Rezensionen

"Continental philosophers in Britain and the United Stateshave for the most part ignored the enormous contribution ofcontinental philosophy to the philosophy of science, just asphilosophers of science in Britain and the United States have done.Gary Gutting has long been a leading exponent of the importance ofthis contribution and his superb collection, with its many newtranslations, should go a long way toward turning the tide."Robert Bernasconi, University of Memphis

"This masterful collection of original texts and expertcommentary demonstrates Continental philosophers' rich anddiverse engagement with science, dispelling the notion thatsignificant philosophical thinking about science is the soleprerogative of 'analytic' philosophers."Daniel Dahlstrom, Boston University

"This book makes a welcome contribution to the secondaryliterature on the history and philosophy of modern science. GaryGutting has assembled an impressive gallery of essays, whichcollectively advance a powerful, if relatively neglected,interpretation of the development of scientific method andpractice. The pairing of influential historical figures withleading contemporary commentators is especially valuable."Daniel W. Conway, The Pennsylvania State University
