It presents Hacking’s \u003ci\u003eoeuvre\u003c\/i\u003e as a network made up of four interconnected key nodes: styles of scientific thinking \u0026amp; doing, probability, making up people, and experimentation and scientific realism.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIts central claim is that Michel Foucault’s influence is the underlying thread that runs across the Canadian philosopher’s \u003ci\u003eoeuvre\u003c\/i\u003e. Foucault’s imprint on Hacking’s work is usually mentioned in relation to styles of scientific reasoning and the human sciences. This research shows that Foucault’s influence can in fact be extended beyond these fields, insofar the underlying interest to the whole corpus of Hacking’s works, namely the analysis of conditions of possibility, is stimulated by the work of the French philosopher.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDisplacing scientific realism as the central focus of Ian Hacking’s oeuvre opens up a very different landscape, showing, behind the apparent dispersion of his works, thefar-reaching interest that amalgamates them: to reveal the historical and situated conditions of possibility for the emergence of scientific objects and concepts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book shows how Hacking’s deployment concepts such as looping effect, making up people, and interactive kinds, can complement Foucauldian analyses, offering an overarching perspective that can provide a better explanation of the objects of the human sciences and their behaviors.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2021-01-20\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9783030647841\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-3-030-64785-8\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 175\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer International Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45378505080972,"sku":"9783030647841","price":89.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9783030647841.jpg?v=1776430852","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9783030647841","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
