Proposals for formalising evidence evaluation fascinate n disturb me. It's notable that a certain type of study strongly predicts policy success. But the key lesson from recent #philsci that evidence is only strong when you can *combine* different types of it into a robust theory of change.

We explore and discuss the prospects of evidential pluralism in public health. We consider the difficulties for obtaining evidence of mechanisms and assess the role of ABM as mechanistic studies.
