(1992) Phenomenology of natural science, Dordrecht, Springer.
An introduction to "critical realism" as the reflective transcendence of the deadlock between scientific realism and antirealism. It is shown that by assuming this standpoint many of the puzzling features of the scientific endeavor are clarified (e.g., the belief in a common nature, the use of ordinary referential semantics and theoretical entities, etc.).
