  • 我同意你的看法,库恩依然很值得一读,但关于科学哲学(Philosophy of Science)更好的入门书也许是拉里·劳丹的《科学与相对主义》(Science and Relativism)。他并没有全盘否定库恩式的相对主义,但也提出了批判,并且能帮你理清它在更大的争论中所处的位置。至少我记忆中是这样的。大学毕业都已经过去好久了 :/…

    I agree with you that Kuhn is still worth reading, but perhaps a better intro to Philosophy of Science can be found in Laudan's "Science and Relativism". He is not dismissive of Kuhnian-style relativism, but he is critical of it and helps you see how it fits into the larger debate. At least that's what I remember. It's been a while since college :/…

  • …任何想在今天研究道德哲学的人,书单里都该有麦金泰尔的《追寻美德》(After Virtue)。除了书单上波普尔和库恩的作品外,还要读读拉里·劳丹的《进步及其问题》(Progress and its problems)以及《科学与相对主义:科学哲学中的若干关键论争》(Science and Relativism: some key controversies in the philosophy of science)。这些归在科学哲学(Philosophy of Sciences)类目下。

    …MacIntyre's "After Virtue" should be on the list for any one who want to study Moral Philosophy today. Along with Popper and Kuhn's works on that list, read Larry Laudan's "Progress and its problems" and "Science and Relativism: some key controversies in the philosophy of science". This goes under Philosophy of Sciences.

  • …正例(positive instance)。数学模型会生成“正例”。非 ad-hoc 假设会生成确证例(confirming instances),这是一种特殊的正例。欲知详情,参见拉里·劳丹《科学与相对主义:科学哲学中的若干关键论争》第 61-62 页。我们来看看“所有天鹅都是白的”这个假说。有人不断做田野调查,说第 1001 只天鹅是白的,第 1002 只天鹅是白的,…

    …positive instance. Mathematical models generate "positive instances". A non-adhoc hypothesis generates confirming instances, a special type of positive instances. For more, pp. 61-62, Larry Laudan's "Science and Relativism: some key controversies in the philosophy of science. Lets look at a hypothesis that says "All swans are white". One keeps on doing field work, saying that 1001th swan is white, 1002th swan is white,…

    …for any one who want to study Moral Philosophy today. “After Virtue” is a legit recommendation. > Along with Popper and Kuhn's works on that list, read Larry Laudan's "Progress and its problems" and "Science and Relativism: some key controversies in the philosophy of science".
