Rustica (tapa blanda). Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: Nuevo. 01. La contingencia y el caos ocupan intensamente a la actual investigación científica. Se trata de una nueva revolución de la ciencia que está cambiando de manera sustancial el concepto de la naturaleza y que subvierte los principios y metas clásicos del pensamiento. . . . . . La investigación de Ian Hacking muestra que esta revolución tiene una larga prehistoria, en la que maduraron métodos que permitieron conceptualizar conjuntos complejos. En la época entre la Revolución Industrial y la Revolución Francesa se observan dos tendencias complementarias: la erosión del determinismo de las ciencias naturales y el inicio rápido perfeccionamiento de la estadística al servicio del control de la sociedad en un proceso dramático de complejización. La eficacia de la estadística modifica los conceptos de normalidad y anormalidad y permite dar cuenta de aspectos cada vez más detallados de fenómenos y procesos sociales. . . . . . Al final de este apasionante recorrido, el autor dedica un capítulo al filósofo C.S. Peirce, cuya teoría es paradigmática como inicio de las investigaciones del caos. . . . . . La domesticación del azar es una valiosísima contribución a la historia de las ciencias y las ideas. LIBRO.…
