Hooykaas(1906-1994) conveys a lifetime of historical thought aboutmodes of scientific advance over the centuries. In what variety ofways has the human mind, with all its subjectivity and its capacityfor self-deception, but also its piercing gifts of discovery, managedto come to terms with `the whimsical tricks of nature‘? Central tothis erudite, penetrating, and widely ranging study is Hooykaas‘sdistinction between .facts. (given by nature yet entirely subjectto our mode of interpreting them), .faith. (broad conceptions likethe idea of order, of simplicity, or of harmony), and .fictions.in the sense of those daring intellectual tools, such as theories andhypotheses and models, which reflect the scientist‘s creativeimagination. Case studies drawn from the history of all branches ofscience (including chemistry and the earth sciences) and fromAntiquity to the present day, serve to widen and to deepen theunderstanding of every reader (whether a historian of science or not)with a desire to learn more about the realities of the scientificpursuit. | | 出版日期 | Book 1999 | | 关键词 | Reijer Hooykaas; antiquity; historian of science; historical thought; natural theology; science; theory; hi | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-94-015-9295-6 | | isbn_softcover | 978-90-481-5248-3 | | isbn_ebook | 978-94-015-9295-6Series ISSN 0068-0346 Series E-ISSN 2214-7942 | | issn_series | 0068-0346 | | copyright | Springer Science+Business Media Dordrecht 1999 |
