Truth, Science and the Universe | Peter Atkins, Sophia Roosth, Tim Lewens
Philosophy For Our Times - Un pódcast de The Institute of Art and Ideas
Looking for a link we mentioned? It's here: https://linktr.ee/philosophyforourtimes Where once we made sense of the world using the idea of God, most of us now believe in a more scientific story, of an unfolding universe and evolution. Yet scientists increasingly see their theories as useful models rather than ultimate accounts. Is science then just another human description limited by language, culture and circumstance? In this episode of Philosophy for our Times, author of Conjuring the Universe Peter Atkins, Harvard historian of science Sophie Roosth and Cambridge philosopher and author of the Meaning of Science Tim Lewens scrutinise the limits and possibilities of science.
