Sách New Mechanism. Explanation, Emergence and Reduction (sách keo gáy, bìa mềm)
This Open Access book addresses the epistemological
and ontological significance as well as the scope of new mechanism. In
particular, this book addresses the issues of what is "new" about new
mechanism, the epistemological and ontological reasons underlying the
adoption of mechanistic instead of other modelling strategies as well as
the possibility of mechanistic explanation to accommodate a non-trivial
notion of emergence. Arguably, new mechanism has been particularly
successful in making sense of scientific practice in the molecular life
sciences. But what about other sciences? This book enlarges the context
of analysis, addressing the issue of the putative compatibility between
the current ways of conceiving new mechanism and actual scientific
practices in quantum physics, chemistry, biochemistry, developmental
biology and the cognitive sciences.
