In my last post, I wrote that no resource out there exactly captured my model of epistemology, which is why I wanted to share a half-baked version of it.
But I do have one book which I always recommend to people who want to learn more about epistemology: Inventing Temperature by Hasok Chang.
To be very clear, my recommendation is not just to get the good ideas from this book (of which there are many) from a book review or summary — it's to actually read the book, the old-school way, one word at a time.
Why? Because this book teaches you the right feel, the right vibe for thinking about epistemology. It punctures the bubble of sterile non-sense that so easily pass for “how science works” in most people's education, such as the “scientific method”. And it does so by demonstrating how one actually makes progress in epistemology [...]
The original text contained 3 footnotes which were omitted from this narration.
