... For this reason, models for one language can be viewed as models for the other. We base S on + instead of ∗ because the resulting deductive system is cleaner—it contains no contraction rule1 . This is perhaps due to the fact that + can be viewed as a more primitive operation than ∗ . A test is eithe ...

Recall the standard definition of an interpretation within the framework of predicate logic: an interpretation of Σ consists of a universe U and a function that takes each monadic predicate p ∈ Σ to a subset of U . Now observe that a formal context hU, Σ, i uniquely corresponds to an interpretation ...

Inquiry
An inquiry is any process that has the aim of augmenting knowledge, resolving doubt, or solving a problem. A theory of inquiry is an account of the various types of inquiry and a treatment of the ways that each type of inquiry achieves its aim.
