The Logic of Thermostatistical Physics
Springer Verlag (2002)
Abstract
This book is devoted to a thorough analysis of the role that models play in the practise of physical theory. The authors, a mathematical physicist and a philosopher of science, appeal to the logicians’ notion of model theory as well as to the concepts of physicists.Author's Profile
