Evidence, Explanation, and Realism: Essays in Philosophy of Science
Achinstein, Peter (Professor of Philosophy, Professor of Philosophy, Yeshiva University)
The 15 essays in this volume by the distinguished philosopher of science Peter Achinstein address three fundamental questions: What is required for a fact to be evidence for a scientific hypothesis? What is involved in giving a scientific explanation of a phenomenon? And should scientific theories be construed as aiming to correctly describe the entire world or only the observable parts of it?
