Philosophy of Experimental Biology explores some central
philosophical issues concerning scientific research in experimental
biology, including genetics, biochemistry, molecular biology,
developmental biology, neurobiology, and microbiology. It seeks to
make sense of the explanatory strategies, concepts, ways of
reasoning, approaches to discovery and problem solving, tools,
models and experimental systems deployed by scientific life science
researchers and also integrates developments in historical
scholarship, in particular the New Experimentalism. It concludes
that historical explanations of scientific change that are based on
local laboratory practice need to be supplemented with an account
of the epistemic norms and standards that are operative in science.
This book should be of interest to philosophers and historians of
science as well as to scientists.
