"It seemed to the author that there are two fundamental ideas which are of great importance and yet which are not easily brought home to science students. The first, that of a model, is perhaps the most important a scientist needs to grasp. The second is the great complexity of criteria used in judging the effectiveness of laws and theories in the sciences." --- Harr�: Lecturer in the Philosophy of Science, University of Oxford, Fellow of Linacre House. --- Papermac 137. --- First Edition 1960. This, the Second Reprint. Original illustrated white card covers, lettered black on spine, black and red on top cover (21.5 cm height). Age darkening to covers. Edges lightly browning.
