Maggiori informazioni sul libro
The book delves into the philosophical debate surrounding the concept of truthlikeness, initiated by W. V. O. Quine's critique of Charles Peirce's definition of truth. It contrasts Quine's views with Karl Popper's defense of verisimilitude, a comparative notion of truth for theories. The text explores the historical confusion between verisimilitude and probabilitas, leading to skepticism about truthlikeness. Popper's significant contribution is highlighted, arguing that criticisms of truthlikeness stem more from prejudice than from substantive philosophical argumentation.
