This timely book offers a wide-ranging study of the thesis that
scientific theories are systematically "underdetermined" by the
data they account for. After analyzing the epistemological and
ontological aspects of the topic in detail, and reviewing pertinent
logical facts and selected scientific cases, the author carefully
examines the merits of arguments for and against the thesis. Along
the way, he investigates methodological proposals and recent
theories of confirmation.
