PHIL 222 - Philosophy of Science Next Offered: 2016-2017 Semester Offered: Second Semester Full Course Credits: 4 credits Attribute: 4HU
Our best scientific theories seemingly posit an array of entities which we are unable to detect with the unaided senses, but which nonetheless underlie the world of everyday experience – things such as genes, electrons, and magnetic fields. Do we have good reason to believe in such entities? And do we arrive at the theories in question by employing a ‘scientific method’ which guarantees truth and objectivity? Enrollment Limit: 30 Instructor: M. Thomson-Jones Prerequisites & Notes One course in Philosophy.
