书目名称 | Models as Make-Believe | 副标题 | Imagination, Fiction | 编辑 | Adam Toon | 视频video | | 丛书名称 | New Directions in the Philosophy of Science | 图书封面 |  | 描述 | Scientists often try to understand the world by building simplified and idealised models of it. Adam Toon develops a new approach to scientific models by comparing them to the dolls and toy trucks of children‘s imaginative games, and offers a unified framework to solve difficult metaphysical problems and help to make sense of scientific practice. | 出版日期 | Book 2012 | 关键词 | building; fiction; imagination; knowledge; metaphysics; model; play; toy | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1057/9781137292230 | isbn_softcover | 978-1-349-33687-6 | isbn_ebook | 978-1-137-29223-0Series ISSN 2947-6828 Series E-ISSN 2947-6836 | issn_series | 2947-6828 | copyright | Palgrave Macmillan, a division of Macmillan Publishers Limited 2012 |
