In Second Philosophy, Penelope Maddy describes and practices a particularly austere form of naturalism called \"Second Philosophy.\" Without a definitive criterion for what counts as \"science\" and what doesn't, Second Philosophy can't be specified directly (\"trust only the methods of science\" for example), so Maddy proceeds instead by illustrating the behaviors of an idealized inquirer she calls the \"Second Philosopher.\" mhis Second Philosopher begins from perceptual common sense experimentation, theory formation and testing, working all the while to asses, correct and improve her methods as she goes. Second Philosophy is then the result of the Second Philosopher's investigations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 462\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.29 x 9.2 x 6.49 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e May 31, 2007\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47748924539129,"sku":"9780199273669","price":97.47,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/OsiP3euBXo9780199273669.webp?v=1775072725","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/second-philosophy-a-naturalistic-method-hardcover","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
