Steven French is a philosopher known for his work in the philosophy of science and metaphysics. He explores how scientific theories represent the world and the nature of scientific explanation. One of his key ideas is the importance of understanding scientific models—not just as tools for prediction, but as ways of understanding complex phenomena. He emphasizes that the relationships between different scientific theories and their underlying structures can reveal deeper truths about the world, challenging traditional views about the nature of reality and how we should understand scientific knowledge.
