Abstract

Eines der Grundlagenwerke des bedeutenden Philosophen und Begründers des kritischen Rationalismus. Die Wahrheit ist objektiv und absolut. Aber wir können niemals sicher sein, daß wir die Wahrheit, die wir suchen, gefunden haben. Unser Wissen ist immer Vermutungswissen. Doch wir können unsere Vermutungen (unsere Theorien) kritisch überprüfen, unsere Fehlurteile entdecken und aus unseren Irrtümern lernen. Popper hat mit seiner Theiorie des Vermutungswissens und mit seiner Theorie der objektiven Erkenntnis ein neues Bild von Wissenschaft und des erkennenden, des wahrheitssuchenden Menschen geschaffen

Abstract

The great dream of philosophers and scientists for millennia has been to give us a complete account of the order of things. A powerful articulation of such a dream in this century has been found in the idea of a unity of science. With this manifesto, John Dupre systematically attacks the ideal of scientific unity by showing how its underlying assumptions are at odds with the central conclusions of science itself. In its stead, the author gives us a metaphysics much more in keeping with what science tells us about the world. Elegantly written and compellingly argued, this provocative book will be important reading for all philosophers and scholars of science. Dupre's book is original, lucid and confident, without being eccentric, polemical or arrogant. It deserves close attention...Dupre insists that there is no general scientific method, process, or attitude...He pins down the notion of the unity of science as a form of scientism appropriate only to a Utopia or to totalitarianism. He notes that 'paradoxically, with the disunity of science comes a kind of unity of knowledge.' That is why, to my mind, this is just the kind of philosophical teaching that is needed to close the gap between the two cultures. -- John Ziman Nature The thesis of 'disorder' has revolutionary implications for the practice of science...[This book] should be read by every student of the subject as an antidote to current philosophical correctness, and it should indeed suggest to professionals that many of the fashionable empires of analytic philosophy as well as philosophy of science are not well-clothed. -- Mary Hesse International Studies in the History and Philosophy of Science
