9. The philosophy of total evidence and its relevance for phylogenetic inference
O teste de congruência baseado em evidência total, como é usado na sistemática, foi atrelado à filosofia Popperiana de ciência, mas aqui se demonstra estar relacionado à teoria coerentista da verdade na metafísica e a teoria do coerentismo na epistemologia.
