Que sais-je? Scienza & Filosofia: un dialogo (im)possibile

Abstract

Que sais-je? Science & Philosophy: an (im)possible dialogue S&F_, Science&Philosophy. Two terms entwisted by one ampersand (&). That means an exchange in the form of purchase and/or sale of goods. That & interwoves, distinguishes, approximates? Does it point out the market where a trickle of science is swapped for a portion of philosophy or where one buys transmission belts? The quality of the product is generally remarkable. Yet the issue that should be high on the agenda seems to slip away or to be shadowed: what does the philosopher ask the scientist and what does the scientist ask the philosopher?
