Downloadable materials
In this sections you can find various downloadable materials useful for undertanding Axiomatic Functionalism. Currently,
there is not a lot of stuff here but more is hoped to be added. Additional resources can be found in the sections

A comparison of Standard Postulates and Extended Postulates [.xls] : This spreadsheet provides a comparison between
the postulates for Extended Axiomatic Functionalism (EAF), and those for Standard Axiomatic Functionalism (SAF);
prepared by James Dickins
The spreadsheet columns contain the following information:
Column A : 'Line number' gives the linear order of the rows.
Column B : 'Under EAF Axiom' identifies which axiom each definition falls under in EAF.
Column C : 'EAF Tag' identifies the number of the definition or axiom in EAF.
Column D : 'EAF entity' is the notion (or entity) being defined in EAF.
Column E : 'EAF definition' gives the formal definition of the notion (entity) in Column D.
Column F : 'EAF comment' provides additional comments on the notion (entity) in Column D.
Column G : 'Under SAF Axiom' identifies which axiom each definition falls under in SAF.
Column H : 'SAF Tag' identifies the number of the definition or axiom in SAF.
Column I : 'SAF entity' is the notion (or entity) being defined in SAF.
Column J : ‘SAF definition' gives the formal definition of the notion (entity) in Column I.
Column K : 'SAF comment' provides additional comments on the notion (entity) in Column I.
