The truth about science
Tuesday 15 June at 6pm at the Royal Society
Medawar Lecture
By Professor Peter Lipton
Is science in the truth business or should we understand its aims in some other way? Peter Lipton, the Hans Rausing Professor of the History and Philosophy of Science at Cambridge University will answer questions like these in his lecture. He is a philosopher interested in how science works and what it achieves and a new edition of his book "Inference to the Best Explanation" was out in March.
