Status of Models
What is the status of models in the mosaic?
Is it possible for a model to provide a representation of any given theory? Do scientific models vary from scientific theories, and if so, what is there place in the mosaic? For example, the Copernican Model is a representation of the ideas expressed by Copernicanism; does the model vary from the theory, and how does it factor into different scientific mosaics?
