Abstract
"From Scientific Method to Methodological Naturalism: The Evolution of an Idea" (Harry L. Poe and Chelsea R. Mytyk, PSCF 59 [2007]: 213-8) presents a discussion of methodological naturalism as a very recent development in thought about science and scientific method. The discussion is framed primarily in philosophical terms, and the general tenor of the authors' argument is that "methodological naturalism" is an unnecessary addition to the general principles of scientific method and could just as well be dispensed with.
