At this point, we can mention a procedure, usually named after F.P. Ramsey (Ramsey, 1954; see also Sneed, 1971, Chaps, 3 and 4). We should also try to discuss only the gist of the procedure rather than all the technical details. Every time a theoretical term appears in a theory one should substitute a variable ''x'' for it, and the theory should be preceded by the expression "there exists a certain thing ''x'', such that."}} **Originally published as {{citation |author-mask=1 |first=Giuliano |last=Toraldo di Francia |title=L'Indagine del Mondo Fisico |publisher=Giulio Einaudi |year=1976 |isbn=9788806447502 |oclc=762196245 |series=Nuova biblioteca scientifica Einaudi |url=}} *{{Citation|authorlink=David Lewis (philosopher)|last=Lewis|first=David |year=1970|title=How to define theoretical terms |journal= Journal of Philosophy |volume=67 |issue=13 |pages=426–446 |doi=10.2307/2023861 |jstor=2023861}} *{{Citation|authorlink=Frank P.
