Theories of Truth
"...equating truth with explanatory power conflicts with our intuitions about which rules of interference are truth-preserving: if it is true that p & q, it is true that p, but this rule no longer holds when 'is true means 'has explanatory power'. Hence, equating truth with some other value(s) threatens to make a mockery of logic." (Kirkham, 52)
