Evidence-Based Philosophy

"Evidence-Based Philosophy" by Boris Kriger explores how philosophy's longstanding stalemate stems from methodological limitations and argues that existing tools like mathematical logic, Bayesian reasoning, information theory, and artificial intelligence can revolutionize the discipline. Through engaging historical narratives, Kriger explains why philosophy has struggled to progress and offers a practical, five-step framework for transforming philosophical claims into testable, verifiable propositions. The book emphasizes concepts such as the Reflexive Inference Constraint and Conceptual Responsibility, aiming to renew philosophy’s capacity for meaningful progress.
