Introduction

Welcome to our first meeting! Everyone is welcome.

After a short introduction, we'll discuss the two readings below. As you are reading them, please jot down questions that you would like to pose to the group. These can be about things that you think need clarifying, things you find puzzling, or even disagree with.

It would be great if you could read both, but if you only had time for one, please read the Dear chapter.

Readings:
1. Introduction, The Intelligibility of Nature: How Science Makes the World (Peter Dear)
2. Chapter 1 (Introduction), Theory and Reality: An Introduction to the Philosophy of Science (Peter Godfrey-Smith)
