Nagel on reduction11For discussions, in some cases over many decades, thanks are due to Jordi Cat, Alan Love, Ken Schaffner, Abner Shimony, John Stachel, and Bill Wimsatt. Comments by participants of the Formal Epistemology and the Legacy of Logical Empiricism Workshop (University of Texas, Austin, Spring 2013) and the audience at a Philosophy Department seminar at the University of Sydney were also useful. For comments on previous drafts, thanks are due to Justin Garson and Thomas Uebel.
