The articles in this volume deal with the main inferential methods
that can be applied to different kinds of experimental evidence.
These contributions - accompanied with critical comments - by
renowned scholars in the field of philosophy of science aim at
removing the traditional opposition between inductivists and
deductivists. They explore the different methods of explanation and
justification in the sciences in different contexts and with
different objectives.
The volume contains contributions on methods of the sciences,
especially on induction, deduction, abduction, laws, probability
and explanation, ranging from logic, mathematics, natural to the
social sciences. They present a highly topical pluralist
re-evaluation of methodological and foundational procedures and
reasoning, e.g. focusing in Bayesianism and Artificial
Intelligence.
They document the second international conference in Vienna on
"Induction and Deduction in the Sciences" as part of the Scientific
Network on "Historical and Contemporary Perspectives of Philosophy
of Science in Europe," funded by the European Science Foundation
(ESF).
