This paper was read to the Departments of Philosophy at the University of Wisconsin at Madison, at the University of South Carolina at Columbia, and at Reed College. I would like to thank the members of those departments, as well as Bas van Fraassen and Paul Thagard, for useful discussions. I wrote this paper while I was a Visiting Research Fellow in the Department of Philosophy at Princeton University. I would like to thank the members of that department for their friendliness and hospitality. During my stay at Princeton I was supported by a research fellowship awarded by the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada (456-88-0228, 457-89-0047) to whom I am very grateful.
