About this title

Review

..."designed primarily to communicate Popper's philosophical ideas to a wider audience of interested scientists and educated lay persons. . .."
-"Teaching Philosophy, December 1995
"Whether he is discussing physics, sociology, history, or political theory, Popper's basic concern is to develop a model of scientific rationality and to show how it is not only a theory of knowledge but also an attitude towards human life, human morals, and democracy."
-"Teaching Philosophy, December 1994
..."this volume would be very useful in introductory courses in the philosophy of science and science studies."
-"Teaching Philosophy, December 1995 ...an inportant collection that no one interested in Popper's philosophy can afford to

From the Back Cover

This is a collection of some of Sir Karl Popper's most important material on the subject of science and rationality. In place of intellectual fashions, Popper offers his own critical rationalism--a view that he regards both as a theory of knowledge and as an attitude towards human life, human morals and democracy.
