One of the most original thinkers of the century, Karl Popper has
inspired generations of philosophers, historians, and politicians.
This collection of papers, specially written for this volume,
offers fresh philosophical examination of key themes in Popper's
philosophy, including philosophy of knowledge, science and
political philosophy.
Drawing from some of Popper's most important works, contributors
address his solution to the problem of induction, his views on
conventionalism and criticism in an open society, and his unique
position in 20th century philosophy. They also examine the current
relevance of Popper to understanding liberal democracy, his
critique of tribalism and his relationship with analytic philosophy
in general - and with Wittgenstein in particular - as well as
drawing on the studies of Isaac Newton and Albert Einstein to
assess Popper's conception of science.
