- W2312343081 abstract "Joel Isaac has produced a remarkably erudite and readable account of the rise and development of scientific knowledge at Harvard University. There is always the risk in a study of this kind of telling a straightforward narrative about the emergence of departments and the influence of intellectual figureheads, focusing on which famous academics taught what classes. Working Knowledge steers clear of these attendant dangers, using Thomas Kuhn's 1962 treatise The Structure of Scientific Knowledge in the book's prologue and epilogue to indicate how knowledge was actively made at Harvard via practices of “thinking, calculating, experimenting, and teaching” (p. 6). Isaac is especially interested in tracing the shifts from a culture of pure epistemology to an embedded sense that philosophy of science is practically made in and by scientific communities. This practical bent comes through very strongly, as does Isaac's account of the rise of what he calls “scientific philosophy” through which key figures—from W. V. Quine and B. F. Skinner to Talcott Parsons and Kuhn—sought to replace transcendental a priori epistemology with everyday techniques and practices of scientific knowledge (p. 5). Isaac calls this post-Kantian traction of “embedded epistemology,” which is both “worldly” and, in this particular institutional story, grew out of the “array of academic subcultures” that make up the Harvard campus (pp. 16, 27)." @default.
