Falsifiability and the scientific theory

The need for a clear distinction between scientific theory and metaphysical theory underlies the fundamental question of what "science is".

Pseudoscience

Astrology is a classic example of pseudo-science, at least until a conception of science and in particular of solid astronomy has been established.

Induction and the History of Science

Many scientists and philosophers - from 400 BC, with Aristotle, and until the mid-nineteenth century - have argued that some organisms can spontaneously generate from non-living matter, on the basis of different experiences that suggested this generalization. 

Induction and life

On many occasions of everyone's daily life, it often happens that we use the induction method to make generalizations.
