The Theory of Classification Part 14: Modification and Objects like Myself

Abstract

In part 14 of his series on classification theory, Simons considers the whole area of environment modelling and the creation of modified objects. Eventually, this leads to an extension to the theory to handle constructor-methods, through the use of which an object can create another object “like itself”.
