From Lucretius throwing a spear beyond the boundary of the
universe to Einstein racing against a beam of light, thought
experiments stand as a fascinating challenge to the necessity of
data in the empirical sciences. Are these experiments, conducted
uniquely in our imagination, simply rhetorical devices or
communication tools or are they an essential part of scientific
practice? This volume surveys the current state of the debate and
explores new avenues of research into the epistemology of thought
experiments.
