Title
Science, Understanding, And Justice: The Philosophical Essays Of Martin Eger,New
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Martin Egers work is the most insightful exploration of the social context of the natural sciences since C.P. Snows The Two Cultures, and a vital contribution to contemporary debates over scientific literacy.This collection of essays deals with controversial and topical issues in philosophy of science, education, and morality. Also included are exchanges between Eger and leading philosophers, including a dialogue with Abner Shimony, who edits this volume and contributes an account of Egers life, work, and importance.A professional physicist, Eger found that hermeneutic philosophy, associated with Heidegger, Gadamer, and Habermas, had developed techniques for unpacking meanings and for analyzing human claims to knowledge that strikingly parallels the theses of postempiricist philosophers of physics such as Thomas Kuhn. Egers application of hermeneutic methods enabled hermeneutics to be extended from social investigations to investigations of nature, and softened the attack of postempiricist philosophers on the ideal of objective truth.
