http://schema.org/description

  • "This collection surveys two aspects of contemporary philosophy of science: the methods of physical science and crucial aspects of foundational theories of physics. Part 1 explores the methodological topics, scientific explanation, probabilistic explanation, laws of nature, interpretation of theories, the structure of physical theories, and evolution and revolution in scientific change. In part 2 the studies of foundational physics explore contemporary theories of space and time, quantum theories of fields, and statistical mechanics."
  • "The contributions by distinguished philosophers of science in this collection provide a survey of two aspects of contemporary philosophy of science, the methods of physical science and crucial aspects of foundational theories of physics. The book is divided into two parts. In part 1 the methodological topics, scientific explanation, probabilistic explanation, laws of nature, interpretation of theories, the structure of physical theories, and evolution and revolution in scientific change, give the reader a rich sampling of current work in the general methodology of science. In part 2 the studies of foundational physics explore contemporary theories of space and time, quantum theories of fields, and statistical mechanics."
