Note

Kalderon: Tarski believed in Physicalism: 1) All facts are either physical or mathematical, 2) All scientific (descriptive) claims are reducible to physical and mathematical claims, 3) All scientific (descriptive) concepts can be defined in terms of physical and mathematical concepts. ... A scientifically adequate language is semantically open, i.e., an object language in his semantic theory of truth.
