  skos:definition "The so-called Duhem-Quine thesis emerged in the context of Willard Van Orman Quine's challenge to logical positivism/empiricism, first published in his famous “Two Dogmas of Empiricism” in 1951. This challenging thesis is called the Duhem-Quine thesis, not the Quine thesis, because Quine in footnotes attributes it to Pierre Duhem (1861–1916), a French theorist of thermodynamics with an in-depth knowledge of the history of science, who popularized the idea behind the thesis in the memorable phrase “saving the phenomena;” that is, any body of observable facts can be sustained by suitably adjusted rival explanations against possible counterexamples.
