Philosophy of Science 1 - Induction and Naive Inductivism
In this video, I outline the difference between inductive and deductive reasoning, and then examine the “naive inductivist“ model of the scientific method, according to which science essentially involves collecting a large number of unbiased observations and then drawing inductive generalizations on the basis of these.
This series is not based on any particular book, but “Understanding Philosophy of Science“ by James Ladyman and “Theory and Reality“ by Peter Godfrey-Smith are two introductions to philosophy of science that have been helpful to me, and are good places to go for further reading. I also recommend “Representing and Intervening“ by Ian Hacking.
