This book gives good, clear coverage of the mayor areas in the philosophy of science and diversity of the viewpoints within those areas without suggesting that they are equally accepted. It cannot be faulted for being sparse since it is an introductory book, but an introductory textbook should not be a dead end. The lack of an index and a robust set of recommended readings is frustrating if one wants to use this text as basic reference and a springboard to the important literature in the field. This book should only be worth about $20 especially since it is paperback. The price asked is likely due to the publisher taking advantage of the demand induced by university instructors when they list this as a required textbook.
