The Comprehensibility of the Universe: A New Conception of Science
Maxwell, Nicholas (Emeritus Reader in Philosophy of Science, Emeritus Reader in Philosophy of Science, University of London)
'The Comprehensibility of the Universe' puts forward a radically new conception of science. Nicholas Maxwell argues that the prevailing view of the relation between scientific theory and evidence is untenable; he calls for a new orthodoxy which sees science as making a hierarchy of assumptions about the comprehensibility of the universe.
