Queen Physics: How Much of the Globe is Painted Red?

This paper has two authors. We begin with Nancy Cartwright’s account of the hodgepodge of nature. Much of this account is shared with John Polkinghorne, which is why we have the honor of contributing to this volume in tribute to him. In the next section Eric Martin explains some of Polkinghorne’s ideas on order in nature and shows how Cartwright’s ideas sometimes mesh with these but sometimes do not.
