Featuring peer-reviewed contributions from noted experts in their fields of research  Reproducibility: Principles  Problems  Practices  and Prospects presents state-of-the-art approaches to reproducibility  the gold standard of sound science  from multi- and interdisciplinary perspectives. Including comprehensive coverage for implementing and reflecting the norm of reproducibility in various pertinent fields of research  the book focuses on how the reproducibility of results is applied  how it may be limited  and how such limitations can be understood or even controlled in the natural sciences  computational sciences  life sciences  social sciences  and studies of science and technology.  The book presents many chapters devoted to a variety of methods and techniques  as well as their epistemic and ontological underpinnings  which have been developed to safeguard reproducible research and curtail deficits and failures. The book also investigates the political  historical  and social practices that underlie reproducible research in contemporary science studies  including the difficulties of good scientific practice and the ethos of reproducibility in modern innovation societies.  Reproducibility: Principles  Problems  Practices  and Prospects is a guide for researchers who are interested in the general and overarching questions behind the concept of reproducibility; for active scientists who are confronted with practical reproducibility problems in their everyday work; and for economic stakeholders and political decision makers who need to better understand the challenges of reproducibility. In addition  the book is a useful in-depth primer for undergraduate and graduate-level courses in scientific methodology and basic issues in the philosophy and sociology of science from a modern perspective.  A comprehensive  insightful treatment of the reproducibility challenges facing science today and of ways in which the scientific community can address them.
