Philosophy Of Science Without History Of Science Is Empty; History Of Science Without Philosophy Of Science Is Blind.

Research Programmes, Besides Their Negative Heuristic, Are Also Characterized By Their Positive Heuristic.

That Sometimes Clear ... And Sometimes Vague Stuff ... Which Is ... Mathematics.
