This provocative and critical work addresses the question of why
scientific realists and positivists consider experimental physics
to be a natural and empirical science. Taking insights from
contemporary science studies, continental philosophy, and the
history of physics, this book describes and analyses the
metaphysical presuppositions that underwrite the technological use
of experimental apparatus and instruments to explore, model, and
understand nature. By revealing this metaphysical foundation, the
author questions whether experimental physics is a natural and
empirical science at all.
