Analysis, 2013
1. Introduction Undoubtedly the title of this article requires a qualifier. Such a wealth of interesting work has been done in philosophy of physics so far this century that I cannot describe it in any substantial depth here. However, many excellent overviews of recent work in the field have already been written, and beautifully so.

The Philosophy of Physical Science
Nature, 1941THE correspondence on this subject provides a most enlightening example of the present transition in scientific philosophy from the view that science is a description of an objective external world to the view that it is a formulation of the relations found between experiences.

A magisterial study of the philosophy of physics that both introduces the subject to the non-specialist and contains many original and important contributions for professionals in the area. Modern physics was born as a part of philosophy and has retained to this day a properly philosophical concern for the clarity and coherence of ideas.
