The Empirical Stance (The Terry Lectures Series)
"Van Fraassen, the most influential empiricist of recent decades, combines a penetrating discussion of empiricism in science and philosophy with a sympathetic discussion of religion... An eloquent examination of empiricism and religion." Paul Thagard, Science; "An ambitious, absorbing, iconoclastic, metaphilosophical treatise." Richard Rotry, Notre Dame Philosophical Reviews; "This work argues powerfully for a radical redirection of much contemporary thinking in epistemology and other important topics. It should force all of us to rethink the nature of analytic philosophy." Paul Teller, author of An Interpretive Introduction to Quantum Field Theory"
