‘We
remain focused upon its
real, experienced, empirical -- ‘endo-empirical’
as well as ‘exo-empirical’ -- [psychohistorical-]material results.”
“However, observing, coming to know, these empirical consequences --
these benefits
-- can occur apart
from, e.g., prior to, achieving a full, scientific understanding
of their causation
