Scientific Progress : A Study Concerning the Nature of the Relation Between Successive Scientific Theories
Publication year: 2007
: 978-1-4020-6354-1
In this book, Craig Dilworth answers all the questions raised by the incommensurability thesis. Logical empiricism cannot account for theory conflict. Popperianism cannot account for how one theory is a progression beyond another. Dilworth’s Perspectivist conception of science does both.
