The bundled references are modern, reusable reconstructions grounded in the cited works. Do not present their exact workflows as historical claims that the named figures stated verbatim. ## Select the reasoning references Read every reference needed for the source shape. Combine references when the question crosses rows. | Reference | Use it for | |---|---| | [Cochrane](references/cochrane.md) | systematic search, study appraisal, heterogeneity, publication bias | | [Toulmin](references/toulmin.md) | claim, evidence, warrant, qualifier and rebuttal structure | | [Feynman](references/feynman.md) | rederivation, plain-language integrity checks, cargo-cult detection | | [Darwin](references/darwin.md) | long-horizon accumulation, difficulty books, strongest contrary case first | | [Laplace](references/laplace.md) | explicit prior-to-posterior belief updates and sensitivity analysis | | [Gadamer](references/gadamer.md) | interpretation, pre-understanding and charitable reading | | [Strauss](references/strauss.md) | open and focused coding of qualitative material | | [Geertz](references/geertz.md) | behavior in context, emic/etic separation and thick description | ## Workflow 1. **Bind the question.** State the population or context, intervention or phenomenon, comparison, outcome
