On its publication in 1957, The Poverty of Historicism was hailed
by Arthur Koestler as 'probably the only book published this year
which will outlive the century.' A devastating criticism of fixed
and predictable laws in history, Popper dedicated the book to all
those 'who fell victim to the fascist and communist belief in
Inexorable Laws of Historical Destiny.' Short and beautifully
written, it has inspired generations of readers, intellectuals and
policy makers. One of the most important books on the social
sciences since the Second World War, it is a searing insight into
the ideas of this great thinker.
