The essays collected together in Continental and Postmodern Perspectives in the Philosophy of Science explore the relationship between traditional, analytic, postmodern and continental understandings of science. They examine scientific methods and epistemologies, histories of the natural and social sciences, and the place of science in the modern and postmodern worlds. In bringing continental and postmodern perspectives to the critique of science, these essays challenge the boundaries that separate the arts and humanities and the sciences. They show how/that the changed and changing circumstances of the scientific project are transforming the meanings of science. As critical of the hegemony of the analytic approach to the philosophy of science this collection clears the way for a dialogue between analytic, hermeneutic, phenomenological and postmodern understandings of the scientific tradition in Western thought.Babich, Babette is the author of 'Continental and Postmodern Perspectives in the Philosophy of Science' with ISBN 9781859721926 and ISBN 1859721923.
