The second change that we will make is to focus on defining a model rather than stating an axiomatic theory. 6 The argument for this change is as follows: As discussed previously, our main goal in formalizing ...
Likewise, if we were studying the process of learning physical theories, we would have to expect that sometimes the theories being considered are entirely off base. ...
