The Pragmatist Challenge

Pragmatist Metaphysics for Philosophy of Science

Herausgeber: Andersen, H K; Mitchell, Sandra D

Beschreibung

Each chapter in this volume explores a dual vision of pragmatism in philosophy of science and metaphysics: specific pragmatist views are developed, demonstrating how to take a distinctively pragmatist approach to some particular issue or subfield; and the general shape of what it means to take a pragmatist approach is elucidated as well.
