COMPARISON OF THE
PHILOSOPHER’S IDEAS
On Philosophy of Science
Philosophy of Science
According to Magnani
is concerned with the assumptions, foundations,
methods, implications of science, and with the use and merit of science. This
discipline sometimes overlaps metaphysics and epistemology, viz., when it explores whether scientific results comprise a study
of truth
According to Agazzi
philosophy of science, accepting in it also an axiology of science that could enable us to retain the cognitive value of science and at the same time to make techno-scientific activity
compatible with the satisfaction of a great variety
of values that inspire our societies.
Philosophy of Science
PHILOSOPHER’S IDEALS
Ideals and its Focus
Lorenzo Magnani Evandro Agazzi
ABDUCTIVE REASONINGis a form of logical
inference that goes from data description of something to a
hypothesis that accounts for the reliable data and seeks to explain relevant
evidence
SCIENTIFIC REALISM
he characterizes the scientific objectivity and
the defense of a "scientific realism“ is
based on a deepening of the notions of reference
and truth, with its implications of ontological type
There views are almost the same,
because it requires TRUE EVIDENCES and REFERENCES in order for them to
achieve a deepened and
reliable outcome.
