520    Edited by Daniel Rothbart of George Mason University in 
       Virginia, this book is a collection of Rom Harř's work on 
       modeling in science (particularly physics and psychology).
       In over 28 authored books and 240 articles and book 
       chapters, Rom Harř of Georgetown University in Washington,
       DC is a towering figure in philosophy, linguistics, and 
       social psychology. He has inspired a generation of 
       scholars, both for the ways in which his research is 
       carried out and his profound insights. For Harř, the 
       stunning discoveries of research demand a kind of thinking
       that is found in the construction and control of models. 
       Iconic modeling is pivotal for representing real-world 
       structures, explaining phenomena, manipulating instruments,
       constructing theories, and acquiring data. This volume in 
       the new Elsevier book series Studies in 
       Multidisciplinarity includes major topics on the structure
       and function of models, the debates over scientific 
       realism, explanation through analogical modeling, a 
       metaphysics for physics, the rationale for experimentation,
       and modeling in social encounters. * A multidisciplinary 
       work of sweeping scope about the nature of science * 
       Revolutionary interpretation that challenges conventional 
       wisdom about the character of scientific thinking * 
       Profound insights about fundamental challenges to 
       contemporary physics * Brilliant discoveries into the 
       nature of social interaction and human identity * Presents
       a rational conception of methods for acquiring knowledge 
       of remote regions of the world * Written by one of the 
       great thinkers of our time.
