Description
Robert Batterman examines a form of scientific reasoning called asymptotic reasoning, arguing that it has important consequences for our understanding of the scientific process as a whole.
He maintains that asymptotic reasoning is essential for explaining what physicists call universal behavior.
With clarity and rigor, he simplifies complex questions about universal behavior, demonstrating a profound understanding of the underlying structures that ground them.
This book introduces a valuable new method that is certain to fill explanatory gaps across disciplines.
