Jeff,
Would you please, for my information--I really don't know, give me a
definition of scientific relativism and perhaps compare that to the concept
of cultural relativism used in cultural anthropology? Also, is that a term
that Hawkings uses--if so, did he borrow from somewhere/someone else? Is
Gould a scientific relativist?
May want to expand my reading list.
Thanks,
Carey
