ISBN: 9780415581820　Year: 2011 　Price: GBP 250.00
Author: Lynch, Michael
A b s t r a c t


Science and Technology Studies has attained a strong international profile in recent decades. Science Studies incorporates work in the History and Philosophy of Science, but emphasizes the social, cultural, and political implications of developments in the natural sciences, mathematics, engineering, and medicine. The Sociology of Science remains a vital part of Science Studies, but many other key contributors in the field identify more strongly with core disciplines such as Anthropology, Political Science, and Communication Studies.
Edited by a leading scholar in the field, this new four-volume collection from Routledge brings together classic work and the very best contemporary and cutting-edge scholarship. It provides researchers-and advanced students-with easy access to the key items of scholarly literature, material that is otherwise inaccessible or scattered throughout a variety of specialist journals and books. In particular, the collection enables users to gain a deep understanding of the current controversies surrounding science. The materials gathered exemplify important arguments, empirical studies, perspectives, and controversies (such as 'the science wars' of the 1990s).
The collection also includes a full index, together with a comprehensive introduction, newly written by the editor, which places the collected material in its historical and intellectual context. Science and Technology Studies is an essential work of reference and will be welcomed as a vital one-stop research and pedagogic resource.

A b s t r a c t


Originally published in 1982. Taking a radical interpretation of the Kuhnian concept of paradigm incommensurability, the authors begin by discussing the difficulties of gaining access to the ideas of communities with different rational categories, and then define the subject area of parapsychology, offering a review of the relevant literature. After exploring parapsychology𠏋 compatibility with science, physics, psychology and quantum theory, the authors move on from this predominantly theoretical framework, and devote the middle section to an empirical study of metal bending. They conclude with an examination of the results, analyse diverse interpretations and investigate the consequences for the idea of scientific revolution.

VD16-18-34 Explanation and Understanding.(文景書局)

ISBN: 9780415470216　Year: 2008 　Price: GBP 120.00
Author: Henrik, von Wright Georg
A b s t r a c t


This volume distinguishes between two main traditions in the philosophy of science - the aristotelian, with its stress on explanation in terms of purpose and intentionality, and the galilean, which takes causal explanation as primary. It then traces the complex history of these competing traditions as they are manifested in such movements as positivism, idealism, Marxism and contemporary linguistic analysis. Hempels's theory of scientific explanation, the claims of cybernetics the rise of an analytic philosophy of action and the revival of hermenuetics are all discussed. The volume also deals with causal explanation, intentionality and teleological explanation, and explanation in history and the social sciences. The author concludes that explanation of human actions cannot be reduced to simple causality, and discusses the implications of this conclusion for the disciplines of history and sociology.

VD16-18-33 Foundations of Inference in Natural Science.(文景書局)

ISBN: 9780415475013　Year: 2008 　Price: GBP 170.00
Author: Wisdom, J. O.
A b s t r a c t


Originally published in 1952. This book is a critical survey of the views of scientific inference that have been developed since the end of World War I. It contains some detailed exposition of ideas – notably of Keynes – that were cryptically put forward, often quoted, but nowhere explained. Part I discusses and illustrates the method of hypothesis. Part II concerns induction. Part III considers aspects of the theory of probability that seem to bear on the problem of induction and Part IV outlines the shape of this problem and its solution take if transformed by the present approach.

VD16-18-32 Beyond Empiricism.(文景書局)

ISBN: 9780415475006　Year: 2008 　Price: GBP 180.00
Author: Tudor, Andrew
A b s t r a c t


Originally published in 1982. This volume explores some features of modern philosophy of science from the point of view of their utility for sociology𠏋 self-understanding. Recently philosophers of science have broken with the empiricism once fundamental to their discipline, and have sought alternative methods of science. Founded on the belief that these developments are significant for sociologists, the book explores the failings of the old "received view" and some of the more recent alternatives. It proposes a schematic outline of the structure of inquiry, paying detailed attention to questions about the nature of theory, explanation and demonstration.

VD16-18-31 Evidence and Explanation in Social Science.(文景書局)

ISBN: 9780415474993　Year: 2008 　Price: GBP 170.00
Author: Studdert-Kennedy, Gerald
A b s t r a c t


Originally published in 1975.

ISBN: 9780415474382　Year: 2008 　Price: GBP 44.99
Author: Branfield, Wilfred
A b s t r a c t


Originally published in 1950, this book challenged the basis of our beliefs about the relation of life to matter. Already aware that chalk, limestone and coal seams are the residues of ancient life, the author suggests that this knowledge may also be applied to the rest of matter. In that case, he argues, the origin of the world was not cosmic upheaval which broke down at last into life, but organic life itself.

VD16-18-29 Philosophy and Scientific Realism.(文景書局)

ISBN: 9780415474979　Year: 2008 　Price: GBP 170.00
Author: Smart, J. J. C.
A b s t r a c t


Originally published in 1963. In an introductory chapter the author argues that philosophy ought to be more than the art of clarifying thought and that it should concern itself with outlining a scientifically plausible world view. Early chapters deal with phenomenalism and the reality of theoretical entities, and with the relation between the physical and biological sciences. Free will, issues of time and space and man’s place in nature are covered in later chapters.

VD16-18-28 Method in the Physical Sciences.(文景書局)

Author: Schlesinger, G.
A b s t r a c t


Originally published in 1963. Can one discern certain regularities in the manoeuvrings and techniques employed by scientists and can these be formulated into the methodological principles of science? What is the origin and basis of such principles? Are they imposed by objective realities, do they derive from conceptual necessities or are they rooted in our own deep seated predilections? This volume investigates these questions and sheds light on the growth mechanism of the evolving structure of science itself.

VD16-18-27 Science and Religion.(文景書局)

ISBN: 9780415475020　Year: 2008 　Price: GBP 170.00
Author: Schilling, Harold K.
A b s t r a c t


Originally published in 1963.This volume provides a rigorous interpretation that portrays science and religion in their actualities as personal, communal and cultural phenomena involving different concerns, conceptions and modes of inquiry. The role of key aspects of their life and thought are investigated. They are found to be remarkably alike and their basic differences, far from making them mutually exclusive, reveal them as potentially complimentary and mutually helpful.

VD16-18-26 Francis Bacon: From Magic to Science.(文景書局)

This volume investigates its underlying purpose and creation, at the same time uncovering the real nature of its debt to Francis Bacon and its role in the scientific revolution of the seventeenth century.

VD16-18-24 Science, technology and economic growth in the eighteenth century.(文景書局)

ISBN: 9780415474931　Year: 2008 　Price: GBP 170.00
Author: Musson, A. E.
A b s t r a c t


Originally published in 1972.This book illustrates the growing awareness of the importance of science and technology in the Industrial Revolution. The contributors show that the growth in the teaching and literature of natural philosophy (mechanics, hydraulics etc), mathematics and chemistry, together with such new agencies as "philosophical societies", itinerant lecturers and libraries were significant factors in the development of the Industrial Revolution.

VD16-18-23 Philosophy of Science and Sociology.(文景書局)

ISBN: 9780415474924　Year: 2008 　Price: GBP 150.00
Author: Mokrzycki, Edmund
A b s t r a c t


Originally published in 1983. This book concentrates on the impact of philosophy of science on sociology and other disciplines. It argues that the impact of the philosophy of science on sociology from the rise of the Vienna Circle until the mid-1980s resulted in a deep-reaching and, in the author’s view, undesirable methodological reorientation in sociology.
