Beskrivelse

This timely book offers a wide-ranging study of the thesis that scientific theories are systematically "e;underdetermined"e; 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.
