Book Synopsis
An international team of biologists, philosophers, and historians of science explores the critically important process of replication in biological and biomedical research

Trade Review
“This book mulls and kneads the concept of replicability—moving us toward that point where such a concept is a smooth round pebble, comfortably fitting into our pocket. It is a model for treating the philosophically rich concepts used (and abused) in science."—Michael Paul Nelson, Ruth H. Spaniol Chair of Renewable Resources and Professor of Environmental Philosophy and Ethics, Oregon State University

“The central themes of this volume are replication, repeatability, and reproducibility, which individually and in concert form a cornerstone in all fields of science and all aspects of scientific enquiry. This volume has no antecedent.”—James L. Patton, University of California, Berkeley

"The book is a work of surprising breadth, incorporating philosophy and literature and a wide variety of scientific approaches. It provides insights about replication that would not emerge from any single discipline.”—John H. Porter, University of Virginia
