Defense of a Non-Conventionalist Interpretation of Classical Mechanics,o grasp the true nature of a universe apprehended very imperfectly via the senses; they are . literal truths (though very likely all false in fact); the correlative epistemology is naturalistic, being informed by, and in turn informing, the science of human beings. In that paper I described an alter

By a metatheory of scientific theories, I mean a general theory concerning the structure, functioning, and interpretation of scientific theories. The construction of such metatheories has been one of the primary concerns of philosophers

,Comments On ‘Ontic Commitments Of Quantum Mechanics’,the attempt to tell physicists what they are doing (or should be doing) — for example, by constructing elaborate formalisms for their theories; but rather to try to observe and conceptualize what they actually do.

Quantum Logic and Classical Logic: Their Respective Roles,lassical ‘quantum logic’ (an orthocomplemented non-distributive lattice) on the level of factual sentences. It is shown that this claim is confused by the erroneous assumption that simple theoretical statements about the Hilbert space state vector of a system are logically equivalent to simple empir

Two Types of Continuity, was named by Poincaré — not very appropriately, as we shall see — . continuity (.). While the obvious contrast between these two different types of continuity is fairly well known, its deeper philosophical significance is rarely analyzed. This lack of interest in it is not accidental; it is due to
