UNDER REVIEW (titles removed to maintain anonymity during review) V 2. History and Philosophy of Science: I show that widely received views about the philosophical foundations of ecology are misguided through analyses of landmark research studies. 1. Applied Philosophy of Science: I clarify the background theory of in what natural ‘ecological entities’ consist that is operative within ecology and assess the implications for operationalizing value claims and directives concerning such things that are expressed in the environmental advisory literature.
