Mill propose the covering law model. Mill defines science main concern with the discovery go regular pattern in experience(laws) and a explanation of a fact is one that fixes its relationship to the law(Halverson). Mill think that science discoveries do not have to be grounded in logic, because logic is in the universe to which we experience.Mill's work later shaped logical positivism and still remains the standard account of scientific discovery. -
Liberty
Mill defends how the freedom of speech and thought leads to greater truth discoveries. How false claims or beliefs can still be conducive to finding the truth and opens debate, which leads to a greater understanding(Macleod). -
