The logic of discovery is nothing but the conceptualization of the rationality of scientific inquiry; yet each of the major logics of discovery - inductivism, hypothetico-deductivism, and retroductionism - has failed to conceptualize it. The author argues that the interrogative approach to scientific inquiry is one of the most promising alternatives, and he formulates a unique interrogative model which conceptualizes the rationality of scientific inquiry.

The Logic of Discovery is a significant contribution to an important topic that has been neglected by philosophers. It includes a thorough and useful survey of the recent literature on scientific discovery, original contributions to the methodology of questioning in science and a well documented case study concerning the search for an explanation of dinosaur extinction. It should not be overlooked by anyone interested in the methods of scientific research. Scott A. Kleiner, University of Georgia
