Description

Can science deliver genuine knowledge about the world and ourselves? Is science our only guide to what exists? Scientism answers both questions with yes. While this concept is increasingly influential in popular scientific literature and intellectual life, philosophers have largely ignored it until now. This collection from Oxford University Press is one of the first to develop and assess scientism as a serious philosophical position. This volume features twelve new essays contributed by both proponents and critics of scientism. The collection begins by defining what scientism is before moving into deep evaluation. It provides a comprehensive look at the growing influence of scientific thought in modern intellectual discourse, making it an essential read for those interested in the boundaries of science and philosophy.

This volume serves as one of the first academic works to develop and assess scientism as a serious topic.
