Biologists rely on theories, apply models and construct
explanations, but rarely reflect on their nature and structure.
This book introduces key topics in philosophy of science to provide
the required philosophical background for this kind of reflection,
which is an important part of all aspects of research and
communication in biology. It concisely and accessibly addresses
fundamental questions such as: Why should biologists care about
philosophy of science? How do concepts contribute to scientific
advancement? What is the nature of scientific controversies in the
biological sciences? Chapters draw on contemporary examples and
case studies from across biology, making the discussion relevant
and insightful. Written for researchers and advanced undergraduate
and graduate students across the life sciences, its aim is to
encourage readers to become more philosophically minded and
informed to enable better scientific practice. It is also an
interesting and pertinent read for philosophers of science.
