The philosophy of science is concerned
with the assumptions foundations method and implications of science.
It is also concerned with the use and merit of science and sometimes
overlaps metaphysics and epistemology by exploring whether scientific
results are actually a study of truth. Many philosophers of science also
consider problems that apply to particular sciences as example philosophy of
biology and philosophy of physics. Some philosophers of science also use
contemporary results in science to reach conclusions about philosophy.
Scientific philosophy believes that philosophy is one more science and that it
should apply the hypothetical-deductive method like any other science.
Its object of study is the reality as a
whole: it is all that is relevant to build our vision of the world and our
place in it, but it does not want to look at concrete details, which are the
object of study of other sciences. For example, it wants to know that nature works
with causes and consequences, but it do not want to study concrete natural
causes and consequences
