Having examined previous volumes of the Boston Studies series
devoted to different countries, and having discussed the best way
to present contemporary research in France, we have arrived at a
careful selection of 15 participants, including the organizers. Our
aim is to bring together philosophers and practicing scientist from
the major institutions of the country, both universities and
research centers. The areas of research represented here cover a
wide spectrum of sciences, from mathematics and physics to the life
sciences, as well as linguistics and economics. This selection is a
showcase of French philosophy of science, illustrating the
different methods employed: logico-linguistic analysis, rational
reconstruction and historical inquiry. These participants have the
ability to relate their research both to the French tradition and
current discussions on the international scene. Also included is a
substantial historical introduction, explaining the development of
philosophy of science in France, the various schools of thought and
methods as well as the major concepts and their significance.
