On Scientific Representations - From Kant to a New Philosophy of Science (Hardcover)

Scientific concepts, laws, theories, models and thought experiments are representations but uniquely different. In "On Scientific Representation" each is given a full philosophical exploration within an original, coherent philosophical framework that is strongly rooted in the Kantian tradition (Kant, Hertz, Vaihinger, Cassirer). Through a revisionist historical approach, Boniolo shows how the Kantian tradition can help us renew and rethink contemporary issues in epistemology and the philosophy of science.
