Logical Empiricism as Scientific Philosophy Hardback
by Alan W. (University of British Columbia) Richardson
Part of the Elements in the Philosophy of Science series
Hardback
Description
This Element offers a new account of the philosophical significance of logical empiricism that relies on the past forty years of literature reassessing the project.
It argues that while logical empiricism was committed to empiricism and did become tied to the trajectory of analytic philosophy, neither empiricism nor logical analysis per se was the deepest philosophical commitment of logical empiricism.
That commitment was, rather, securing the scientific status of philosophy, bringing philosophy into a scientific conception of the world.
