The inaugural History and Philosophy of Science Workshop, bringing together faculty and graduate students from the Philosophy departments of Princeton University and Bilkent University, was held from October 13-15. The principal organizers for the event were Dan Garber (Princeton) and Alireza Fatollahi (Bilkent). Tarek Dika (Toronto) and David Miller (Auburn) joined the workshop as special guests. By all accounts, the workshop was a great success, both in terms of the quality of the discussions and rapport between participants. We’re already looking forward to the next edition!
The theme for this year’s discussions was the concept of ‘method’ as conceived in ancient and early modern times. A summary of the discussions that took place over the three-day event can be found here.
