Description

Explore new dimensions of scientific classification with Perspectives on Classification in Synthetic Sciences: Unnatural Kinds. Published by Routledge as part of the History and Philosophy of Technoscience series, this volume shifts the focus from traditional natural kinds to the study of unnatural or synthetic kinds. While most philosophical discussions center on kinds that exist independently of scientific synthesis, this book examines how classification works within the process of creation. Through an in-depth study of three specific paradigm cases, the text examines nanomaterials, stem cells, and synthetic biology. This approach provides a fresh way to understand how modern science categorizes the entities it produces. It is an essential resource for those interested in the history and philosophy of science, offering a contemporary conversation on how technoscience redefines our understanding of the world through synthetic processes.
