It features original and revised papers from a (formal) philosopher of science who has studied the concept for more than 35 years..Over the course of time, the author‘s initial ideas evolved. He discovered a way to generalize his first theory of nomic truth approximation, viz. by dropping an unnecessarily strong assumption. In particular, he first believed to have to assume that theories were maximally specific in the sense that they did not only exclude certain conceptual possibilities, but also that all non-excluded possibilities were in fact claimed to be nomically possible..Now, he argues that the exclusion claim alone, or for that matter the inclusion claim alone, is sufficient to motivate the formal definition of being closer to the nomic truth. The papers collected here detail this generalized view of nomic truthlikeness or verisimilitude..Besides this, the book presents, in adapted form, the relation with several other topics, such as, domain revision, aesthetic progress, abduction, inference to the best explanation, pragmatic aspects, probabilistic methods, belief revision and epistemological positions, notab | | 出版日期 | Book 2019 | | 关键词 | Nomic truth approximation; Verisimilitude; Confirmation and falsification; Empirical progress; Aesthetic | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-98388-2 | | isbn_ebook | 978-3-319-98388-2Series ISSN 0166-6991 Series E-ISSN 2542-8292 | | issn_series | 0166-6991 | | copyright | Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2019 |
