Marcel Weber Bücher

Focusing on key philosophical questions, this work delves into the intricacies of scientific research within the realm of experimental biology. It examines the ethical implications, methodologies, and theoretical frameworks that underpin biological experiments, encouraging readers to reflect on the foundational principles guiding scientific inquiry. Through a critical lens, it challenges conventional perspectives and highlights the interplay between philosophy and empirical research in understanding life sciences.

Taking a causal perspective, this Element examines to what extent and how developmental biology, having turned molecular about four decades ago, has been able to meet the vitalist challenge. This title is also available as Open Access on Cambridge Core.
