Abstract

Paolo Parrini discusses here the links between science and philosophy from an epistemological viewpoint, addressing the problem by distinguishing between its historical and theoretical dimensions. He discusses the necessary link between formal epistemology and history, and in this frame identifies different areas of intersection between science and philosophy.
