In this paper, I develop Mauricio Suárez’s distinction between denotation, epistemic representation, and faithful epistemic representation. I then outline an interpretational account of epistemic repr...
Is There an Independent Principle of Causality in Physics? A Comment on Matthias Frisch, “Causal Reasoning in Physics.”

Matthias Frisch has argued that the requirement that electromagnetic dispersion processes are causal adds empirical content not found in electrodynamic theory. I urge that this attempt to reconstitute...

A recent proposal of Norton (2003) to show that a simple Newtonian system can exhibit stochastic acausal behavior by giving rise to spontaneous movements of a mass on the dome of a certain shape is ex...

In this paper I examine several neo-Russellian arguments for the claim that there is no room for an asymmetric notion of cause in mature physical theories. I argue that these arguments are unsuccessf...

2008/4/10
Anthropic arguments in multiverse cosmology and string theory rely on the weak anthropic principle (WAP). We show that the principle, though ultimately a tautology, is nevertheless ambiguous. It can b...
Anthropic Reasoning and the Contemporary Design Argument in Astrophysics: A Reply to Robert Klee

font style='font-size:12px;'>
2008/4/10
In a recent study of astrophysical “fine-tunings” (or “coincidences”), Robert Klee critically assesses the support that such astrophysical evidence might be thought to lend to the design argument (i.e...
The Problem of Transition Across Levels in the van Hiele Theory of Geometric Reasoning
Geometric Reasoning Transition Across Levels
font style='font-size:12px;'>
2008/4/8
The most outstanding characteristic of the van Hiele theory of geometric reasoning (Hoffer, 1983; Perdikaris, 1994; van Hiele,1986) is perhaps the relationship between the levels of reasoning, a hiera...

Often, in the original scientific writings, a double negated statement (DNS) is not equivalent to his corresponding positive one; that means the inferring law ¬¬A ® A does not apply. Recen...
