XII-The Twilight of Empiricism
Proceedings of the Aristotelian Society (Hardback), 2004There is a principle that both generates and destroys empiricism. It is a plausible principle, thus often appealed to.

It is historically sketchy.

In the context of current debate concerning modes of inquiry, this paper addresses the role of empiricism in nursing science. The author argues that, while not the only valid perspective, empiricism should remain a dominant perspective in nursing research because many of the questions we need to study are consistent with this view.

Within the Viennese Circle Physicalism has led to a division of opinion, which mainly finds its expression2 in the fact that the Physicalists are reproached by their opponents with having broken with the principles of ...

At the risk of being regarded a ‘square’ and ‘reactionary’ I wish to defend, explicate, reformulate and ‘salvage’ whatever seems valuable to me in the empiricist tradition in the philosophy of science.
