Abstract
- In particular, I Duhem and Holism i offers a surprisingly thin treatment of Duhem's actual arguments for holism. Those interested in a brief introduction to either Duhem's overall philosophy or his views on "good sense" will find I Duhem and Holism i to be an engaging and worthwhile read. I Duhem and Holism i is admirably clear and engaging in its discussion of both Duhem's philosophical views and some of the many responses that they have engendered over the last century.
