Features: As one of the most important thinkers of the 20th century, Popper has set the standard for our thinking in metaphysics, philosophy of science, epistemology, and social philosophy. Whether one agrees with him or not, no one can avoid this standard: "Only in an open mind and society can we engage in true, free thinking." The 30 essays selected from Popper's extensive works discuss, develop, and defend this standard. These 30 selected essays constitute the main body of this book.
