Hanson brought Wittgensteinian ordinary language philosophy to bear on the concepts of science, and his treatments of observation, discovery, and the theory-ladenness of scientific facts remain central to the philosophy of science. Additionally, Hanson was one of philosophy’s great personalities, and his sense of humor and charm come through fully in the pages of \u003ci\u003ePerception and Discovery\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003ePerception and Discovery\u003c\/i\u003e, originally published in 1969, is Hanson’s posthumous textbook in philosophy of science. The book focuses on the indispensable role philosophy plays in scientific thinking. \u003ci\u003ePerception and Discovery \u003c\/i\u003efeatures Hanson’s most complete and mature account of theory-laden observation, a discussion of conceptual and logical boundaries, and a detailed treatment of the epistemological features of scientific research and scientific reasoning. This book is of interest to scholars of philosophy of science, particularly those concerned with Hanson’s thought and the development of the discipline in the middle of the 20\u003csup\u003eth\u003c\/sup\u003e century. However, even fifty years after Hanson’s early death,\u003ci\u003e Perception and Discovery\u003c\/i\u003e still has a great deal to offer all readers interested in science.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2018-12-22\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9783030099084\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-3-319-69745-1\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 339\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer International Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45416695529612,"sku":"9783030099084","price":116.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9783030099084.jpg?v=1776430821","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9783030099084","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
