Quote by Hempel, Carl
"Theories gain credibility not through persuasive rhetoric, but through successful empirical support."
"Theories gain credibility not through persuasive rhetoric, but through successful empirical support."
"Science is a body of knowledge obtained by methods based upon the assumption that all natural phenomena follow natural laws."
"The function of explanation, whether historical or scientific, is to provide understanding."
"A theory is a well-substantiated explanation of natural phenomena, supported by vast amounts of evidence."
"The aim of science is understanding, not mere description."
