H. Paul Grice on Subjunctive Conditionals - Dictionary of Arguments
Walker I 419 ff Subjunctive Conditionals/Counterfactual Conditionals/Walker: every material implication with a false antecedent is true, but usually we distinguish true and false unreal conditional clauses. A speaker makes an effort to express one certain subjunctive conditional clause and not another. Talking of a baby without a head is confusing in a way as it is not in a subjunctive conditional clause. >Counterfactual conditionals._____________Explanation of symbols: Roman numerals indicate the source, arabic numerals indicate the page number.
