AUTHOR
SUMMARY
Laudan constructs a fresh approach to a longtime problem for the philosopher of science: how to explain the simultaneous and widespread presence of both agreement and disagreement in science. Laudan critiques the logical empiricists and the post-positivists as he stresses the need for centrality and values and the interdependence of values, methods, and facts as prerequisites to solving the problems of consensus and dissent in science.Laudan, Larry is the author of 'Science and Values The Aims of Science and Their Role in Scientific Debate' with ISBN 9780520057432 and ISBN 0520057430.
