Limits of a deductive construal of the function of scientific theories

Yemima Ben-Menachem

pp. 17-22

Abstract

In the course of preparing this comment I have come to realize that a large proportion of my philosophy-of-science classes, both as a student and as a teacher, have been devoted, in one way or another, to the discussion of Professor Hempel's numerous papers. Contemporary philosophy of science is, to some extent, a comment on Hempel's work.
