Abstract

My task in this paper is to elaborate the tenets of what Randall calls the PC/I "school" in his most useful paper. I see much merit in the PC/I paradigm, but in my opinion it is not free from a problem or two. My approach will be to set forth the principal arguments for the paradigm, relying primarily on the work of practicing members of the school.
