It is epistemology with scientific examples.&nbsp\; In this talk\, I wish to focus on another part of the philosophy of science. I want to begin to think more concretely and explicitly about inquiry in science. Zetetic philosophy of science is\, in the first instance\, a shift from a focus on knowledge to a focus on inquiry\, leaving aside whether scientific inquiry leads to knowledge. A key element here is a shift from focusing on the pairing of scientific realism and inference to the best explanation&mdash\;which I take to be parts of the epistemology of science&mdash\;to a focus on the pairing of zetetic scientific realism and abduction. This involves a shift from focusing on knowing that P to focusing on a different propositional attitude\, namely\, taking one&rsquo\;s self to have reasons to believe that P.</p>\n<p>This talk will be available online:</p>\n<p>Zoom: &nbsp\;<a  href="https://pitt.zoom.us/j/97559112250"  data-cke-saved-href="https://pitt.zoom.us/j/97559112250">https://pitt.zoom.us/j/97559112250</a></p>\n<p><br>YouTube:&nbsp\;<a  href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCrRp47ZMXD7NXO3a9Gyh2sg"  data-cke-saved-href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCrRp47ZMXD7NXO3a9Gyh2sg">https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCrRp47ZMXD7NXO3a9Gyh2sg</a></p>\n\n
