Inter-theory relations in physics: case studies from quantum mechanics and quantum field theory
<p>I defend three general claims concerning inter-theoretic reduction in physics. First, the popular notion that a superseded theory in physics is generally a simple limit of the theory that supersedes it paints an oversimplified picture of reductive relations in physics. Second, where reducti...
