Abstract

Scientific discovery considered broadly as the way new scientific knowledge is generated, or still more broadly as scientific innovation (whether or not a question of true knowledge) has been conceptualized basically in two fashions. The first one, which we label the non-inferential, goes back at least to the notion of Ancient Greek Muses. The second approach, which we label inferential, goes back at least to Plato and Aristotle.
