On the Difference Between Definition and Explanation

Topic:Communication

Posted on:Aug 17 2015

Captured by:Austin M

Method:Dictation

A definition is more than an explanation. An explanation is descriptive, but a definition is essential. Definitions are the working units of explanations. Never be deceived by a definition that is merely an explanation.
