Philosophy of Science A-Z

What is the aim and method of science? What makes science a rational activity? What rules, if any, govern theory-change in science? How does evidence relate to theory? How do scientific theories relate to the world? How are concepts formed and how are they related to observation? What is the structure and content of major scientific concepts, such as causation, explanation, laws of nature, confirmation, theory, experiment, model, reduction and so on?

This dictionary is an attempt to offer some guidance to all those who want to acquaint themselves with some major ideas in the philosophy of science. Here you will get: concepts, debates, arguments, positions, movements and schools of thought, glimpses on the views and contribution of important thinkers.
