Additional information

An earlier version of this paper was presented at a meeting of the Boston Colloquium for Philosophy of Science celebrating the Rudolf Carnap Centennial in October, 1991. I am indebted to the participants in this meeting — particularly to Robert Nozick, Willard van Orman Quine, Abner Shimony, and Howard Stein — for helpful comments and suggestions. I am also especially indebted to related work of, and discussion with, Burton Dreben, Alan Richardson, and Thomas Uebel.
