Although both philosophers and scientists are interested in how to
obtain reliable knowledge in the face of error, there is a gap
between their perspectives that has been an obstacle to progress.
By means of a series of exchanges between the editors and leaders
from the philosophy of science, statistics and economics, this
volume offers a cumulative introduction connecting problems of
traditional philosophy of science to problems of inference in
statistical and empirical modelling practice. Philosophers of
science and scientific practitioners are challenged to reevaluate
the assumptions of their own theories - philosophical or
methodological. Practitioners may better appreciate the
foundational issues around which their questions revolve and
thereby become better 'applied philosophers'. Conversely, new
avenues emerge for finally solving recalcitrant philosophical
problems of induction, explanation and theory testing.
