Abstract
In Chap. 1 we demonstrated the ample range of the meaning of the term model. In spite of the diversity of those examples they all share some characteristics; for instance, they are all linked to a modelling process. In some of those examples the models are prototypes and subject to this process, in others this mapping produces the model as a simulacrum.
