Philosophy in Comparison to Science (with Linguistic Epistemology)

 To contrast philosophy vs science, consider Husserl's 'Logical Investigations'; philosophy as rigorous science. Frege, Bretano, Whitehead and Russell, the 'Principia Mathematica and the Tractatus Logico Philosophicus'. Aristotle's classification system was rather useful in the day as well as his expression of logic. Leibniz also invented mathematical logic although he didn't publish it and speculated usefully about monads...and that 'atomistic idea of one dimensional bits of pure spirit equivalent to strings really is somewhat apropos for the contemporary description of quanta or energy units at the smallest scale- at least it isn't obviously refuted.

I believe that science is about physics and philosophy somewhat more concerning greater and speculative physics (aka metaphysics). Logic is a field of philosophy too. One field that is active is that of ethics and why it is that people can't get along in a practical way (such as in the border dispute in Ukraine). The parameters are a little too large for simple science experimentation to solve.

There are scientific investigations of the brain that are great of course, and also sociological observations of the behavior of individuals an groups yet packing together different fields and data, ideas and considering possibilities for ad hoc remedies to political choices that result in very harmful social outcomes is more the realm of philosophical activity I.M.O.

I enjoyed reading the Philosophy of Logic. Examples of good works are W.V.O. Quine's 'Word and Object', Strawson's 'Individuals' and Kripke's 'Naming and Necessity'. Wittgenstein's 'Blue and Brown Books' are also about language, and nominalism in a sense- quite philosophic. Also known as linguistic philosophy, the philosophy of logic is a primary tool for contemporary epistemology. When contrasting realism and nominalism having an idea of the values of words and what sort of lexicon they arise in is useful. One might consider The Critique of Pure Reason in light of the philosophy of logic and an emergent field that I would name 'Linguistic Epistemology'. That primarily would be simply the philosophy of logic.
