Publication of a new book: Science and the method

We are happy to announce the publication of Nenad Smokrović’s book “Znanost i metoda” (Eng. “Science and the Method”).
The book is published by KruZak

Nenad Smokrović is a full professor in the Department of philosophy and Faculty of Economics at the University of Rijeka. He is also a long-term member of the Croatian Society for Analytic Philosophy.
His fields of interest are philosophy of logic, theories of rationality, and the methodology of scientific research.

In the book, Smokrović discusses issues related to the methodology of scientific research. The primary aim is not to state and describe specific methods how to conduct research in a scientific field. Rather, the aim is to explain the nature of scientific research, the relationship between theory and reality, and to make salient the criteria common to all sciences, but also to indicate peculiarities pertaining to specific scientific fields. The special focus is on the field of economical studies to which the insights drawn form a more general level are applied. (Taken from Kruzak)
