• How do models give us knowledge? The case of Carnot’s ideal heat engine (2011, background): “Thus representation becomes less a feature of models and their target systems than an accomplishment of representation users (Suárez 2004, 2010, Giere 2004, 2010, Bailer-Jones 2003, 2009).”
• Scientific representation: against similarity and isomorphism (2003, background): “Science often succeeds at constructing representations of phenomena, but it rarely succeeds at constructing completely accurate ones (see, e.g. Bailer-Jones, 2003).”
