The Question of Logic

Mind, 2023
Abstract Under the influence of Quine’s famous manifesto, many philosophers have thought that logical theories are scientific theories that can be ‘adopted’ and tested as scientific theories. Here we argue that this idea is untenable. We discuss it with special reference to Putnam’s proposal to ‘adopt’ a particular non-classical logic to

PSA: Proceedings of the Biennial Meeting of the Philosophy of Science Association, 1982
The experimental procedures of physics assign values to physical quantities; we measure the temperature of a gas, the luminosity of a light source, the momentum of a particle. Any pair, q = (A, Δ), with A an observable quantity, Δ a Borel subset of the reals, we will call an experimental question, though some prefer the term proposition.
