Synthese is a scholarly periodical edited by Otávio Bueno, Wiebe van der Hoek, and Gila Sher specializing in papers in epistemology, methodology, and philosophy of science. Published articles include specific treatment of methodological issues in science such as induction, probability, causation, statistics, symbolic logic, linguistics and ethics. The name Synthese (from the Dutch for ) finds its origin in the intentions of its founding editors: making explicit the supposed internal coherence between the different, highly specialised scientific disciplines.
"A special section on Knowledge, Rationality and Action offers a platform for researchers interested in a formal approach to the process comprising rational behavior, from gathering and representing information, through reasoning and decision making to acting."
As of June 2014, Google scholar ranked Synthese as the most influential journal in philosophy.
