Models as Make-Believe: Imagination, Fiction and Scientific Representation de Adam Toon

Autor Adam Toon
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 17 oct 2012

Adam Toon develops a new approach to scientific models by comparing them to the dolls and toy trucks of children's imaginative games, and offers a unified framework to solve difficult metaphysical problems and help to make sense of scientific practice.
