How was the hypothetical character of theories of experience thought about throughout the history of science? The essays cover periods from the middle ages to the 19th and 20th centuries. It is fascinating to see how natural scientists and philosophers were increasingly forced to realize that a natural science without hypotheses is not possible.
Die Aufsatzsammlung beschäftigt sich mit der Art und Weise, wie im Lauf der Geschichte der Naturwissenschaften über den hypothetischen Charakter von Erfahrungstheorien nachgedacht wurde. Der Bogen der behandelten Auffassungen spannt sich dabei vom Mittelalter über die frühe Neuzeit zum 19. und 20. Jahrhundert. Es ist faszinierend zu sehen, wie Naturwissenschaftler und Philosophen immer mehr einsehen mussten, dass das Ideal einer hypothesenfreien Naturwissenschaft unmöglich ist.
