The composition, however, isuniquely related to our modern mode of living. Science did not existbefore modernity, and it will cease to exist in this form if our wayof life should change. The book presents a thorough analysis of allthese dimensions and their relations, and thus lays the path for anintegral theory of science. Because of this it can be used as atextbook for general courses in the theory of science at both theundergraduate and graduate level. | 出版日期 | Book 2000 | 关键词 | evolution; knowledge; science; theory of science; truth | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-94-010-9036-0 | isbn_softcover | 978-1-4020-0247-2 | isbn_ebook | 978-94-010-9036-0Series ISSN 0068-0346 Series E-ISSN 2214-7942 | issn_series | 0068-0346 | copyright | Kluwer Academic Publishers 2000 |
