Abstract

Sabina Leonelli's book, "Philosophy of Open Science," provides an insightful examination of the relationship between the ideals of the open science movement and the realities of scientific practice. Leonelli argues that the prevailing emphasis on sharing research outcomes in open science initiatives may overlook the diversity and complexity of the scientific inquiry process. She advocates for a shift towards a more process-oriented focus that prioritizes holistic collaboration and inclusivity. The book explores concrete examples and theoretical foundations to support Leonelli's argument and highlights the potential ethical and epistemological challenges of object-oriented approaches in open science. While the book may be more relevant to policymakers and those in positions of influence, it serves as a valuable resource for researchers looking to critically assess the assumptions and implications of open science projects.
