Description

This scholarly volume collects papers from a 2009 workshop organised by the unit for History and Philosophy of Science in Sydney, examining how empiricism developed through renewed interest in the body as both research object and subject of experience. The fifteen chapters provide fresh perspectives on Baconian science, exploring the body's dual role in early modern scientific practice and theory. Spanning history and philosophy of science, the collection addresses fundamental questions about embodied knowledge and the relationship between physical experience and scientific method during the development of modern empiricism.

Key Features

The book contains fifteen chapters offering fresh perspectives on how the body functioned in Baconian science as research object and medium of experience.

Published by Springer as part of Studies in History and Philosophy of Science series, volume 25, providing peer-reviewed academic content.

Papers explore embodied empiricism in early modern science, connecting philosophical theory with historical development of scientific practice.

The collection represents an interdisciplinary contribution drawing on history, philosophy, and science studies to examine the role of physical experience in knowledge production.
