Empiricism and Philosophy of Physics

Maggiori informazioni sul libro

The book offers a comprehensive empiricist perspective on physics, tracing the evolution of empiricism from Ockham to van Fraassen. It establishes a unique version of empiricism based on three core ideas: nominalism, which rejects second-order quantification; epistemological naturalism; and the notion that classifying entities into natural kinds is merely a human practice that requires no justification.
