Ways
A “way in
which a state can occur” or “way” is a state
that is abstracted from no other states. The
states male and female are abstracted from no other states; thus, they are examples
of “ways.” In contrast, the state male
OR female is abstracted from the
state male and the state female; thus, it is not an example of a
“way.”
