In this book Emma Ruttkamp demonstrates the power of the full-blown
employment of the model-theoretic paradigm in the philosophy of
science. Within this paradigm she gives an account of sciences as
process and product. She expounds the "received statement" and the
"non-statement" views of science, and shows how the model-theoretic
approach resolves the spurious tension between these views. In this
endeavour she also engages the views of a number of contemporary
philosophers of science with affinity to model theory. This text
can be read by specialists working in philosophy of science or
formal semantics, by logicians working on the structure of
theories, and by students in philosophy of science - this text
offers a thorough introduction to non-statement accounts of
sciences as well as a discussion of the traditional statement
account of science.
