Rezension

This book astonishes with its richness, its methodological relevance, and its novelty. We must recommend this book to a readership specializing in the history and philosophy of science because of the variety of approaches grouped together and because of its undeniable programmatic virtue. Christophe Eckes and translated by Rachel Keith, The Journal of the International Society for the History of Philosophy of Science
