Mathematics and Scientific Representation - Oxford Studies in Philosophy of Science
Pincock, Christopher (Associate Professor of Philosophy, Associate Professor of Philosophy, University of Missouri, Columbia, MO)

Pincock tackles this perennial question by asking how mathematics contributes to the success of our best scientific representations.
