Philosophy in an Age of Science: Physics, Mathematics, and Skepticism

by Hilary Putnam

Book Overview

Hilary Putnam's unceasing self-criticism has led to the frequent changes of mind he is famous for, but his thinking is also marked by considerable continuity. A simultaneous interest in science and ethics--unusual in the current climate of contention--has long characterized his thought. In Philosophy in an Age of Science, Putnam collects his papers for publication--his first volume in almost two decades.
