The unknown as an engine of science
a summary
pp. 119-123
Abstrakt
A common theme of this essay has been how close major portions of our knowledge lie to the borders of the indefinite. Chapter 2 contained an analysis of the various manifestations of indefiniteness; and in Chap. 3, I have described the value of information as a means to eliminate them. In Chap. 4, 'soft" and "hard" methods of dealing with indefiniteness were discussed. In this chapter we give our conclusions.
