I am told on Higher Authority that I cannot think about emergence any more
before I have read the following reference:
Cartwright, Nancy D. "Do the Laws of Physics State the Facts?" Pacific
Philosophy Quarterly, 61, 1980 (pp 64-75). Reprinted in The Philosophy of
Science Reader, 1980, Yuri V. Balashov (ed). Routledge Press. Reprinted in
Philosophy of Science: The Central Issues, 1998, Martin Curd and J.A. Cover
(ed). Norton & Company Inc. Also in Readings on Laws of Nature, 2004

Does anybody have a copy? Ingenta has it, but they want big bucks for it.
