Abstract

This is a survey of Michael Redhead's scholarly contributions to the philosophy of science, and especially the philosophy of physics. It is already published (2023) as a Biographical Memoir, written for the British Academy. These memoirs are surveys of the person’s scholarly contributions, intended for the academic reader who is, however, not a specialist in the field. So the format is that the memoir is to cite Redhead's publications, but not the research of others. Despite this limitation, it may be of interest to subscribers to the Pittsburgh archive.
