Explanation by David-Hillel Ruben

The aim of this series is to bring together important recent writings in major areas of philosophical inquiry, selected from a variety of sources, mostly periodicals, which may not be convenienty available to the university student or the general reader. The editor of each volume contributes an introductory essay on the items chosen and on the questions with which they deal. A selective bibliography is appended as a guide to further reading. This volume presents a selection of the most important recent writings on the nature of explanation. It covers a broad range of topics from the philosophy of science to the central philosophical terrain of the theory of knowledge. This volume is suitable for advanced undergraduate and graduate students of philosophy taking courses on the theory of knowledge, and academics and students in the natural and social sciences who are investigating the philosophical foundations of their disciplines.

`This book is ideal for a course on explanation, or a phil of sc course with a focus on explanation Desmond MClarke, University College, Cork
`A very useful collection of papers for a final year special study and also suitable for second year students in Theory of Knowledge as supplementary reading.' David Hirschmann, University of Bristol
