AGAINST METHOD - PAUL K FEYERABEND KARTONIERT (TB)

Paul Feyerabend's globally acclaimed work  which sparked and continues to stimulate fierce
debate  examines the deficiencies of many widespread ideas about scientific progress and the
nature of knowledge. Feyerabend argues that scientific advances can only be understood in a
historical context. He looks at the way the philosophy of science has consistently
overemphasized practice over method  and considers the possibility that anarchism could replace
rationalism in the theory of knowledge.This updated edition of the classic text includes a new
introduction by Ian Hacking  one of the most important contemporary philosophers of science.
Hacking reflects on both Feyerabend's life and personality as well as the broader significance
of the book for current discussions.
