Included is description of a newly emergent specialty called computational philosophy of science, in which computerized discovery systems create and test new scientific theories.The book also examines the essentials of the underlying pragmatist philosophy of language that has made philosophy of science a coherent and analytical discipline, and that has given new meaning to such key concepts as “theory”, “observation” and “explanation”.This is the sixth edition.
