Naturalism Beyond the Limits of Science

How Scientific Methodology Can and Should Shape Philosophical Theorizing

Beschreibung

This volume argues that, when coming up with theories about what the world is like, philosophers should, whenever possible, make use of the same methodology that is deployed by scientists. Nina Emery's investigation illuminates the complex relationship between philosophy and the sciences, showing how philosophers and scientists alike would benefit from a greater understanding of the connections between the two fields.
