About this title

Synopsis

"Ernest Nagel's work, The Structure of Science, has earned for itself the status of an outstanding standard work in its field. It offers an exceptionally thorough and comprehensive methodological and philosophical exploration encountered in those diverse fields. Nagel's discussion is distinguished by the lucidity of its style, the incisiveness of its reasoning, and the solidity of its grounding in all the major branches of scientific inquiry. The Structure of Science has become a highly influential work that is widely invoked in the methodological and philosophical literature. Recent controversies between analytics and historic-sociological approaches to the philosophy of science have not diminished its significance; in fact, it seems to me that the pragmatist component in Nagel's thinking may be helpful for efforts to develop a rapprochement between the contending schools." --Carl G. Hempel

Shipping Terms

Based on a weight of 1 kg, UK postage is as stated using second class post unless other methods are requested by buyer at buyers expense. The preimum service will use Royal Mail Tracked and unless agreed, this is the default method for Antiquarian or rare books.

Also based on a quote of 1 kg, I have suggested estimates for international postage** outside** the UK and Europe using Royal Mail Economy, this is currently the cheapest but also the slowest. The premium service for antiquarian books is quoted from Royal Mail tracked and Signed.

Royal Mail Standard is the quote used for UK and Europe, the premium service for antiquarian books is quoted from Royal Mail tracked and Signed.

For quicker alternative international postage, l am happy to use a drop off service if requested. Please contact me by email for a quote and other options. I will endeavor to find the cheapest and fastest postal service for the weight of your purchase.
