A very good overview of scientific realism. I am not aware of any other book which would so clearly present the different branches of realism and the associated arguments. The author also expounds his own pet theory, 'truthlikeness', with fancy formulas. That part didn't convince me, but I learned a lot from this book on a more general level.
