The Past, Present, and Future of Integrated History and Philosophy of Science

by Emily Herring (Editor), Kevin Jones (Editor), Konstantin Kiprijanov (Editor), Laura Sellers (Editor)

Overview

Integrated History and Philosophy of Science (iHPS) is commonly understood as the study of science from a combined historical and philosophical perspective. Yet, since its gradual formation as a research field, the question of how to suitably integrate both perspectives remains open. This volume presents cutting edge research from junior iHPS scholars, and in doing so provides a snapshot of current developments within the field, explores the connection between iHPS and other academic disciplines, and demonstrates some of the topics that are attracting the attention of scholars who will help define the future of iHPS.
