Why study of philosophy of science?

Philosophy is no longer a field of Science at all. Science, specifically Physics, did develop from Philosophy, and other Sciences developed from Physics. This (above) explains the term "PhD" (Doctor of Philosophy) and "Physician". There are many differences between Philosophy and Science. The most important is probably that Science deals exclusively with physical objects (living or not), while Philosophy has a wider area of concern. Also, in Science, questions can (often) be answered by performing an experiment. If everyone agrees that the experiment was designed and done well, the results are accepted as "the correct answer." It is not like that in Philosophy.

Who was Ren Descartes and what was he famous for?

René Descartes was a French philosopher, mathematician, and writer who spent most of his adult life in the Dutch Republic. He has been dubbed the 'Father of Modern Philosophy', and much subsequent Western philosophy is a response to his writings, which are studied closely to this day. In particular, his Meditations on First Philosophy continues to be a standard text at most university philosophy departments. Descartes' influence in mathematics is equally apparent; the Cartesian coordinate system - allowing algebraic equations to be expressed as geometric shapes, in a 2D coordinate system - was named after him. He is credited as the father of analytical geometry, the bridge between algebra and geometry, crucial to the discovery of infinitesimal calculus and analysis. Descartes was also one of the key figures in the Scientific Revolution.

How do philosophers try to bridge the gap between science and philosophy?

Of course, the very first work outlining the principles of scientific investigation was done by the English philosopher Francis Bacon in "Novum Organum", written in the sixteenth century. In more recent times, Bertrand Russell, also an English philosopher, wrote some very great books on the philosophical and logical bases of mathematics, such as "The Principles of Mathematics". Russell also discussed the relation between science and philosophy in "The Problems of Philosophy" (O.U.P., 1959; see, e.g., the chapter "The Limits of Philosophical Knowledge"), and in "Sceptical Essays" (Routledge Classics, 2004; see the chapters "Is Science Superstitious?" and "Can Men Be Rational?"). Even more technical is "Six Not-So-Easy Pieces" by Richard Feynman (look at "Relativity and the Philosophers", pp. 73-77).


What relationship is there between philosophy and other disciplines?

This is a pretty tough question. A philosopher helps people to understand life. Lets say that a pilot was having a hard understanding just what life was all about. Well he could go out to a cocktail party and ask a philosopher about it. The philosopher would tell him that life is like a jetliner. You have your up drafts and you have your down drafts. Some times your hit turbulence and you find a way to make it through it.
