This collection of the writings of Paul Feyerabend is focused on
his philosophy of quantum physics, the hotbed of the key issues of
his most debated ideas. Written between 1948 and 1970, these
writings come from his first and most productive period. These
early works are important for two main reasons. First, they
document Feyerabend's deep concern with the philosophical
implications of quantum physics and its interpretations. These
ideas were paid less attention in the following two decades.
Second, the writings provide the crucial background for
Feyerabend's critiques of Karl Popper and Thomas Kuhn. Although
rarely considered by scholars, Feyerabend's early work culminated
in the first version of Against Method. These writings guided him
on all the key issues of his most well-known and debated theses,
such as the incommensurability thesis, the principles of
proliferation and tenacity, and his particular version of
relativism, and more specifically on quantum mechanics.
