Abstract
The objects of scientific investigation are quantitative and can be measured from the outside. Like the things that I touch and see, they lie before me in space. Many of the stars are seen at night by our unaided vision, and more through telescopes. Other entities may be reached through the microscope, and those too small for this must be conceived as lying before us in such a way that they might be seen if our eyes were possessed of sufficient power. Science can tell us nothing of the existence of these objects from the inside nor even if they have such an inside. It tells us only of their surface patterns and the sequence of these patterns in time.
