Perhaps the most important function of the demarcation between science and non-science is to refuse political and religious authorities the right to pass biding judgements on the truth of certain statements of fact.

Summary

Karl Popper is one of the greatest and most influential philosophers of the twentieth century. Originally published in German in 2000, Herbert Keuth’s book is a systematic exposition of Popper’s philosophy covering the philosophy of science (Part 1); social philosophy (Part 2); and metaphysics (Part 3). More comprehensive than any current introduction to Popper, it is suitable for courses in the philosophy of science and the philosophy of social science.
