Articulating the World: Conceptual Understanding and the Scientific Image
作為現代科學的指導哲學的自然主義既不贊成超自然的東西，也不尊重超自然的東西，否定任何對科學的運作和結論的哲學或宗教權威。然而，自然主義的長期悖論一直是科學知識本身的地位，乍看之下，這似乎是科學自然主義本身內超越的概念，因此也是不可能的。
在“闡明世界”中，約瑟夫·勞斯認為，當今自然主義倡導者面臨的最緊迫的挑戰就是：理解如何理解科學的自然界的科學概念，這是科學理解的。借鑒進化生物學和科學哲學的最新發展，勞斯為了應對這一挑戰而捍衛自然主義，修改了我們如何理解我們對世界的科學概念以及我們如何把自己置於其中。
Naturalism as a guiding philosophy for modern science both disavows any appeal to the supernatural or anything else transcendent to nature, and repudiates any philosophical or religious authority over the workings and conclusions of the sciences. A longstanding paradox within naturalism, however, has been the status of scientific knowledge itself, which seems, at first glance, to be something that transcends and is therefore impossible to conceptualize within scientific naturalism itself.
In Articulating the World, Joseph Rouse argues that the most pressing challenge for advocates of naturalism today is precisely this: to understand how to make sense of a scientific conception of nature as itself part of nature, scientifically understood. Drawing upon recent developments in evolutionary biology and the philosophy of science, Rouse defends naturalism in response to this challenge by revising both how we understand our scientific conception of the world and how we situate ourselves within it.
