Chamberlin Publication History Confirmed

URL: Not captured — experimental run

Extract¶

Chamberlin's publication history is confirmed by multiple independent sources:

1890: "The Method of Multiple Working Hypotheses," Science (old series), 15:92-96. Read before the Society of Western Naturalists, October 25, 1889.
1897: Revised and abbreviated version in Journal of Geology, 5:837-848. Chamberlin noted the revision was "freely altered and abbreviated so as to limit it to aspects related to geological study."
1965: Reprinted in Science, 148:754-759.

The PubMed record for the 1965 reprint explicitly includes in its subtitle: "With this method the dangers of parental affection for a favorite theory can be circumvented."

Relevance to Hypotheses¶

Hypothesis	Relationship	Strength
H1	Supports	Strong — confirms sub-claim C006a (publication dates)
H2	Neutral	Publication history is unambiguous
H3	Contradicts	Strong — dates and publication venues confirmed

Context¶

The publication history is uncontested across all sources. The 1890/1897 dates in the claim are confirmed. The 1965 reprint (not mentioned in the claim) is also confirmed. Platt (1964) cites the 1897 version specifically.

None.
