Not Enough There There Evidence, Reasons, and Language Independence
The philosophical significance of language dependence results (à la Goodman’s “grue” problem) has been seriously underestimated. In this article I argue that: The trouble caused by language dependence is not confined to formal analyses of evidential support; language dependence concerns apply to any story about how we should draw conclusions from evidence. This is because language dependence re...

متن کاملAre There Enough Injective Sets?
The axiom of choice ensures precisely that, in ZFC, every set is projective: that is, a projective object in the category of sets. In constructive ZF (CZF) the existence of enough projective sets has been discussed as an additional axiom taken from the interpretation of CZF in Martin-Löf’s intuitionistic type theory. On the other hand, every non–empty set is injective in classical ZF, which arg...
متن کاملProton radiation therapy for lung cancer: is there enough evidence?
Proton radiation for cancer offers the ability to conform the high-dose region of radiation therapy to the tumor while reducing the dose of radiation to adjacent normal tissues. In lung cancer, this equates to greater sparing of uninvolved lung, heart, esophagus, and spinal cord. Sparing these normal tissues permits the delivery of higher-radiation doses to the tumor. Studies that compare the d...
