Studies in History and Philosophy of Science, 2022
There is now a general consensus amongst philosophers in the values in science literature that values necessarily play a role in core areas of scientific inquiry. We argue that attention should now be turned from debating the value-free ideal to delineating legitimate from illegitimate influences of values in science, a project we dub "The New ...

Synthese, 2021While medicine is solidly grounded on scientific areas such as biology and chemistry, some argue that it is in its essence not a science at all.
