Externalism

Joseph Agassi

pp. 55-67

It is a theory of any field which tells us what is its internallogic and hence, what is its internal history. What is not internal is, then, external. E.g., military incentive is external to both science and art but not to logistics. Whereas purely external study of science, such as the studies of citations of one author by others, is plainly silly, the purely internal study of science is possible but incomplete.
