[INES Announce] book publication: Prediction

[Johannes Lenhard]

Dear INES colleagues,

I am pleased to announce a new book:

Ann Johnson (1965-2016) and Johannes Lenhard: "Cultures of Prediction. 
How Science and Engineering Evolve with Mathematical Tools." MIT, 2024.

The book came out last year already. I am a terrible announcer. The book 
is available in softcover and also open access, see

    “This pioneering and broad-ranging analysis of the real practices of
    prediction in modern science and engineering goes far beyond
    philosophers' usual notion of simple logical deduction from
    theories. Johannes Lenhard has wonderfully completed his
    collaboration with the late Ann Johnson.”

Hasok Chang, Hans Rausing Professor at the Department of History and 
Philosophy of Science, University of Cambridge

    “This comprehensive and important study presents much-needed and
    original work in engineering studies and provides a longue durée
    perspective.”

Adelheid Voskuhl, Associate Professor, University of Pennsylvania

Kind regards,

Johannes (Professor, RPTU, Kaiserslautern, Germany)
