18222 | Beneath every extrinsic explanation there is an intrinsic explanation [Field,H] |
Full Idea: A plausible methodological principle is that underlying every good extrinsic explanation there is an intrinsic explanation. | |
From: Hartry Field (Science without Numbers [1980], 5) | |
A reaction: I'm thinking that Hartry Field is an Aristotelian essentialist, though I bet he would never admit it. |
