The book deals with how scientists, especially cognitive neuroscientists, explain phenomena. Against this background, it evaluates contemporary accounts of scientific explanation and supplements them with a new catalog of experiments. This marks the beginning of a new era in philosophy of science that takes experimental practice at face value.
