Description: | In their pursuit oflarger truths,often encapsulated in short aphorisms,even the greatest philosophers can sometimes be guilty ofmaking approximations.Thus, when Ludwig Wittgenstein finished his major work on linguistic philosophy, Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus with the famous phrase ‘whereofwe cannot speak,thereofwe must be silent’[1],he failed to take account ofa situation that occurs quite frequently in science,as newly uncovered facts about the world call for new concepts to describe them.In science,when we find something for which © Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2004 Structure and Bonding,Vol. 106 (2004): 7–18 DOI 10.1007/b11302HAPTER 1 there is no existing vocabulary, it is certainly not customary to remain silent. What is normally done is to invent a new word or phrase. |
