Scientific philosophy is philosophy informed by science, which uses exact tools such as logic and mathematics, and provides a scientific activity of a framework where to settle the most general questions about nature, the language we use to describe it, and knowledge We get from her. Many theories of scientific philosophy can be contrasted and evaluated using scientific evidence. In this paper I focus on scientific philosophy and the analysis of the limits of science.
