Tuomela on deductive explanation
Journal of Philosophical Logic 5 (4):511 - 525 (1976)
Abstract
Almost every formal model of explanation thus far proposed has been demonstrated to be faulty. In this paper, a new model, proposed by Raimo Tuomela, is also demonstrated to be faulty. In particular, one condition of the model is shown to be too restrictive, and another condition of the model is shown to be too permissiveMy notes
