Review of de PAZ, M., VALOR, J. A. (eds.) Ciencia y método en los siglos XIX y XX. Madrid: Plaza y Valdez, 421, 2023.

We review the book Ciencia y método en los siglos XIX y XX, edited by Juan Antonio Valor and María de Paz, published by Plaza y Valdez in 2023. This ambitious work bridges the disciplines of history, philosophy, and science to provide a richly detailed account of how scientific paradigms have evolved in response to both internal theoretical shifts and external societal pressures. Through its thirteen chapters, various authors examine not only the philosophical foundations of science but also its ethical dilemmas, societal impacts, and interdisciplinary connections. In this review, we explore some of the book's intersections between historical narrative and philosophical critique, highlighting the intricate web of cultural, technological, and intellectual factors that shape scientific inquiry.
