The book addresses the challenge of relativism in post-empiricist philosophy of science by emphasizing the role of data domains created by scientific instruments. Ackermann argues that these instruments allow observations to become independent of theoretical frameworks, thereby establishing a foundation for scientific objectivity. Through this analysis, he provides a fresh perspective on how empirical data can inform and validate scientific theories.
