Models as Make-Believe: Imagination, Fiction and Scientific Representation - New Directions in the Philosophy of Science
Adam Toon
Scientists often try to understand the world by building simplified and idealised models of it. Adam Toon develops a new approach to scientific models by comparing them to the dolls and toy trucks of children's imaginative games, and offers a unified framework to solve difficult metaphysical problems and help to make sense of scientific practice.
