and inspiring survey of philosophy of science, its history, and its progress.

Synopsis
All the great philosophers from Plato and Aristotle to the present day have been philosophers of science. However, this book concentrates on modern philosophy of science, starting in the nineteenth century and offering coverage of all the leading thinkers in the field including Whewell, Mill, Reichenbach, Carnap, Popper, Feyerabend, Putnam, van Fraassen, Bloor, Latour, Hacking, Cartwright and many more. Crucially the book demonstrates how the ideas and arguments of these key thinkers have contributed to our understanding of such central issues as experience and necessity, conventionalism, logical empiricism, induction and falsification, the sociology of science, and realism. Ideal for undergraduate students, the book lays the necessary foundations for a complete and thorough understanding of this fascinating subject., As a discipline, the philosophy of science is as old as philosophy itself. Philosophy of Science: The Key Thinkers offers a comprehensive historical overview of this fascinating field. Twelve specially commissioned essays introduce and explore the contributions of those philosophers who have shaped the subject and the central issues and arguments therein.

    Item came in excellent like-new condition and as described. Packaging with bubble wrap was great to protect items. Shipping speed as expected for USPS Ground Advantage. Communication response time when I had questions about combining shipping was excellent. Seller combined shipping for me for multiple items. Great seller and would buy from again! Great value!

    I am very appreciative. The item is just what I was expecting, as based on the product information and the images provided. The seller went to great efforts to package the item with polystyrene inside, in addition to a sturdy parcel- all appreciated because of the product’s fragile nature. Product arrived well ahead of the predicted schedule by at least two weeks, and in ideal condition, just like new. It now adorns my desk and brings me delight. A great seller. Many thanks!
