This introductory text is for students of science with no prior knowledge of philosophy, as well as students of philosophy, who have no experience with science. Ladyman (philosophy, U. of Bristol, UK) avoids using math, thus limiting some of the issues discussed in favor of accessibility to a wider audience; but he avoids superficiality and addresses topics with a depth that will engage advanced students as well as working scientists and philosophers. Material is arranged in two major sections, the first on the scientific method induction and inductivism, falsificationism, and revolutions and rationality; and the second on realism and antirealism. Suggestions for further reading are provided at the end of each of chapter, and a five-page glossary of terms is included. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
