DETAILS: near fine dust-jacket, fresh attractive blue cloth, near fine, appears unused. PARUSNIKOVÁ, ZUZANA / COHEN, ROBERT S., ed. . Rethinking Popper. Edited by Zusanna Parusnikova and Robert S. Cohen. Dordrecht]: Springer, 2009, vii, 431pp., . Boston studies in the philosophy of science v. 272. - In September 2007, more than 100 philosophers came to Prague with the determination to approach Karl Poppers philosophy as a source of inspiration in many areas of our intellectual endeavor. This volume is a result of that effort. Topics cover Poppers views on rationality, scientific methodology, the evolution of knowledge and democracy; and since Poppers philosophy has always had a strong interdisciplinary influence, part of the volume discusses the impact of his ideas in such areas as education, economics, psychology, biology, or ethics.The concept of falsification, the problem of demarcation, the ban on induction, or the role of the empirical basis, along with the provocative parallels between historicism, holism and totalitarianism, have always caused controversies. The aim of this volume is not to smooth them but show them as a challenge. - CONTENTS: pt. I, Reason, logic, science.
