Abstract

This paper explores consequences of the perspectival nature of representation. In particular, it considers the relationships among multiple representational models of the same phenomenon. The epistemic value of integrative pluralism is defended by appeal to an example from experimentally based models protein structure and multi-sensory cognitive/neural integration.
