Beschreibung
R.I.G Hughes presents eight philosophical essays on the theoretical practices of physics. The first two essays examine these practices in physicists' treatises and journal articles, and cast the philosopher of science in the role of critic. This premise guides the following essays, which deal with central concerns in philosophy and physics.
