Abstract
[This text offers three aspects regarding the current trends in philosophy of science and prospects for the near future. First, the philosophical framework in which these most influential trends are situated. In these, there is novelty in terms of the topics covered and the approaches provided, along with continuity in other trends. Second, this initial chapter affords the main lines of research followed in the other chapters offered here, which are articulated in the five thematic parts in the book: (I) Philosophy of Medicine and Climate Change; (II) Philosophy of Artificial Intelligence and the Internet; (III) New Analyses of Probability and the Use of Mathematics in Practice; (IV) Scientific Progress Revisited; and (V) Scientific Realism and the Instrumentalist Alternative. Third, the origin of this book and its link with the Center for Research in Philosophy of Science and Technology (CIFCYT) of the University of A Coruña.]
