I 158
Reduction/Schiffer: ... no more should be required than that theoretical terms are physically realized.
>Theoretical terms, >Theoretical entities.
But realization does not imply reducibility.
Schiffer pro Brentano: in favour of irreducibility of the intentional vocabulary.
>Intentionality, >Intentions.
I 159

>Patricia Churchland, >Paul Churchland.
