Recenzii
This volume is a great contribution that will be of particular value to anyone interested in pragmatist approaches to philosophy of science.
The essays in this book are all rich and complex pieces, and I have only scratched the surface of what is interesting about each. No doubt the book will repay careful re-reading and application to future issues. It makes me feel that now is a good moment to be a pragmatist philosopher of science.
As emphasized in the introduction, this volume offers an alternative between this kind of strong realism based on "the end of science" and oversimplified operationalism and anti-realism, making it an essential resource for everyone working in metaphysics, philosophy of science, and the metaphysics of science. Authors did an excellent job of developing their ideas and articulating this pragmatist approach to current and lively debates in these fields.
