How much can we trust the claims of science? In Philosophy of Science: A Very Short Introduction (2nd edition), Samir Okasha tackles such profound questions with clarity and insight. The book invites readers to examine whether scientific knowledge can ever be completely objective and to ponder what truly defines science. Beginning with a succinct overview of the historical development of scientific thought, Okasha delves into the core practices of reasoning, causation, and explanation. He scrutinizes the patterns of scientific revolutions and debates the merits of realist and anti-realist perspectives, encouraging a deeper reflection on how scientific ideas evolve over time. Concluding with an exploration of the modern social and ethical issues raised by scientific advancements, this accessible work illuminates the enduring relevance of philosophy in understanding science. As part of the Very Short Introductions series, it offers a concise yet thought-provoking guide to some of the most challenging and fascinating themes in the philosophy of science.
