Resumen
This paper attempts to promote a more widespread reception of recent work on the philosophy of experimental scientific activity. First, we comment on the origins and character of the predominant ;theoreticist tradition, offering critical remarks on its assumptions and "poverty". Then we analyze the function of instruments, proposing a coarse but hopefully useful typology of experimental activity. After analyzing the ;structure ;of experiment, drawing on work by Pickering and others, we discuss the ;dynamics ;of experimentation —the processes of data formation. This is obviously the most crucial and disputed issue, on which the specificity and reliability of scientific methods depends. ;
