Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
This paper considers VM's largely unrecognised contribution to a debate which spanned philosophy and medicine concerning the demands an adequate explanation must meet in the operation of a craft. VM's special contribution consists in indicating a means to an understanding of a mutual interdependence of theory and practice which acknowledges the strengths of a theoretical explanatory framework, but also recognises that practical success should inform that theory. |
