Más información sobre el libro

Focusing on the concept of 'mechanism' in scientific practice, this book challenges the prevailing philosophical view that science inherently seeks mechanisms. It argues that 'mechanism' should be understood as a methodological tool rather than a statement of metaphysical beliefs, prompting a re-examination of how scientific inquiry is framed. The discussion aims to clarify the role of mechanisms in science and their implications for understanding scientific methodology.
