Notes

1 Roughly since the 1960s there has been a distinctive tendency among philosophers of science, such as Rudolf Carnap, Ernest Nagel and Howard Stein to argue for a kind of compatibilism between realism and instrumentalism. For a detailed discussion of this movement, see Psillos (Citationforthcoming).
