6 Classical and non-classical science
... In classical science it was assumed that the laws of nature were made of the same stuff as their formal expressions«246». There was no need to distinguish explicitly between the two. Whenever a theory proved to be incorrect, it could be dismissed; but when it proved to be correct, the description wa ...
