Alisa Bokulich and Peter Bokulich have edited a helpful new volume with the title Scientific Structuralism, as part of the Boston Studies in the Philosophy of Science. There are nine contributions, which approach structuralism in the philosophy of science from a variety of perspectives: ontological, epistemic, representational and even in connection with structural explanation.
