Abstract

Philosophy of Chemistry—A New Interdisciplinary Field?

What could possibly be the connection between chemistry
and philosophy, apart from the obvious superficial one
of their both representing quests for knowledge? How do
contemporary chemists and philosophers generally view one
another? These are some of the questions I will try to put
before going on to describe the connections that have recently
been forged between these two seemingly very diverse fields
of academic study..
