The purpose is not to try to explore how logical methods can be made to apply to actual human behaviour in everyday scientific reasoning and social contexts in science, but rather to (i) see how gametheoret...
متن کاملWhy Machine-Information Metaphors are Bad for Science and Science Education
Genes are often described by biologists using metaphors derived from computational science: they are thought of as carriers of information, as being the equivalent of ‘‘blueprints’’ for the construction of organisms. Likewise, cells are often characterized as ‘‘factories’’ and organisms themselves become analogous tomachines. Accordingly,when the human genome project was initially announced, th...

We believe that this is a rich and potentially useful way of describing complex systems of people and technologies that are involved in developing, using, sustaining and archiving software. Further, an appropriate metaphor can be a useful analyti...
