Extending Ourselves: Computational Science, Empiricism, and Scientific Method

（Written by Paul William Humphreys, translated by Su Zhan, proofread by Dong Chunyu and Sun weimin）

计算机模拟、蒙特·卡罗方法和基于主体的建模等计算方法已经成为许多科学领域的主流技术。延长的万物之尺包含了对这些新方法的第一个系统的哲学描述，这种扩展形成了一种新的经验主义的基础，它比旧的以人类为中心的经验主义更适合科学的需要。

Computational methods such as computer simulations, Monte Carlo methods, and agent-based modeling have become the dominant techniques in many areas of science. Extending Ourselves offers the first systematic philosophical account of these new methods, and this expansion forms the basis for a new kind of empiricism, better suited to the needs of science than the older anthropocentric empiricism.
