What is Model-Based Reasoning and Similarity in the World about?
Scientific reasoning is commonly regarded as the core problem in science studies. This paper suggests that model-based reasoning is an important part of scientific creativity. I approach this problem from the standpoint of the origin of human thinking and genetic epistemology to understand representative practices of scientists. I also argue that objective similarity in the world is what makes model-based reasoning a powerful tool.
