The purpose of this essay is to defend the deductive-nomological model of explanation against a number of criticisms that have been made of it. It has traditionally been thought that scientific explanations were causal and that scientific explanations involved deduction from laws. In recent years, however, this three-fold identity has been challenged: there are, it is argued, causal explanations that are not scientific, scientific explanations...

lbe rescue of immature embryos from wide crosses (Il) was one of the first applications of culture techniques in the cereals. Success with embryo culture has improved with increased knowledge of embryo development, differen tia tion pa ttems and nu tri tional and hormonal require men ts . lfowever, success in these procedures is still sporadic and often genotype or species specific. A review of embryo development is lacKing in recent literatur...

The theory of nonlinear oscillations and stability of motion is a fundamental part of the study of numerous real world phenomena. These phenomena, particularly auto-oscillations of the first and second kind, capture, para­ metric, subharmonic and ultraharmonic resonance, asymptotic behavior and orbits' stability, constitute the core of problems treated in "Nonlinear Mechanics", and their study is connected with the names of H. Poincare, A. M. ...

x the early stages, to the Programme Committee for their assistance in formulating the programme and for their continued support throughout, to the session chairmen and scientific secretaries, who ensured the smooth running of the proceedings, and to all the delegates, who, by their full participation and lively discussions have demonstrated the continuing vigour of this field of physics. We also gratefully acknowledge the sponsorship of the I...

by D. M. Armstrong In the history of the discussion of the problem of universals, G. F. Stout has an honoured, and special. place. For the Nominalist, meaning by that term a philosopher who holds that existence of repeatables - kinds, sorts, type- and the indubitable existence of general terms, is a problem. The Nominalist's opponent, the Realist, escapes the Nominalist's difficulty by postulating universals. He then faces difficulties of his ...

The prevailing view of scientific popularization, both within academic circles and beyond, affirms that its objectives and procedures are unrelated to tasks of cognitive development and that its pertinence is by and large restricted to the lay public. Consistent with this view, popularization is frequently portrayed as a logical and hence inescapable consequence of a culture dominated by science-based products and procedures and by a scientist...

Four years have elapsed since the preparation of the original Russian version of this book. This is a long time when dealing with such actively expanding fields of oceanography as research into small-scale structures and the investigation of hydro physical processes. Over this period new quick-response devices have been developed and successfully used for measurements taken in various ocean areas. Improvements in high-frequency meters used to ...

This volume is in Reidel's Law and Philosophy Library which offers the best obtainable original work on legal philosophy drawn from both the Anglo-American and European traditions. ... The book provides a salutary reminder that legal philosophy is not a self-contained discipline sitting quietly by itself in the corner but one very much involved with many other disciplines...'

Where do you begin to look for a recent, authoritative article on the diagnosis or management of a particular malignancy? The few general on­ cology textbooks are generally out of date. Single papers in specialized jour­ nals are informative but seldom comprehensive, these are more often pre­ liminary reports on a very limited number of patients. Certain general jour­ nals frequently publish good indepth reviews of cancer topics, and published...
