VAN FRAASSEN, B. C., Scientific Representation. Paradoxes of Perspective. Oxford University Press, 2010. 424p. Paperback. Although... Scientific Representation began life as a series of lectures, it is far more than that. Indeed, I regard it as the true successor to The Scientific Image, an even more mature exposition of an empiricist philosophy of science for a philosophical audience much broader than technical philosophers of science. It is a book rich in historical and contemporary insights which makes even greater breaks with the past than its influential predecessor. And the ever elegant style makes it a joy to read. Ronald N.
