More about the book
Challenging contemporary empiricisms, the book presents a philosophical argument that positions science within a broader metaphysical framework, focusing on nature, law, and causality. It critiques various established philosophical views through an Aristotelian lens, advocating for a realist interpretation of science. By engaging with Aristotle's original texts and subsequent interpretations, the author aims to illuminate the deeper principles underlying scientific inquiry beyond mere description and prediction.
