Abstract

First of all, I agree with much of what F.A. Muller (Synthese, this issue, 2009) says in his article ‘Reflections on the revolution in Stanford’. And where I differ, the difference is on the decision of what direction of further development represents the best choice for the philosophy of science. I list my remarks as a sequence of topics.
