Quote by Putnam, Hilary
"Science is successful because it develops concepts that allow us to predict and control phenomena, not because it mirrors reality."
"Science is successful because it develops concepts that allow us to predict and control phenomena, not because it mirrors reality."
"The world is not intrinsically divided into minds and physical objects."
"Realism is not the view that the world exists independently of all schemes of description."
"Truth is not correspondence to reality."
"We can have a rational picture of the world only if we are willing to question our intuitions."
