The British Journal for the Philosophy of Science encourages the application of philosophical techniques to issues raised by the natural and human sciences. These include general questions of scientific knowledge and objectivity, as well as more particular problems arising within specific disciplines. Topics currently being discussed in the journal include: causation, the logic of natural selection, the interpretation of quantum mechanics, the direction of time, probability, confirmation, foundations of mathematics, supertasks and the theory of emotion.
《英国科学哲学杂志》鼓励将哲学技巧应用于自然科学和人文科学所提出的问题。这些问题包括科学知识和客观性的一般问题,以及在具体学科中出现的更具体的问题。该杂志目前讨论的主题包括:因果关系、自然选择的逻辑、量子力学的解释、时间的方向、概率、证实、数学基础、超级任务和情感理论。
