En savoir plus sur le livre

The book offers a philosophical analysis of reductive explanations in the life sciences, highlighting their distinct characteristics compared to non-reductive explanations. It presents a monistic account that applies uniformly across life sciences, focusing on ontic relations like part-whole and level relations. The author critically examines meta-philosophical assumptions and explores existing debates on reductionism in biology. Through five chapters, key concepts are analyzed, culminating in a comprehensive ontic account of reductive explanation that enhances understanding of explanatory practices.
