The following remarks are intended to show that some of Freudenthal's recent criticisms of Bunge'sFoundations of Physics are wide of the mark. Freudenthal sets his criticisms of detail in a framework of some general considerations of the role played by axiomatic theories in the foundations of physics.

These topics are (...) considered below. (shrink)
