Leibniz and the Puzzle of Incompossibility:… : DASH Story 2013-08-07
I was writing a geological paper in which I wanted to point out that Cuvier's dictum of correlation of parts in an animal body is only a special case of Leibnitz' idea of compossibilty. I just wanted to know what the most recent thinking on compossibilty as a part of Leibnitz' thinking was. I went to the Google and encountered thes article and because of the DASH service I was able to read it immediately.
