Perspectives on Classification in Synthetic Sciences: Unnatural Kinds de Julia Bursten

Perspectives on Classification in Synthetic Sciences: Unnatural Kinds: History and Philosophy of Technoscience

Editat de Julia Bursten
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 31 mar 2021
This volume launches a new series of contemporary conversations about scientific classification. Most philosophical conversations about kinds have focused centrally or solely on natural kinds, that is, kinds whose existence is not dependent on the scientific process of synthesis. This volume refocuses conversations about classification on unnatural, or synthetic, kinds via extensive study of three paradigm cases of unnatural kinds: nanomaterials, stem cells, and synthetic biology.
