Philosophy of science is the branch of philosophy that studies the philosophical assumptions, foundations, and implications of science, including the formal sciences, natural sciences, and social sciences. In this respect, the philosophy of science is closely related to epistemology and the philosophy of language.

The philosophy of science includes a consideration of the following topics:

  • The character and the development of concepts and terms, propositions and hypotheses, arguments and conclusions, as they function in science.
