All Philosophy of Science

Philosophers principally known for theories of scientific method, explanation, theory change, and the demarcation of science from non-science, including the philosophical study of biology as a science in its own right. Belongs here: philosophers of the experimental and inductive method, falsificationism, paradigm theory, and the logical-positivist analysis of scientific language, folded together with philosophy of biology here rather than as its own single-member subcategory given this atlas's current holdings. Does not belong here: working scientists whose philosophical reflection is incidental to their scientific work, whose domain facets belong on this atlas's sibling Science Atlas.
