Abstract

This second part deals with the philosophy of the empirical sciences. It contains the following subjects: modern empiricism vs. old English empiricism, Popper's falsificationism, Carnap's inductive logic, some of the problems connected with statistical probability, the two-level conception of the language of science, and modern approaches to scientific explanation. In addition, I have included one section on the linguistic turn of the thirties (Wittgenstein, Carnap) and one on the historical turn of the sixties and seventies (T.S. Kuhn).
