Review:

"Fact and Methodis written in a distinctive style. Where the positivists aspired to the terseness of scientific prose, Miller is discursive, digressive and generous with long illustrations. He has a wide-ranging knowledge of both the natural and the social sciences ... his arguments always relate to real scientific theories, rather than oversimplified philosophical abstractions."--The Times Literary Supplement
