1. From the Current Trends in Philosophy of Science to the Prospects for the Near Future (Wenceslao J. Gonzalez) -- Part I. Philosophy of Medicine and Climate Change. 2. Philosophy of science meets medicine (again): a clearer-sighted view of the virtues of blinding and of tests for blinding in clinical trials (John Worrall) -- 3. Environmental decision-making under uncertainty (Joe Roussos, Richard Bradley, and Roman Frigg) -- Part II. Philosophy of Artificial Intelligence and the Internet. 4. Artificial Intelligence and Philosophy of Science from the 1990s to the early 2020s (Donald Gillies and Marco Gillies) -- 5. Whatever happened to the logic of discovery? From transparent logic to alien reasoning (Thomas Nickles) -- 6. Scientific Side of the Future of the Internet as a Complex System. The Role of Prediction and Prescription of Applied Sciences (Wenceslao J. Gonzalez) -- Part III. New Analyses of Probability and the Use of Mathematics in Practice. 7. From Logical to Probabilistic Empiricism: Arguments for Pluralism (Maria Carla Galavotti) -- 8. Instrumental Realism -- A New Start for Mathematics and Scientific Practice (Ladislav Kvasz) -- Part IV. Scientific Progress Revisited. 9. Scientific Progress and the Search for Truth (Philip Kitcher) -- 10. The Logic of Qualitative Progress in Nomic, Design, and Explicative Research (Theo Kuipers) -- Part V. Scientific Realism and the Instrumentalist Alternative. 11. Explicating Inference to the Best Explanation (Ilkka Niiniluoto) -- 12. Re-inflating the Realism-Instrumentalism Controversy (Stathis Psillos) -- Index.

This book seeks to provide new perspectives, to broaden the field of philosophy of science, or to renew themes that have had a great impact on the profession. Thus, after an initial chapter to situate the current trends in philosophy of science and the prospective of the near future, it offers contributions in five thematic blocks: I) Philosophy of Medicine and Climate Change; II) Philosophy of Artificial Intelligence and the Internet; III) New Analyses of Probability and the Use of Mathematics in Practice; IV) Scientific Progress Revisited; and V) Scientific Realism and the Instrumentalist Alternative. Within this framework, the volume addresses such relevant issues as the methodological validity of medical evidence or decision making in situations of uncertainty; recent advances in Artificial Intelligence and the future of the Internet; current forms of empirically based methodological pluralism and new ways of understanding mathematics with scientific practice; and the revision of the approaches to scientific progress based on the experiences accumulated in recent decades.
