Norm conflicts and epistemic modals
Statements containing epistemic modals (e.g., "by spring 2023 most European countries may have the Covid-19 pandemic under control") are common expressions of epistemic uncertainty. In this paper, previous published findings (Knobe & Yalcin, 2014; Khoo & Phillips, 2018) on the opposition between Contextualism and Relativism for epistemic modals are re-examined. It is found that these findings contain a substantial degree of individual variation. …
McGee 's Counterexample to the Ramsey Test
Vann McGee has proposed a counterexample to the Ramsey Test. In the counterexample, a seemingly trustworthy source has testified that p and that if not‐ p , then q . If one subsequently learns not‐ p (and so learns that the source is wrong about p ), then one has reason to doubt the trustworthiness of the source (perhaps even the identity of the source) and so, the argument goes, one has reason to doubt the conditional asserted by the source. Sin…

Changing the Modal Context
Conditionals that contain a modality in the consequent give rise to a particular semantic phenomenon whereby the antecedent of the conditional blocks possibilities when interpreting the modality in the consequent. This explains the puzzling logical behaviour of constructions like “If you don't buy a lottery ticket, you can't win”, “If you eat that poison, it is unlikely that you will survive the day” and “If you kill Harry, you ought to kill him …

Multinational Enterprise in Historical Perspective
This book marks a major step forward in our understanding of the origins and expansion of multinational enterprise. An introductory appraisal of the concept of 'the multinational' is followed in Part I by an examination of the growth of multinational enterprise, dealing both with industrial and financial concerns and with the market linkages between cartels and multinationals. Part II considers government and multinationals and comprises, firstly…

Coronary-Prone Behavior Pattern and Cardiovascular Response in Persons with and without Coronary Heart Disease
The purpose of this investigation was to examine the psychophysiologic responses of Type A and Type B individuals, among persons with and without coronary heart disease (CHD). Subjects were 58 adult male volunteers; 24 had a history of myocardial infarction or clinically diagnosed angina pectoris (CHD) and 34 had been designated free of coronary disease following recent cardiologic examination (non-CHD). All subjects had normotensive resting bloo…
