A classic instance of this is the assertion, to become a cornerstone of logical empiricism, that relativity theory had shown the untenability of any "philosophy of the synthetic a priori", despite the fact that early works on relativity theory by both Reichenbach and Carnap were written from within that broad perspective.
A cornerstone of Reichenbach's logical analysis of the theory of general relativity is the thesis of "the relativity of geometry", that an arbitrary geometry may be ascribed to spacetime (holding constant the underlying topology) if the laws of physics are correspondingly modified through the introduction of "universal forces".
This insight has led to the development of an alternative logical notion of question meanings, which forms the cornerstone of the framework of inquisitive semantics, to be discussed below.
This conclusion was a cornerstone of two important early movements in analytic philosophy, logical atomism and logical positivism.
In partial agreement with the tradition according to which PC is not the cornerstone or basic principle of logic, Łukasiewicz claims that its status is less secure than some other logical propositions, and that its function is principally to serve as a pragmatic norm.
Here's how the overview in the Standards document summarizes it: The ability to write logical arguments based on substantive claims, sound reasoning and relevant evidence is a cornerstone of the writing standards, with opinion writing — a basic form of argument — extending down into the earliest grades.
Moreover, because 5-FU is considered a cornerstone of therapy for gastric cancer, combining it with L-OHP is logical, and there is considerable evidence of preclinical synergy between the two agents (Raymond et al, 1998).
Automation of the measurement process may be considered as the next logical step towards unification of the Mod-MPI measurement process, and we hope towards its role as a cornerstone of functional fetal echocardiography.
It is Cornerstone Promotion, not Cornerstone Promotions.
