Science As a Process: An Evolutionary Account of the Social and Conceptual Development of Science (Science and Its Conceptual Foundations Series) - Hardcover
Inhaltsangabe
Hull applies an evolutionary model of selection processes to scientists and their work, showing that competition and cooperation among scientists result in the selective retention of new scientific ideas. As a model he offers a detailed history of theoretical struggles during the last two decades in systematic zoology, a field with which he's intimately acquainted. Hull shows that bias, personal commitments, and self-interest are the norm in science. He argues that scientific knowledge grows not in spite of these seeming flaws but because of them.
