Modeling the Possible: Perspectives from Philosophy of Science: Routledge Studies in the Philosophy of Science
Editat de Tarja Knuuttila, Till Grüne-Yanoff, Rami Koskinen, Ylwa Sjölin Wirlingen Limba Engleză Hardback – 26 feb 2025
The volume is divided into three sections, plus an introductory chapter. The introductory chapter provides a state-of-the-art survey of the discussions of modeling possibilities within philosophy of science, as well as an introduction to the book’s main themes and individual papers. The three sections focus on different kinds of possibility concepts, possibility spaces, and how-possibly modeling in practical situations. The chapters contained in this volume address conceptual and theoretical issues while also presenting case studies from various scientific domains: physics, evolutionary and synthetic biology, network science, climate science, economics, and epidemiology.
Essential reading for philosophers of science, epistemologists, and modelers in various scientific disciplines, Modeling the Possible is also suitable for anyone interested in model-based scientific inferences, their validity, and the policy conclusions derived from them.
