as far as to claim that nonmonotonic entailment is characterised by nothing but nonmonotonicity.

“Ontological Foundations of Conceptual Modeling ” by

by Boris Wyssusek—a Critical, Kalle Lyytinen
"... I read with great interest and excitement Boris Wyssusek’s critical review of the Bunge-Wand-Weber (BWW) modeling ontology and its philosophical foundations.

"... Most ecologists and engaged environmentalists justifi-ably regard invasive, non-native species as a leading threat to conservation values. In the US, for example, they are reportedly the second greatest threat to native species, outranked only by habitat loss (Wilcove et al. 1998). Increasingly larg ..."
