Alan Chalmers
Alan Chalmers is a teacher and researcher in the history and philosophy of the physical sciences. A prolific researcher with over 100 publications, his seminal text What is This Thing Called Science? (QUP 2013) is an internationally renowned teaching resource in the history and philosophy of science.
“Why is a dry-sounding account of the philosophy of science now in its fourth edition, since originally appearing in 1976, and unblushingly proclaimed a classic by Australia's leading academic publisher? One reason is that this book has been internationally hailed as the best available outline of scientific method, that civilisation-defining way of thinking."
"Science and all its imperfections"
Stephen Wilks, The Sydney Morning Herald
"Successive editions have retained and refined its clear, engaging and witty discussions of the most important topics in the field, incorporating the best new research in the field. This latest edition also adds a valuable layer of grounding in the history of science, particularly based on Chalmers' recent extensive research on the history of atomism."
Hasok Chang, Hans Rausing Professor of History and Philosophy of Science, University of Cambridge UK
