Science as Thinking Reason

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  01 January 2024

Paolo Parrini*
Affiliation:
University of Florence

Abstract

The author discusses the evolution of Heidegger's conception of science and brings out its limits as well as its possible developments. An eminent representative of contemporary thinking in the theory of knowledge, Paolo Parrini stands in a line of critical realism in the Kantian neopositivist tradition. This paper returns to and develops the lectio delivered at the award of the ‘Giulio Preti’ Prize in November 2008.
