The Origins of Modern Philosophy of Science 1830-1914


Overview

The philosophy of science as it is known today emerged out of a combination of three traditional concerns: the classification of the sciences, methodology, and the philosophy of Nature. This collection contains contributions in all three of these interrelated areas. The collection will be of interest to both the philosopher of science and to the historian of ideas. The former will be able to trace present day concerns back to their origins; the latter will find it an invaluable source for the study of Victorian conceptions of science.
